Those air potatoes you call are what we plant instead of the tubers. My grandma plants them in a sack mid-year and they are usually ready to be harvested for Christmas here in the PH. I just grabbed a few last time I visited them and will try to plant some for myself. I'm exited!
Congrats 😊
I am so happy for you. I 8:38 love how grateful you are with your harvest every time you pull something out you end up, saying thank God. So awesome to see your abundance and how much you appreciate it. God bless you.
Thank you so much! Growing things beyond greens can be challenging in this shaded garden. Tubers particularly surprises me as you grow them for months unable to peek at all!
OMG! I'm so excited about this. This season I'm going to find this and grow this beautiful vegetable. Wendi Phan is way ahead of the curve. Thank you Wendi for all your content and productions.
Awesome!
Pretty cool looking!
Good stuff! : )
Way to go Wendi!!
🤗
Those are huge. Good job!
Thank you! :D
It's amazing how lush and beautiful this area becomes during the spring and summer months.😊
Yes those are the seasons when there's decent sun in the garden. :D
This was an awesome video! Gets me excited to try and grow some Ube too 🌱
Go for it! Good luck! 👍🤗
Wendi's channel is so inspiring. I've been looking into Ube and will try for the first time this spring in zone 5.
Hope you get a hold of them! Check Asian markets. So fun growing these high calorie food. 🤗
I Yam thankful for this you Tuber
🤣🤣👏👍🫶
the purple yam make a beautiful pot plant indoor.😀
Absolutely!! 💜💜💜
Ube vine goes dormant around December/January here in West Palm. Much later than air potatoes (Dioscorea bulbifera)
Jan is usually coldest time of year for So Cal. Stems usually stay green, but leaves are all dry.
Nice Job
Thank you! Cheers!
Not many people would think to wear purple when they harvest purple yams. You are truly bonding with your garden!
Good luck with your Vietnamese tubers.
☮️♥️🙏🏻
Haha I really wasn't thinking about it, guess we're just in sync. :D Thank you, your wish is much needed!
Congratulations on your successful harvest. Best wishes for the new growing season.
Thank you my friend! :)
Awesome harvest!!! I love ube!! Thank you for this vid.
Non related ..i was wondering if you can help me out. So I have raised beds and im growing for food - right now I have collard greens, peppers eggplant and just planted beans, tomatoes, strawberries… however recently i see a bunch of poop on the bed… might be opossum or racoon. I remove them when I see them but im wondering if and how long do I have to wait to harvest my crops? The other day I forgot to remove them and then all day it rained hard so most of the poop is just mixed in the soil…. Im unsure what is safe? Sorry for the long comment!
We have a small lot as well and every inch is accounted for by plants/yard. Our garden we're trying a new raised bed for our sweet potatoes this year, something I saw a guy in Vietnam do. Last years in the ground didn't do well at all. Ube experience wasn't good either. Those monster ones you pulled out, wow. Meals for weeks. ha.
Auntie, they're so big.
Wendy, where did you get your UBE tubers? I have never seen them in any stores here in socal.
Can I make a wound for the branch,so I can plant in the other vase for expansion?
ROFL Kisses the yam, proceeds to spit dirt out 🤣
😂🤣 pretty much.
Have you ever grown a Beni Imo Sweet Potato?
Do you sell root cuttings?
Good Morning
Omg it's UWI in my place ( white colour not purple ). It's nice .
Kaget juga ditanam dikebun , sudah jarang ditemukan apalagi ini unggu.
Awesome , how long time grow ?
Ube purple , yeay
Thank you for sharing
The white one is just as tasty, and the purple has more nutritional benefits. Happy gardening! :D
😆😅🤣wonderful. here in the Philippines, they can grow as much as 5x of the biggest you got. suggest you raise your soil 2 feet up - put up a board or something and fill it in with loam soil amended with the minerals you say you add which is wonderful practice. that will allow the roots to easily penetrate and form and when ready to harvest, you just remove the board you put up and that will expose the harvest without your having to dig. here the practice is to stack 3 used tires and plant a single plant which will grow huge. air potatoes here grow to as big as a fist but the winter will not allow that there...blessings
Great suggestions! If I had room for tires that is great idea. The beauty of living in the tropics where these plants excel. I will have to try that in the tropics. :) How many months does it take for tubers to get 5x the size? Is there a time of year you plant them in the Philippines?
@@wendiland well, the growing season here in the Philippines is, well, the whole year. you can plant during the rains which start end of May but with the climate changing, maybe June, even July. then let it grow until the rains stop around September but there would be intermittent until December, even January. to simplify this, let the plant die back its foliage in the summer heat which start March, April being the hottest month usually but early May can also be really hot. that is when you harvest. if you don't, it will grow back...blessings
@@paulbraga4460 It sounds like this plant doesn't like the extreme heat? Does the tuber not rot planting before the rainy season? Thank you for the tips! I think Vietnam should have very similar weather to the Philippines.
@@wendiland climate, not weather which is your day to day things. climate is the repeating pattern of like in the Philippines we have 2 seasons - rainy and summer, versus 4 in the U.S. the tuber will not rot if already established with shoots all around. the heat affects the plant in that it dies back or better put - stop growing foliage. why some harvest the crop only after 2 years or even more...watch youtube videos from the Philippines - google "paano magtanim ng ube" and you will see how they cut up the tuber into pieces which as long as there is enough skin on them will grow shoots....blessings
Hello may I know if you are selling some ube seedling
Mam Wendi, what variety of Ube your harvest?
I don’t know the name. It’s the purple yam that Vietnam and Philippines grow.
How many months did they grow. To get that big.
Mine probably around 8 months , but actually growth probably 6 months.
Where did you get your ube purple yam tubers???
Was from a friend. Been growing for years.
Where do you get the Ube to plant?
I’ve been growing them for quite few years now. U can check your local Asian market.
Can you eat the greens like sweet potatoes?
My understanding is true yam (Dioscorea) leaves are not edible, unlike sweet potato leaves.
So I wouldn't try it.
@@ausfoodgarden Yup, leaves are not edible, and tubers must be fully cooked to safely consume.
Where do i find REAL ube to plant? TX here and I cant find any
They are not easy to come around, but check Asian markets.
Candied purple yam pie?
Hmm…certainly can. In the Philippines, they make a lot of dessert with it.
Wendi, is there a reason you grow these ube UP a trellis instead of letting them sprawl? It’s a sweet potato! Everywhere the stem touches the ground, there’s a high probability you’d get more full size sweet potatoes!
The first year I grew sweets, i grew 5 slips in a 4’x8’ bed. They vined out everywhere and went into the grass.
I got 152 POUNDS of sweet potatoes from those five slips.
I feel if the "air potatoes" were touching the ground, it would have propagated into additional plants. That's my theory at least.
There's lack of sun and space here. Only place they can sprawl is the walkway and there's no sun. These are not sweet potatoes. It's so confusing when the market keeps calling SP "ube". Here's a video that explains it: ua-cam.com/video/kgVv-Gzo5jc/v-deo.html 152 LBS!! That's amazing!!!
@@wendiland Thanks for the video! ❤️
@@wendiland So, years ago, I watched one of your bitter melon videos and decided to start growing some. I used to live in Japan and wanted to try to make my own vegan version of Goya Chanpuru.
I’ve been growing it EVERY YEAR since I saw your video! THANK YOU! ❤️😋❤️
Ube are NOT sweet potatoes. They are a completely unrelated climbing vine.
Can I ask for tuber to plant please!
I can pay
I will need to see if I have enough to share. Haha please email info@Wendiland.com thank you!
Ube is considered to be a survival crop here in the US and I'd have to agree after eating it several times but not so in the Philippines or to Filipinos. My sister-in-law uses it in her baking and other Filipino friends make other sweet desserts with it. They're both very happy when I give them large head-sized roots that I grew in grow bags. I've left a couple in the bags over two years (I'm in south Florida). I had to stop growing them because they are so aggressive growers, dare I say, invasive and they grow all over my other vegetables, weighing them down and killing them. Aside from the beautiful purple color it provides, I'm not a big fan.
There’s always a flip side to things…they don’t grow as vigorous here…if you make a dedicated bed for them, will the roots trail and come up elsewhere?
@@wendiland LOL a "flip" side to things, huh?. I don't know about the roots. I don't have much space in my yard, and I never valued Ube enough to dedicate an entire bed to them. I do know the vines would quickly outgrow the bed and sprawl all over the place until it reaches something it can wrap around and climb, like a fence, trellis, or tree.

Wendy,you are a very pretty girl,do you ever make it out here to California 🎉
Thank you, I am based in CA! Zone 10 :)
@wendiland oh nice, im Aaron from san jose,ca,. If you like i could give you my email would you like to chat sometime but if your too busy i understand.?
@@aaronweiser5421 Hi Aaron, Nice to meet you! You can post your messages here, or in the "Community" tab, I will see them. :)
một khu vườn đẹp, quá tuyệt vời. tôi rất thích. tôi cũng đang tập làm YTB. rất muốn được tương tác với các bạn
Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều. Chúc bạn làm youtube may mắn!
wao. cãm ơn bạn rất nhiều@@wendiland
Wendi is so beautiful. If she cloned herself she could sell the clones for alot money, to guys that wish they had her as a wife. I'd want one.
Haha as long as my clones won't be out there committing crimes that's not a bad idea.
So, what ‘must’ we know before we plant. You didn’t address that question at all.
