THANKS FOR WATCHING!
Is it just me or has anyone else told you that you look a little like Eddie Rabbitt? Thanks so much for all the information you put out here for us rookies and even for the seasoned veterans on here who’ve been gardening forever. I haven’t and in the last couple years I’ve been really struggling to learn it. I’m always grateful when somebody is just no-nonsense and gives good advice on how to make it work. Blessings to you and yours!☺️🦋🎼
I loved Eddie Rabbit growing up. ❤❤
Good morning all, Wishing all a good week. Thanks Danny and Wanda
For those with long growing seasons once your sweet potatoes start Vining out good bury the vine every couple of feet at the nodes. They will root again and each spot you buried will basically be another slip that will make more sweet potatoes.
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing.
Good morning brother!
Good morning brother we got some much needed rain here nothing bad.
@@DeepSouthHomestead Nice!
I've got a copy of your sweet potato manual, it's well worth the money! Danny, I know that "experimenting" must get tiresome, but I'll tell you what...your experiments save me a LOT of time, giving me a chance to see what works, and how and why!
We love our Georgia Jet's good output and sweet.
Thank you for showing practical things we can do this year. Giving knowledge is more valuable than selling us the slips.
Your plants are gorgeous. There is so much joy in watching things grow. Thanks again for making my Monday better.
You are so welcome
Good Morning Mr Danny & Wanda well it's Saturday morning here in Arkansas Van Buren, 20th . Watchin y'all plant sweet potatoes; so in the deep south what town city do y'all live if I may ask that 😮😂❤love ur videos keepem comeing hey send me a manual if ya can if not I understand an thank y'all ?GODBLESS you both the best video ever!!😅😊❤ Praying for you both daily.
In Wiggins Mississippi
I tried every way of growing sweet potato slips. This is no fail y'all. Danny my granddaughter always says did the sweet potato man show you how to do that
LoL that's funny.
I never knew sweet 🍠 potato 🥔 can be grown like potato. Thank you for sharing this valuable information with us subscribers.
I plant my sweet tater tubers in a container like you do and it works great. I should probably mention once the slips grow, I snap them off and put them in 40+ gallon storage bins with good drainage, grow lights and I vermicompost-all inside my 2 bedroom apartment
I’m glad its getting time to grow some stuff I love to watch y’all
I'm learning so much from your videos. I grew up in a farm, but there's always more to learn, to plant, fertilize, weed and harvest.
After watching your method of growing slips in soil last year, I planted in cat litter boxes. I got 10 times or more the number of slips that I'd ever gotten by the water method.
Great tip, thank you so much. I can get litter boxes at Dollar Tree.
I did also and lots of potatoes
Wow! Thanks for sharing Randy, I'm encouraged!
Can you eat the leaves of a sweet potato
@@stephaniegerrins5137 Both the leaves and stems are edible and are used in Asian dishes. The stems have a taste very similar to asparagus.
I start my sweet potatos inside for slips, pot up the slips on the back deck in a sheltered location, and then I plant them in the ground AFTER summer starts. The sweet potatos just hate the cool springs here, and so they live in pots so that I can protect them from the wind and take them in if we have a cool snap. While we have longer than a 90 day growing season we do not have much more over 90 days of WARM weather. Beauregard and Georgia Jet have done well for us
I live in Northwest Minnesota, zone 3 and just started my sweet potatoes. I typically plant out the first weekend of June and harvest in September after the first killing frost.
Just a heads up. They been hammering us with a ton of snow up here and you are going to be hit with flooding when the snow melts.
Tomorrow is the First of April and I believe they are going to cause a rapid melt in April, causing flash flooding in the southern plains.
Farmers are going to be locked out of their crop fields by the flooding.
I ordered a 100 slips of Carolina Ruby for May 1st this year, but after watching your video I might try this next year with what I hopefully grow this year.
I am growing sweet potato slips, thank you for sharing what you know
I have 2 store bought sweet potatos and have them in glass jars on porch in water, they are doing great I have 8 blue mineral tubs just waiting to start growing 😁 I buy more slips from Greg Hoss last year was my first year growing I did 1 45gal tub and got a good bit so now going from 1 to 8 tubs 😊 it’s just me so that gives me plenty to can up and eat fresh.
Greetings from Arizona 9B
Tomato looking great Wanda!
I can’t wait to get my Mr Al’s in some dirt. Thank You Mr D for sharing some to plant.
And last year i used a 2 inch deep pan ,and learned from you now have a 30X30 old wash tub and all in 6 inches deep
I need some of the Mr Al sweet potatoes to make slips.
I have you sweet potato manual. It works.
I Bought 400 pounds of Seed potatoes for this year and ordered a couple hundred onion sets and now i'm still trying to find Raw peanut seeds. My First 20x60 greenhouse is almost setup inside to grow tomatoes and strawberries and if the mud would cooperate i'll get the second greenhouse built and set up for a different variety of Mater, the Rare "Jersey" sauce making tomato. I Think we are getting ALL of the rain we are going to get for the year now here in the foothills of Virginia and i have both of my 2500 gallon water storage tanks full right now and i'm setting up the greenhouses with outside gutters to catch the rain and keep the tanks full as i use them so i don't tap into my precious well water. I think just like you are preaching about preparing now if you haven't already is good wisdom and the Lord will bless those that work hard and steady.
Keep up the good work.
Been growing them here in Queensland Australia, next time I will plant them in a bigger location. They took over and grew like mad. Still growing probably weeks before harvest. The Dutch Cream potatoes also need more room. Going to need a bigger garden. Tomatoes also grow well. Lettuce too. Need to find more that survives our beginner attempts. Storing them is another issue too.
Have you tried Swiss chard? It takes a bit for them to germinate but they will give you greens even though 115f heat and produce till first hard freeze. Have a mild spinach taste, I love it In omelets, soups, casseroles and fresh salads also if grown around cabbage the moths don’t like them neither do spider mites and are very resilient.
Danny, been growing your way for the last 2 years, with much success 😉👍Thank you!
SLIPS ARE ALREADY GROWIN' HERE IN 7a zone!
It’s cool to see how the methods different folks use to grow slips. Thanks for sharing !
Thanks Danny. I'm on the 34th paralell and am already seeing changes in my growing cycles. Much Love ❤
After I bought your manual on sweet potatoes. I got plenty of slips. Animals got them. This year I have my garden fenced in. Praying I get plenty this year.
Thanks for all you do.
That is awesome!
We're getting ice dumped on us until noon tomorrow here in Missouri. I can't wait for the warmer weather to come back. 😂
I started one seed tray with tiny whit sweet potatoes last year and harvested 150 pounds. Put the in the tray in March, planted June 1, cut the thick roots out like a pan of brownies, harvested in October. Had some BIG ones. A good amount of vole damage.
Treat with milky spore!
Thank you, Mr Danny. I think I’m in 7b. I’m going to check again to make sure. I’m praying this will be the year for potatoes at my house. We have tried for the past 2 years and haven’t had much success, but we are not giving up.
My manual may help f you don't already have it.
I was able to grow them, and I'm in Ontario
@@DeepSouthHomestead I don’t have it. I need it and the one in carrots, although my carrots are doing quite well. Thank you
I’m in 7a, Nancy. Do you start your slips now and plant them in May or June? Thank you in advance.
@@paulamaguire7547 I think I’m in 7a and I’m starting my slips now and will plant them end of April or early May.
Arkansas zone 7 and we have an ice storm this week and possibly another in the near future. Allowing my sweet potato slips grow inside for now. You keep me on track since you are just a bit ahead of me. Thank you
Fabulous video and info. The warm water trick makes so much sense. Thankyou 🙏
I am planting beareguard potatoes to grow my slips. I have learned from you the master of gardening. Thanks you so much for the education. You & Wanda are truly wonderful people. God bless both of you.
Thanks, Danny.
Good morning Mr Danny. Excited to start my sweet potatoes here in the next few weeks. NE Ohio. Will try your technique because mine didn't work last year and had to buy starter sweet potato plants. Thanks for all the knowledge you're passing on to us. 🕊💜🙏🏽💪🏽🌱🌱🌱
Good morning
NE Ohio here too.😀
Thank you brother Danny for sharing your wisdom I believe you inspire all of us IMHO. I live in zone 8 or 8A here in DFW Texas. We are doubling our garden
I purchase your books
We finally were able to get some property early fall of 22 (in KY)-didn't get much in the ground besides some garlic and some saffron crocuses- which somehow survived the -1 temps we had for a few days! Excited to actually put that manual I've been hanging onto for a couple years now to use. Thanks Mister Danny and Miss Wanda
We live in Sweden and now when I need to start to grow the slips it's too cold to grow them in the tunnel so I have to grow them in the house. Last day of chance of frost is April the 21 here. Interesting to see how you do it anyhow. :) Thank you!
Are you serious the 21 of april up there? I’m in Portugal and my last esperienced frost was beginning of may, almost the same as when l still lived in Belgium, l think it’s the 25th of may up there.. just had a slight frost this morning again.. anywho, have a great growing season 🪴🌳
Good information on sweet potatoes. Thank you Danny and Wanda.
Good morning to y'all, this is so interesting. Prayers please in Houston for diagnostic tests. Feeling mighty low. Thank you, much love 💕
Good morning!
I found storing sweet potatoes with onions in low light location gets them to sprout more quickly. Roots come later when sideways in soil and sun.
I'm going to try to get slips done next week.
I planted my potatoes the other day for slips in my green house. Thanks and God bless you and your family ✝️💖
Thank you Danny and Wanda for sharing! Being in a new state this year, different soil etc your knowledge will help us to avoid as many mistakes as possible! THANK YOU!
God Bless and keep y'all!
Best of luck!
Yeeeeaahhhh🎉🎉🎉 Year of solutions! All aboard and everyone enjoy the work they've put in and want to 🎉🎉
Im down for that!
This video is just in time! I'm going to try and grow my own sweet potato slips this year. Thanks for sharing 👍
Got to love sweetie potatoes. I can't wait to plant this year I'm in zone 5 .
I bought your manual a few years ago. Great book.
Thank you Danny and Wanda for the wealth of information. Blessings and much love to you and your family
🙏❤🏋🏼😊💞👨👩👦👦👨👩👧🌿🌻🙏
We have slips that still grow where we had sweet potatoes growing years ago. I also have a small raised bed, where I have sweet potatoes "planted" for slips. We grow them year around. We harvest a few pounds every month.
How do you grow them all year long? I have a small greenhouse but I always thought it got too cold even in there during winter. I thought about taking those little tiny ones that I grew this year that we didn’t eat, i’m going ahead and putting them in a big pot like he’s doing and covering it with some soil and then hay on top and just leaving it in my greenhouse. I’ve never done it before and it took me three years of trying just to get a very small crop of sweet potatoes this year. But I was extremely proud of those! TIA for any tips you’ve got! I’m in central west Texas.
@@evelyny7037 We are located in South Florida. We seldom get a hard frost, and the few nights a year we do, I harvest all of the greens for the rabbits right before the frost. The potatoes underground aren't affected, and keep producing greens. I have better harvests in the warmer months. Right now I have 4 or 5 large pots growing that should be harvested late December/early January. I have a shallow raised bed, that I grow my "slips" in. When I don't need slips for planting, I cut them for the rabbits, chickens and turkeys. I replant as soon as I harvest.
Well, our climate is a little bit tougher as far as we do get some severe frost and they can be extended. Last year I just started with my slips in about January and then moved them outside of course in the spring. Just really hoping for a way to just stick some either in the ground and then cover them with soil and hay and just kinda let them sit there and get started because I think I might protect them like that. Anyway, thx for the advice! ☺️☀️
Good timing! I was about to look up videos on growing swt potatoe slips.
I had some sitting on the counter in my pantry and they have put out slips! Sweet potatoes are such a wonderful blessing❤
Thank you for another great video. Blessings from river swamp
Good morning blessings ❤.
Thank you Danny and Wanda. Thank you for the video. Have a blessed day. May God bless your gardens this year. 😃🙏❤️
Good to know on temps. It's June before we get 70 degrees!
In central FLorida the last average frost date is Feb 14th.
Thank you Danny!
You are such a nice sweet man and a good teacher. thanks for sharing your wisdom !
I appreciate that!
thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You voice narrated in my head. I bought and planted onions and garlics. Ft Worth area.
Hi Danny & Wanda. We have your manual and it's a wealth of knowledge. Our problem is every time we plant in the ground the fire ants kill everything. We use the warm method to speed up the warming of the soil. So for now we are growing all potatoes and sweet potatoes in 30 gallon pots on our grow table. God bless, Mike
Hey there Danny and Wanda. We recently moved to NC from Ohio and have already been growing my slips inside they are beautiful. Not sure when to put them outside here. We're in zone 8 a. I don't have a high tunnel though that is my goal. I wanted to say I do love y'all channel and have learned so much. Thank y'all for solutions rather then scarring everyone
I don't watch TV because of that mess
Keep up the good work
Love yall
Wait till all danger of frost is past before planting.
I have the white sweet potatoes growing in containers right now. Some should be ready to harvest later in February. They did not like the artic blast in December but bounced back. I love growing them. It’s really hard down here in Zone 10a in SW Florida with our sub tropical monsoon summers and winter droughts, but sweet potatoes flourish. Not a lot of pest problems either. I think I first learned about the white ones from your channel. Thank you 💙
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge of gardening. I live in Missouri zone 6 so I take your knowledge and try my best to work it to my zone.
Thank you Danny, loved this video!
So glad you told how long it takes for the slips to come up and when to plant,our last freeze date is usually May 15 ,southern Ohio near the Ohio river,thank you so much
Good morning, I left a sweet potatoe on the counter and it started making small slips and I will plant it.
Thk. You Mr. Danny, this was awesome., simple, and timely.I appreciate all that you and Mrs. Wanda do for all of us, you guys are such a blessing, to so many!!!
Thank you Danny I am looking forward to ordering your ever growing onions and since I am in zone 8b I am starting my sweet potato slips thank you for your time and effort in showing us how to get growing
5 min into watching my first video by you, and….. ordered your 3 books. Thanks for the content
Awesome! Thank you!
I have that growing manual and I'm looking first to starting my slips! Thanks for the warm water tip.
Thank you again, I very much appreciate these type videos, so much information
When something is illeagle to sell but legal to have you can always GIFT it and some can GIFT you back ;)
Beautiful sweet potatoes they'll make great slips.
see
slips of blessings
I am 8a so I guess I can do this now too. Thanks Danny.
Your books are a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for them and everything else you both do.
I water all my houseplants with warm water. They are gorgeous
It's that time again isn't it?!! I'm so excited!! I'm going to get my seeds and s. Pot. slips started this weekend.
Frankie
PS) I sure wish you'd consider writing a manual on growing onions and garlic.
Oh wow. You just brought me memories of my dad planting sweet potatoes. Back home we call them Camotes. Definitely will try this method. I’ve never grown them so I’m excited to try. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the advise. Considering to plant sweet potatoes this year, as I am expanding my growing space in my urban neighborhood.
Good morning Mr Danny and Ms Wanda. Thanks for the reminder to start our slips. We'll be starting ours this week.
Good morning!
Wow, I didn't know how to do this and I have learned from watching you. Now when I go back home I will try this method. Thank you!
At least things won't get boring in this new year of solutions ☺
Great information. Using your sweet potato manual, I grew my own eat & slip supply. Plenty of extra shared. Ps. I'm in zone 4.
That is awesome!
wow! Love the rutabaga greens and root! so nice, very nice, best root for meat pies or stew!
Truth. We had an ice storm in St. Louis last night into this morning, a light snow, and it will be almost 50 by Thursday. Working on the garden plans this year will be challenging, but ok. We have to figure it out. We're growing for our families and seniors we've adopted to help feed.
I'm giving sweet potatoes a try this year. I have the sweet potatoes in the house now because I live in the pacific northwest to get some slips started, but I am going to be growing them in the middle of my 5ft wide raised bed when it gets warm enough. Blessings
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. It's very much appreciated.🤗
We're in 8b here in NW Oregon. We'll have to use covers over the soil to heat it up for planting in ground or large containers.
Some good info. I grew my slip all year long inside the house. Zone 4a
Thank you so much.
I learned a lot.
And will make application
Thanks so much..I always learn from you folks and absolutely love your authenticity...blessings brother
I am gonna try to grow my slips again this way… one year was great but others not so much…… thx for the details
