  • Back to Eden Gardening with Mark & Diane McOmber. 10 years ago we installed a wood chip garden for the documentary BACK TO EDEN. During the last decade, we have grown our own vegetables and fruits while practicing organic gardening methods. We are excited to share with you the many benefits of mulch and to teach you how to grow food in your home garden.

    Hi there, where I live, (Eastern part Sydney, Australia) sweet potatoes grow like weeds. I grow mine in large container so it doesn't invade other parts of the garden. I let the vines grow up a trellis. Young shoots and leaves can be picked over and over (eaten like spinach) it doesn't harm the tubers. Towards the end of the season, tip the container over and harvest the sweet potatoes. Keep some slips (the vines) for the next growing season.

    Thank you for sharing. The Lord literally brought me so many sweet potatoes to be planted in our land with so many deer. I said Lord idk how this is going to work and here we are at this video. God is so good!

    Hello Mark. I don't think you're answering questions but if you happen to see mine, I'm wondering why you don't do videos any longer? I enjoy them. Unless its a personal reason then its none of my biz! :) Thanks for the videos. :)

    I anticipate and look forward to knowing that deer will be inevitably attracted to my one acre garden.
    More food for Me from My garden is all that they are. And more organic blood and bone meal for My garden as well. 😄 Ten deer will provide Me far far more food than those sweet potatoes greens would have.
    And I have a 40 foot long - 10 foot wide - 10 foot tall shipping container turned deep freezer. 😄

    I think I've watched this video five times now, and it's still so neat to watch. Nearly all other sweet potato harvests I've seen on UA-cam involve so much struggling and broken tubers. But that BTE soil and much is so light and fluffy, those sweet potatoes come out with so little effort, and relatively clean! How dry had it been leading up to that harvest?

    Harvesting sweet potatoes is so fun! This was our first year back to Eden gardening and the first year we got a good harvest. Previous years groundhogs would keep munching the leaves and we didn't get many potatoes.

    Alabama here.
    I coat my Sweet Potatoes in coconut oil before baking. This makes the peelings
    and the potato inside soft and easy to deal with. Poking the foil would not work with this method
    but I love the way the potatoes come out.
    I remember seeing you on BTE a few years back and you just popped up on my youtube sight.
    Good to see you two again. I am guessing your daughter is well into her teens now.
    May Yehovah continue to bless you greatly.

    Deer repellent that works for me, is bars of Irish spring soap! I had my a problem and it kept the deer away, but if go through dry weather you might want to take a knife and scrape the dry soap to release its scent. I put a hole in the soap and hang it from my fence post!

    Hi! I’ve found your UA-cam page and it has been so helpful. My friend and I felt called to create a Back to Eden Garden at her house for this upcoming year. We did the newspaper, compost, and woodchips. However- since it was March and we weren’t sure, we bought single processed bark mulch, which now we realize isn’t what you’re supposed to use. Since we purchased it- do you have any suggestions for us to amend the compost or do you think we will be ok? We are going to add some more of her composed horse manure when we plant and maybe some blood meal to help add nitrogen to the soil. Thanks so much! I’ll keep enjoying your videos!

    Actually poking holes lets the steam out. If you ever have one blow up in your stove you won’t forget it.

    I think the deer helped by eating the leaves ans all the nutrients went back into the tators.

    Does sweet potatoes need full sun.

    • @lighthousesteps4571
      @lighthousesteps4571 2 роки тому

      Any root or fruit need full sun, so yes they need full sun. Takes about 4 warm months to grow em.

    Not so much deer but rabbits ate my leaves, but not nearly as devastated as what the deer did to yours. Wonder if when the soil is loose and you can find potatoes easy, that when it is tighter, and the soil was equally loose to start with, if this might just be an indication of crowded sweet potatoes? Thoughts?
