Need a good laugh this morning. I was listening to the livestream Saturday night during the seed giveaway. Thought I heard my name called, I was in the process of writing y’all with my Email address when it crossed my mind that I might ought to go back and listen again. Sure enough, my name was not called out, evidently I fell asleep and dreamed my name was called 😂
My Dexter bull will push the babies up to their mamas with his head and then stand between people his family.
I’ve seen him gently push a ewe away from a heifer in labor also.
My heifers are protective too, but our bull takes his role as Dad seriously 😊
A Taiwanese student friend cooked the sweet potato stems a couple minutes, then added the leaves for about a minute, to wilt them, and a little salt to flavor. I had told her I was growing sweet potatoes and she asked me to bring her some of the leaves and stems. Blessings y'all...
"cooked" the stems. How?
I never knew my grandfather and my father died when I was a young man. That intro brought a tear to my eye. I always enjoy learning from your knowledge and wisdom. Keep up the great work Danny.
Appreciating watching you adapt and adjust to your new physical self. I spent 30 years working with people with all types of disabilities, showing them how they can still live independently...just doing what they love a little differently. I am not an occupational or physical therapist, just used some common sense when problem solving. The first step was to answer the question "If you can't do it this way, what way can you?" Now with arthritic knees and shoulders, myself, your journey has given me new ideas for my own gardening tasks. THank you so much.
For me this has been one of the best sweet potato videos. I really liked seeing you pulling them off and preparing them like that. You were vary thorough and explained it well. Thank you for teaching us.
Yep, I agree!
What an excellent video Ms Lippy is an excellent helper the video is an excellent tutorial on how to plant sweet potatoes I would have never known how to plant them right thank you so much and Ms Wanda does an excellent job as a camera lady it sure cheered me up Monday morning since I'm still sick not able to do alot still being sick have to feed my chickens they don't like anyone in the hen house I also love the stick fork you made for pushing the potato vine into the ground and yes Ms Lippy did a good job with the fork stick if you could all please send healing prayers my husband is now sick with what ever I have his amune system is weak due to his cancer and now I just found out my son who checks on us and brings us what ever we need is now sick to he is our life saver when our house was on fire he dove threw a window to save our lives he was badly injured but still survived so he means so much to us thank you so much for this video I've learned alot being a newbie to growing a sweet potatoes thank you and God bless
LOVE the music! We need that nowadays. Peaceful!💖💞
Always more fun in the garden with friends 👍👍😁😄
I love that old tractor . Everything is so clean and beautiful .watched till the end your welcome. Mama loves her greens
Thankyou that was great, now it’s time for me to get serious about sweet potatoes, one thing I have not yet mastered 🙏🏻
Congrats Danny on getting parts on so happy for you.
I worked on a small allotment one summer alongside others. Learned as I went and with help from the old lady who owned the land. It's hard work for sure but honest work and I might be partial but the lettuce I grew was the best I ever ate!
That tractor though ❤ The tomatoes and squash look amazing. I still have snow on the ground, so no planting yet. Looking at the onions like though, reminds me of how my parents use to garden. Straight in the ground, vertical rows and pretty as ever. He always had the best luck, but then he had my brother and me to pull the weeds every night after school 😂 Thank you for sharing with us. I am so anxious to start my potatoes this spring.😀
This made me want a tractor so bad. Haha.
I can confirm that planting in dirt is the easiest way to get slips, or what my dad called draws (that may not be the correct term, but its what my dad called them). My family used to do what's called market gardening now, we grew sweet potatoes for a living about 50 miles north of DSH. My dad would disc up an area and we would rake smooth the dirt and put in some stakes and strings to mark off an area of about 9' x 30,' sometimes longer. We would place the potatoes in the dirt like puzzle piece down the length of the marked off area, then cover with about 6 or more inches of dirt and make what looked like a raised bed. I was young when we did this so I'm going by memory. Then we would place clear plastic over it and cover the edges with dirt (similar environment to the green house and the cold frame Mr. Danny used last year). Once the plants started poking through the dirt my dad would give them some air and head space by placing a few piece of firewood under the edge here and there. And then eventually take the plastic off. When the plants were about 6-8 inches (sometimes longer, about 10 inches if we were slow in planting), we would "pull draws." Since we pulled so many, we didn't cut every plant, but I can remember my mom cutting some of the roots with a huge knife. I don't know if it was because they were too long or what. I'll have to ask her. Some of you folks probably know the reason. I do remember placing them in water. We used a setter hooked to a tractor to set them out in raised rows. There were trays to hold the plants and we placed them by hand into clips that went down into the ground. Lots of work, didn't always feel enthusiastic about it then as a kid, but good memories.
Thank you for sharing, think I'll try your method 🙂
THANKU FOR THE SWEET POTATO LESSONS GOD BLESS YOU
ALL MY SWEET POTATO MISTAKES LISTED IN ONE VIDEO!! 🙋♀️Thank you, Mr Danny! 🤦♀️
OMG I HEAR YOU SISTER!!!!!! Next year though, next year we'll have a bumper crop!
You were quiet this time Ms Wanda! I bet you three just have a blast together laughing! You all compliment each others senses of humor!
Most informative video I’ve seen yet. I have some slips started (my first time) and need to get them planted up but will have to plant them in grow bags since we didn’t get a garden tilled up in time but turns out it was a good thing because I also learned from you guys that the garden needs shade from the harshest time of the day and that will change where we thought we needed to put the garden. Thank you!
May God bless you for all you do
I've been following along with Danny's Sweet Potato Manual as you go through the stages of preparing and planting the slips. Having the photos in the manual and the videos are very helpful. Ms. Lippy is a great helper. Thanks for another great video. Take care.
Where do you get his sweet potato manual? I was wondering how he started his potatoes. Do they need to start to root (2 eyes each potato) before he planted them in the shallow bin or the deep pot?
@@notmeee8294 look in the description for the Etsy shop for Deep South Homestead. That is where to find it.

This was awesome! I did not know how to do and I just planted two yesterday but not deep enough so repotting now that I know how. I'm going to plant in large grow bags so I can cover. I live in north central Wisconsin. My precious daughter Joyell has stage four metastatic breast cancer so I really need to grow!! Blessing and Thank you!!!
Blessings Rhonda, to you and Joyell! I still miss my precious Chelsea, who transitioned to Angel when she was 34. keeping my hands in the dirt and breathing free air is soul saving. Keep growing food, sharing the bounty, and loving your kids!
Rhonda enter the name Joe Tippin in the search bar and read his cancer story it might just work for your daughter hopefully? prayers to you and your family!
Prayers for your daughter and your family 🙏
Hello Danny and Wanda! Thank you for the great vide pool showing everything about planting sweet potatoes slips! Looks so nice there! God bless and keep you!
I have learned many things from you over the years Danny. Your a good teacher!
Wonderful! We have never grown sweet potatoes. Mr Danny, you made it look so simple. Thank y’all so much.
I made the Pear Coffee Can Picker last year and put up 50 Quarts!!! Thx So Much
Wanda you don't need the ranger. Just go get the tractor. Use the bucket and you can just pick them up and dump them on their feet again. Lol.
I gotta make one of those planting sticks.
Great video with lessons and laughter. Thanks Danny, Ms Wanda and Ms Lippy. 💕from Ky.
I love y'all and love your channel. More genuine than most... Appreciate ya
Awesome and informative video. Love seeing channel collaborate. Love both of your channels. Thank you for sharing
Very good my friends , like Miss Wanda said, you three are like a well oiled machine ! Thanks for sharing !
This is one of the best channels on UA-cam. There is so much knowledge and wisdom in these videos. We are looking forward to getting some of this done. Thank you.
First year trying to group sweet potatoes.
Used the bury merged under grow light after soaking potato first over night.
9 slips with short roots and tall stems.
Soaking in water now and will plant in week or so.
Liked your hill and forked stick plant technique.
Thank you for sharing!
Good Morning to all ...
Danny and Wanda Thanks...
Looking forward to planting here but currently snowing and expecting two inches of snow today in Houghton Lake Michigan...😊
I thank you so much for giving me this information about sweet-potato slips. I now have the CORRECT information to get this done! I might be too late for this year but I will be a super star next year, God willing! Thank God for you guys! Just watching and listening to y'all makes my spirit easy and light. God Bless!
This was lovely- thoroughly enjoyed visiting with y’all this afternoon.😊
my first time slips are finally coming up! 7 percent humidity here! i have to water almost daily in containers. i love this video! thank you so much.
what a great machine. Be wonderful to have one like it if we had a property where we could use it.
☀️Good Morning Danny and Wanda and your guess Miss Libby thanks for sharing the tip on the sweet potato slips and how to plant and space them.
I can not imagine the laughing and cutting up y'all did in the brief amount of time Miss Lippy was there. You are a joy to watch and you sweeten a difficult day. Blessings always, g.
Oh my goodness….just found this. I love these people!
Ms. Lippy told me to check ya'll out, so glad I did!
We grew sweet potatoes in our high tunnel and are just getting ready to harvest mid December again. Three of our favorite people Mr Danny Ms Wanda and Ms Lippy. What a night to find this video. Wishing y'all a blessed day.
Nothing like planting with a friend!
The clear blue sky is beautiful! What a great day to plant! :)
Beautiful visit and as always so informative...
I planted my sweet potato slips because you taught me how Mr. Danny .
God bless you & Mrs Wanda & your Beautiful visitor Ms. Lippy who Ive came to love also !!!
Josette
Texas 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜💜💜💜👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for the lesson on sweet potatoes. Ms. Lippy is a good helper.
I'm in the process of planting my sweet potato slips from my 5 y/o daughters project. Sweet potato greens are amazing! I put them in with my okra and tomato stir-fry.
Very helpful video. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge. I grow various microgreens 🌱 & sprouts inside for the family (eat half of each batch & plant the other half in my yard), but now I’m excited to try growing sweet potatoes 🍠 & red potatoes. 🥰
Many of the plants I grow are entirely edible (roots, stems, leaves, pods & flowers: Speckled pea, red arrow radish, purple Rambo radish, nasturtium, amaranth, broccoli, mustard, arugula, fava broad bean, adzuki bean, & green lentils). All of my life I’ve told people that I should have grown up on a farm (like my grandmother) rather than the beach…and that was before I started growing anything. I look forward to your videos daily.
good ole Mississippi soil - good job Danny!
It's kewl to see Ms. Lippy. I hear about her in the Chat on Saturdays, but have never seen her. Bless your hearts.
I really appreciate your channel. I have stepped up my gardening this year to try to produce more of what we eat. I have probably done lots of things wrong with my sweet taters this year, but I'm going to give it my best shot anyway.Thanks for the helpful tips!
finally got warm enough weather up in MN. To get my slips in. That planting stick. Is GREAT. No bending over. Drop slips along row. walk back and push them in.
Thanks for sharing how you plant the slips. Like the easy stick.
Whew!! 2:28
New leaves on the trees and a beautiful blue sky, LOVE to see it! 😃 Come on spring, we've lots to do. 🌷🌻🍀🌿🌾🌱
Oh Man, this is such a great video :-D! I thought I was back among my Carolina relatives! I learned SO much from y'all's conversation, even the aside comments! Your visitor is a peach, too.
And Wanda, you are a SUPERLATIVE camera operator!
PERFECT! Thank you all!
God Bless all of us who work to make the world a better place.
Well this old girl learned a lot from this video. And I thank you 3 very much. Mrs Wanda has a good steady hand for videoing. Blessings !!! 😍✝️💟
Thank you so much for these videos. I’m a Southern city girl, but I’ve taken to watching videos to grow slips. I was just about to snatch them up and put them in water until I found your video. I appreciate, Y’all.
I just found your channel today, and this video was awesome! Best potato growing video I ever seen! Thank you!
thank you for this knowledge... I had no idea sweet potatoes could be buried that deep and still push up slips... I'm trying this method starting today...
Speak softly and carry a forked stick. Lol
What a great idea! Bless Ya'll
I'm a new subscriber, wish I'd found you a long time ago Danny. I absolutely love your video's and your "way" of simply breaking down what we should know. It is obvious you love what you do. Now, I can love watching and learning the huge amount of knowledge that you have. Please don't change a thing you're doing, God bless.
I so enjoyed watching this clip. I learn a lot from y’all. Thank y’all. This was especially great for me. I love gardening and raising animals.
Such a fun and informative video.
WOW Danny I learned so much today about growing sweet potatoes. Thank you
This video comes at a great time for me. I am going to be planting my slips Monday after our last cold snap I hope. Still waiting to plant tomatoes as well. Going to be 39 this weekend in Columbus Georgia.
Thank you sir, I just learned that I have a lot of sweet potatoe slips growing.
I want some of the leaves to stuff with an onion, mint seasoned rice mixture & roll up into a recipe called Dolmades.
Wow, didn’t take long for your new hardware to be put on 👍🙏🏼
This is the first of your vids I've seen. I have garden for years but I feel I can learn a lot from you. I love your no bend planting stick. I subscribed.
Thanks for the info, i will try to put it to good use
this was amazing!!! Dying to start a garden thanks for the knowledge and sharing it!!
Thank You for this. I learned a lot today. I’m gonna go buy your books now.
Got my greenbeans, corn,tomatos,bell peppers,okra,carrots,onions,kale,leeks,beets,potatoes, Swiss chard all coming up my corn is doing great! Carrots not so good but praying they come on with it. Waiting on cucumbers to pop up . First garden so very excited I planted a lot! Hoping I can harvest a good amount as my family hasn’t stocked for what’s coming I also bought 2 more dehydrators and will do succession planting and making pasta so when family says hungry I hope to help them
You can take those leaves and dry them, and powder them for a great green drink full of nutrients. I put it in soups, too. They also make good fresh salads. That's going to be one healthy cow.
I have one grandpa sweet potato that I keep planting over and over every year and it produces a big yield every year. I dig it with the rest and just replant it every spring. Big old monster. Lol. They are so versatile . You can grow the slips in a glass, or like you just did. or grow the vines long and then divide them at the joints, and they will grow their own roots. Just like propagating wandering jew plant, or other vines.
My grandaddy made his rows up the same way, he loved his Cub tractor.
I grew 6 1/2 lbs in a 8 gallon bucket. 1 potato was 1 1/2 lbs. I was so excited. I can’t wait to do it again. I want an entire bed for sweet potatoes next year. Get out of the bucket. Now I’m growing carrots in the same bucket. Can’t wait to see what we get.
Love the tractor!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!
That forked stick is sweet! Just the right amount of space and narrow dimension for that... Perfect
This is awesome! Gonna try that next year!
This is Amazing Thx for the info !
I learned so much!! Thank you!!
Thank you. So glad I ran across your video. Made me remember what I had forgotten about raising sweet potatoes. I'd tried the jar thing doesn't work very well. Thanks again
Danny, In the past I have just cut slips and stuck them in the bed. They took root and grew well.
Wow. Great info. Thanks!
working is way more fun with friends helping 💗💗💗
great video guys. ❤
Awesome Team Work
Wonderful sweet potato video 👍 I tried to grow sweet potatoes a couple of years ago, course No success. Thank you I know what to do now. God bless you and your farm 🙏🤗💖🐕🐾🐾🐈
Those rows look good Danny! We're going to make a Farmall man out of you yet!
I don’t know which I’m more envious of... your tractor setup or your beautiful dark soil!!! I have neither.
Found your channel after Off-grid with Doug and Stacy mentioned you! Great Video! Hoping I can maybe grow some sweet potatoes here in lower Michigan
Great video. Thank you very much. God bless.
