PART 3 - HOW TO TURN 1 SWEET POTATO INTO 100 SWEET POTATOES - PREPARING & PLANTING INTO

Now we plant the Sweet Potato Plants (Slips) into the ground. This is probably the most important video in the series, as I show how to separate 43 slips from the original potato pieces, prepare and fertilize the potato bed, and then how to plant them into the ground. I waited 2 days to release this video to go back and show them again, so everyone could see how well this method works.

Thank you. I watered them today. They are all about 1 foot high now, and all have survived .

This is my first time doing this, thank you so much from central Texas ❤

Once you have done it, you will probably grow them every year. Thanks for watching.

I’m trying to grow Slips but think I have started too late but we’ll see. If I have will start early next year. Thank you for showing us how to do this.

If you get a few slips - go ahead and plant them in the ground and let them run a bit. Then cut and plant them like I did in this video. Here's the link... ua-cam.com/video/rTgctpGo9l4/v-deo.html You only need 3 months of warm weather after you plant the slips in the mounds... Thanks for watching.

Thankyou very much for this tutorial this is So helpful I will be planting mine in the green house as I live in Canada and that will guarantee the temperature perameters

[@TheBackGardenYard]

That sounds like a good plan. Thanks for watching. I have an update on my sweet potatoes coming out in early June.

How deep should your container be if you are growing sweet potatoes in containers?

[@TheBackGardenYard]

If you check out today's video, link - ua-cam.com/video/QqtWnNrWnmc/v-deo.html I show my sweet potato crop in the garden. You will notice I put some slips into a container that is about 2 feet deep, and they are not doing nearly as well as those planted into the garden. So I believe you may need a 3ft deep and 3 ft wide container to grow the sweet potatoes and get a good harvest. Thanks for the question.
