I used the soil method for slips this year and I have grown more than I could ever use, so Ive been sharing them with gardeners in my community.
Next time, when you have a storm coming in, it would be pretty neat if you would put a camera that has battery power and a light that has battery power on some of your plants during the storm with a timer on it to see how fast they're growing per hour!
Yes! A time lapse video of growth like that caught on camera would be awesome! 👍
I appreciate every one of your videos. There's NEVER ANY nonsense. Every video PERTAINS to the subject matter!!
Oooh I'd love to get your books! Gotta start saving my pennies! Thank you again for a great lesson on potatoes!
I'm planting sweet potatoes for the first time this year and I can use all the tips you can throw at me. All the vegetables look so pretty and green. I'm happy to hear everyone survived the electrical storm and the plants are growing like crazy.
We sell the manual on our Etsy store for growing them.
I will for sure be checking it out. Thank you.😀
I watched every one of his sweet potato videos and got the manual. Made some awesome sweet potatoes. Hope yours are great too
I just got my sweet potato manual yesterday plus some Cherokee tan pumpkin seeds. I’m going to share the seeds with some friends and see how they grow up here in East Tennessee.
They were originally grown in Tennessee by the Cherokee Indians.
watched my dad grow sweet potatoes slips for years. but I had some events that stopped me from getting started so I have taken a short cut. using a jar and sweet potato to start my slips. they are coming along well considering the short cut. scene my daughter has been thur cancer treatments her whole body had changed. she not able to eat what she used to because it changed the taste, effect and tolerance of foods. she never liked sweet potatoes and now it's because one of her favorite foods. so the sweet potatoes crop has enlarge this year. And she used to love sweet peas and can't handle them now. folks it a cruel disease and so many people are suffering from it and the after effects. blessings to everyone 🙏
Sweet potatoes are good for cancer. Just don't add sugar to them. Sugar and cancer is a no no. Cancer cannot grow in an oxygenated body or an alkaline body. Cancer loves acid.
Very interesting how the plants grew so much. You know I'm so glad y'all made it through the storm. God bless 🙏🙏✝️
I noticed this with my poll beans I planted the other day with a lightning storm I had yesterday never knew that was a thing I'll have to watch your video on that. I just picked up chickens and fairly new to being self sufficient but doing this for my kids so they can grow up knowing how to live off the land when 💩 hits the fan. Love your videos thanks for sharing your knowledge
So glad that we bought your manual. I have been having some issues with my sweet potatoes and now we are having success. Thank you!!!
I'm thankful ya'll made it through the storm well. You were in my prayers. I'm 60 miles north of Birmingham. i have a son and his family on a small homestead east of Mobile. I was watching the live weather on FOX in Birmingham and Mobile. Thanks for all the great tips here. I'm growing my first sweet potatoes this season.
I ordered, and just received, all three planting manuals! Thank you for signing them, Danny. Can't wait to put them to use.
Got mine the other day. Love them. Come in handy when I planted my carrots the other day. Thank you so much for taking the time to writing the manuals. Love watching you all on your UA-cam channel 🥰
This is my first year doin sweet taters our middle and youngest children love them. I got the manual way back a month or so ago it was so good and I have now doubt I will have great taters this year because of your help! I ordered and printed the carrot manual yesterday too, Ive done carrots twice with not the greatest results so Im hoping to improve on those this year at your help as well! Trying to do all I can to help feed our family, praying that God picks up where I fail in these times. Thanks for all your help Danny and Wanda!
Good morning y'all, I loved seeing this video. This is so refreshing and I have been waiting to see the electrical storms you were talking about brother Danny on the growth of the plants. This was really exciting! Wanda your flowers are absolutely gorgeous! Blessings we love you, your Ocala family
nice to see you sharing your knowledge on growing.
I have several black tubs like the one you showed with slips growing in. A few years ago, I drilled holes around the side about halfway down. I "slip" the slips into the holes as I fill it, then grow flowers or a pepper etc in the top. Works out pretty well for me.
Thank y'all. I have all y'all's books. Sniw is still flying here. Folks tell me not to put any plants out till mother's day.
Blessings, julie
Same! My plants had exploded after the storm too!
I think that storm the other day aged me too.Whew! That wind was something else!
I'm a recent subscriber, however, I'm finding that I love your videos - I find a lot of value in what you have to share! Thank you!
Those plants look very Healthy and vibrant I liked watching the thunder storm as well
In the beginning of the video you can hear the tranquility, it's so soothing a sound you never hear living in the city.
Thanks for sharing 🐦
Got your book last year. Got my 2nd generation slips growing now!! Watched your electrical theory video, you are right. We got bad storms last night too... major growth this morning!👍🏼
Thank you so much for your tops and knowledge Danny and Wanda. Hope Max is doing great. Seeing the birthing yesterday was a highlight of my day. Have a blessed day .
He's doing great.
Hi Danny , Mark and I watched your videos and we planted our own sweet potato slips this yr. We have them inside in a plastic tub. We need to get on and order the manuals as well. We are praying they come up. We live in Cental IL. rural and we live on 2 acres . Last yr. we paid 3.89 each for our sweet potato slips. Lord only knows what they will be this yr? You and Wanda teaching us all is a blessing ! Thank you!! God Bless you both and your land and animals. 🙏❤😄
Your veggies look so yummy 😋😋 and healthy. I'll be planting all mine this week. Have a blessed day 😘🤗🥰
Wow that’s amazing how they grew so fast! I can’t wait to get mine in the ground. I will be ordering your carrot manual. I have really found your other 2 manuals very helpful. Thank you. 😊🙏
Good video. I agree about the electrical storms and plant growth. Stay safe up there and keep on growing 🤠
I have never planted Sweet Potato's and just ordered my 1st slips at local Farm Store . WOW if I would of watched this 1st I would of known what to do. They asked me red, orange or white I said just the sweetest and they said orange . I wish I would of been able to order some of each variety , oh welI I am trying . LOL Years ago my sister made a casserole with all kinds of stuff on it and I didn't like them . A friend of ours gave us a Sweet Potato Souffle and it was really delicious I liked it but our daughter didn't and just eats Sweet Potatoes with butter on them. So since the food issues I decided to plant them and to watch and hear the benefits that Mr Danny spoke of amazes me. I hope you can HOT WATER BATH CAN them if mine grows . LOL OH and I LOVE the FORK STICK Mr Danny needs to market & sell them !!!!! It is very hard on someone with a bad back & bad knees so I have to sit on my behind and scoot , my husband calls me his ""SCOOTER PIE "" LOL LOL
Good morning brother!
Good morning brother
I was laying my sweet potatoes right on top of the soil in a tray and got good results now I will bury the whole potato your method seems to work better thanks for sharing
Danny how about making a video for newbies explaining all the tractor implements and what they do. Alot of newbies have no clue.
Keep up the great work. Love u and Miss Wanda
Thank y'all! I'm going back to watch your tater videos right now to see if I'm too late to start some. I'm also ordering your manuals!! Truly appreciate the time you & Wanda take to educate us in SOOOO many ways! Love from WNC zone 7B 🌞
You have time. Just make sure you keep them 70 degrees or above.
Hi neighbor! I’m south oh you just across the state line.🍠🥔🍠 🥔 yes you definitely have time to plant regular tators and sweet potatoes.
Morning Y’all, looks fantastic, I’ll be ordering my manuals TODAY ! Thanks for sharing!!!
Just got my Electric horticulture book, can’t wait to put some methods to use
Love my Sweet Potato manual! Highly recommend it, even has a few recipes.❤️🙏🏻
Imagine if they made a sound as the grew. For these little guys, they'd be screeming!
Enjoyed this video. Oh how I love my Hoss tools seed starter. It has worked wonders for me. Thanks Danny and Wanda for sharing with us
🌞 Good morning Danny and Wanda thank you for sharing.
Great stick tip! Ty how lovely for you both growing your baby food source! Blessings! ☮️💞✝️🕊🗽
I never heard about the impact of an electrical storm on plants like that. Looks like I have some homework to do. As for up-potting seed starts - or even just a good way to ensure a “clean” removal from seed trays - two things to remember that have worked for us here; first, pack you seed-starter mix in so that it’s not too loose but not so much that it’s too dense for seeds to germinate. Second, don’t try to remove them when the starter mix is too damp. Let them dry a bit. When you push them out from the tray you’ll find they don’t break apart like they would if the soil was loose and damp. Thank you for all you do.
Good morning from SE NC!! Have a blessed day in the garden!!!
Good morning brother Danny and Wanda and everyone, my potatoes and cabbage is doing great putting my Hyde tunnel up this weekend hopefully
Man, I bought a bunch of cell trays that I've had to rip the bottom just to poke them out without yanking on the plant. I do like HOSS very much. Glad you weathered the storm. It's been pretty vicious in Texas too.
Good morning deepsouth homestead thanks for all you do
We have snow here in central Indiana this morning Mother Nature is really upset with the Earths polluters, and now we all have to pay the price of her fury.
It's funny because my husband always said the same thing about plants after a storm and I told him he was crazy! Guess I owe him an apology!
Needed that sweet potato knowledge this morning! Thank you! Wado!
We got our trio of manuals in March and know we will have success with our garden because of your manuals Mr. Danny. Thank you for the great content. Take care.
Like the idea of manuals.
thank you
Oh my goodness! Your video was right on time with that electric storm. I’m headed over to your store to get me some books. Thank you and may God bless you two.
I have a sweet potatoes book and peas I'm just waiting on my carrots book I do believe I ordered it but it hadn't been released yet.
That series looks great Danny
Good morning
Thank you Danny and Wanda , I love watching your videos. God Bless you
Mr. Danny says: “y’all be smart and cover your potatoes with soil”……Me: covering my face in shame. 🙈 As soon as I get done with my breakfast, I’m covering my sweet potatoes. 🥴 They have roots galore, below the soil…but nothing happening above - and it’s been 3 weeks. Thanks for this unexpected note this morning - that will hopefully get me on the right track! 😊
Have a blessed day Danny and Wanda 🧡✝️🦋🌷
God’s fireworks show
I’m in zone 9B and thanks to Deep South bc I learned how to grow sweet potatoes. I have the most difficult time “curing” them if the weather is humid.
Ty for sharing your experience with growing you own food and homesteading. These new tornadoes in the storms are new for some of us. This weather and wind has been crazy!! 🙏 😷🥔🌱May God protect his people Mr. Danny and Mrs. Wanda and their family. Lord we need your healing in Jesus Christ name is Lord Christ! I start my slip’s indoor then transplant them out like Mr. Danny. Maybe the plant’s are responding to that CME? Those are some giant slip’s! Got our first green stalk using your code ima start some slips in it! That’s a great idea, bc I wldnt have thought about that! I love that the books are ion paper, and signed going to get me some thx. Support small business Id pay to download those videos keep a paper copy and a digital copy!
Growing up my mother would tie up her plants with old nylons to attract electricity to her tomatoes.
My grandmother tied things up in her garden with nylons.. I had forgotten that. I wonder if she used nylons to attract electricity?
I planted some sweet potato slips last year. I followed your previous tips to get the slips from the potatoes with a lot of success. The deer around my home really enjoyed the leaves, so I didn’t get a harvest. I’m going to plant them closer to the house this year to try to keep the deer off of them.
Venison goes good with sweet potatoes.
The cem trails today are off the chain. I live in State Line Mississippi.
Yep we saw them this morning.
Loved this video! I'm trying my best to get sweet potatoes and white potatoes growing in my little garden. Thank you for this information!
Eeww y'all got a storm, didn't ya? Thank you for this. 💕 🤗
That lightning storm really did do something. I made sure to really look before and after because that video you made and it looked like they’d doubled before the rain even hit em. I took the little shoots off the potato put in some sand and the roots shoot down fast.
Looks like I won't be able to get more seeds in ground till temps come up the 10th. Going to put a couple more lettuce rows in this week. I grow lettuce as soon as grass starts growing. Plant 2 rows every 2 weeks. Last 2 plantings in May are summer lettuce. Just a 4x12 hugelkulture raised bed. My summer lettuce goes on north side of the mound for more shade. I plant the cold weather lettuce at top and work my way down south face. I have to go put a dock in today. At least the water is warmer than the ground and air. Warmer water still on bottom. The lakes still haven't turned. Meaning warmer water on top.
Thought I was sooo far behind, just starting to get slips from my sweet potatoes. Not as far behind as I thought, which is a relief. Thanks for the update.
No your fine.
We live in the far far Northern part of California! Triple digit temps! I just learned about electro culture and I am so excited to try that out! We get a ton of rain in the winter time and almost no rain in the summer. I took some cuttings from a sweet potato vine and a red potato vine and stuck them in water. I now have roots and I’m thinking I can put these Back into my raised garden bed. Is that right? I should grow okra. Nobody talks about okra out here. We sure did eat a lot of it in Texas!😊
I have all three of those and oh boy have they come in handy.
I started my slips by putting a sweet potato in a half-filled one gallon fish bowl, then planted the slips in 16oz water bottles full of potting soil, and finally planted in grow bags. The grow bags air prune the roots and the plants are really lush. You can see my slips in my profile photo.
I loved the storm footage at the beginning. I woke up this morning and it was spitting snow here in southeastern Ky! It’s crazy what’s going on
I heard that we can eat sweet potatoes leaves. In hard times it would be nice to know what leaves we could eat, like squash, carrots, peas, different trees,, flowers. Can you help us with that.? We are learning about edible weeds. There is a grocery store out there that we don't know about that could spare our families someday. Thank you Danny & sweet Wanda 💞
You can cook the leaves like green's. The stems can be stir fried.
“Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it. Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.”
Psalm 65:9-10 KJV 🙌🏼
Agree on the growth after the s term, my garden jumped up!
Thank you for this info! As a new Gardner Info is at a premium right now!!!
Their looking beautiful.
Morning! I received a JADAM ultra low cost organic gardening book yesterday. Wow. Simple Easy Scientific Effective.
I think your next book should be, for each category of fruit and vegetables need for nutrients when planting and when to fertilize.Pat from Oregon coast
Morning
Good morning
Those sweet potatoes vines looks so good
Good morning Danny and Wanda watching your video I've been sick the last couple days so I haven't been able to watch your videos my headaches were so severe I had to stay in darkness and keep my eyes closed I'm better today you talk about white sweet potatoes I've only seen red at the stores would the be ok to plant when ever then snow will ever go I grow butter nut squash acorn squash zucchini squash butter cup squash I'm always interested in growing something new I grow pumpkin my biggest was 25lbs one year I grew over 30 in pig manure trade it elsewhere and didn't get anything I am going to try the sweet potatoes I grow russet and chieftain potatoes out of 5 bins I got about 60 pounds I think I did pretty good your videos are inspiring thank you please stay safe juring those storms and God bless
Yes you can use the ones from the store as long as they're organic. The other's have been sprayed.
Morning y’all
Great video ♥️
Im glad you made it through the storm unscathed. That lightening was incredible. Every flash I saw was saying “Nitrogen, Nitrogen, Nitrogen!!!”. Last year I tried the dirt method but only got one leg on each sweet potato sticking up with no leaves on it, just like if I had left it in the closet. Do daylight hours have anything to do with it? They were in my seed starting room but I think I quit turning the grow lights on at the end of April because everything else was transplanted out and the room is bright but it’s indirect light. We don’t plant sweet potatoes until the first week of June.
Opening shot is beautiful!
Wanda great video quality . Thanks Danny
We got nearly 3” of rain from the low pressure system from 3/29-3/31. We don’t see rain like that except when hurricanes strike LA or AL or E TX
Have ALL the manuals. Great investment!
I have your guide and trying sweet potatoes first this year. Just not yet still snowed her in Indiana last night.
those nights are the ones where you just sit on the porch and watch and listen to God's handieork
Ive never had luck transplanting corn. Your starts look great!
Corn is not meant to be transplanted.
Good morning friends. God bless.
Looking good guys, how is the new calf & Momma doing? Have a blessed day.
They're fine been turned out to pasture.
@@DeepSouthHomestead excellent glad they doing well.
Everyone pay attention. Watch these folks and grow some of your own food. Who knows what may not be at the grocery store next week. I've never seen anything like what we are living through now.
I got my sweet potato slips going almost ready to plant. I still have some Danny corn in the fridge I bought from you guys.. think they going in the dirt this year
Thunderstorms are God’s miracle grow
do you have a video on growing slips from the potatoes?
Thanks for the video - Did you poke holes in the bottom of the tray or just water them lightly? Thanks again.
Danny and Wanda, I have noticed that many channels that used to keep rabbits no longer do even though many talk about the benefits of rabbit poop for the garden. Is there a reason why everyone is no longer keeping them?
