I grew yacon last year in large containers. There was one rhizome that I left in a seedling pot and then neglected. To my surprise it still produced perfect, albeit miniature, yacons that were just as delicious as the ones that had more sunlight and more space to grow bigger. My yacons were light tan brown colour with pale straw yellow flesh that tasted like sugar cane and were crunchy and watery like radishes and apples. Will definitely keep growing them because they're so easy to care for and so tasty.
Does eating Yacon make you fart like eating Sunchokes?
I left mine to cure for a few weeks which looked just like yours. It was absolutely gorgeous! 😋😋😋
TY!! I just found yacon in a gallon pot at a favorite natural food grocery at the beach (Lincoln city, OR) and am excited to have it again!! There are several shoots, so I'm going to see if I can divide it 😃
I'm thinking of grow bags 💚 🌼 💛
Try jicamas same they are a vine yes the vines and seed are toxic but you do eat the tubers good as yacon lots of fiber and water crispy treat
yes but jicamas arent nearly as sweet as yacons, I do love jicamas for the crunch. But its not the same
Someone is selling it in my area and I never heard of it. But after watching your video I am buying that plant.
ME GROW IN AUSTRALIA SO EXITED FIRST CROP SO BEAUTIFUL MMMM FOOD
I can't tell if you are eating the peel. Is it better to eat or remove the peel? I agree raw is best...
If you reduce that flesh into a syrup, it is a 1 on the glycemic scale as a sweetener.
I did this with mine, because they were ripening too quickly. I made the mistake or rinsing them before stocking them. The syrup was was amazing! I juiced them in an extractor and reduced the juice into a syrup. The pulp was aslo delicious. The syrup lasted from months in the fridge.
Great video. Thank you. New veggies to grow, I'm excited. Anyone have any thoughts on growing these in a Ruth Stout bed. I started a new raised bed with this method for potatoes and was thinking of adding this to my selection. Take care everyone.

Hands down the best way to cook them is to roast them, it concentrates the sugars even more, almost like nutty, caramel.
Thank you! I have one that I hope to turn into multiple perennials once it’s time to harvest. 🙏
After you grow it once, there should be plenty of crowns to divide for the following year. Happy gardening! :D
@@wendiland Thank you, and to you. Is it best to divide it post harvest pre winter or to wait to spring? Should it be kept inside during winter or is a simple greenhouse enough?
@@wendilanddo you sale yacon plants?
Thanks for growing AND eating the Yacon. I just received 2 plants and getting their bed ready to plant tonight. I can't wait to eat and propagate. Good idea not to cook but to eat as a snack or maybe in a salad.
who id you order from?
Where can we avail seedling of yacon?
The bark must be completely removed before eating. Can be made into food in many ways, can be made into syrup, boiled soup, eaten raw, dried, brewed as a tea, freshly squeezed, drinking is delicious.
Anything wrong with eating the bark? Thanks for sharing!
you sold me . Eating it with the peel is a good idea .How long do the tubers keep in a refrigerator? ....the purple majesty is doing good
Just bought one hopefully it will grow
Now, I know how to propagate YACON! I tried it but it just died. I'll do my best to. I'll do how you did it. Thanks a lot.
Nice tubers.. and pretty ladies. my day is complete.

Hi Wendi, so i have been noticing there are white and yellow yacon. Which variety is the yellow one do you know? I dont know how different they taste but i would love to grow both
There are more te varieties in their home in the Andes, inc purple and red!
Where did you get yours from
Can Yacon grow out door when weather cool ?
thanks ?
How do they fare in tropical lowlands? Am looking for some to plant. Also, since it's always hot and humid most of the year, how do I cure them? In the fridge?
Well done much love
really enjoyed watching this, thanks!

Where did you buy your yacons?
It have any other English name?
Online delivery in kerala available please replay
Very good
Good morning my friend 👍
It sounds like you are implying that cooking destroys the prebiotic fiber in yacon - it does not.
It would destroy the enzyme content but yes, not the fiber.
Is it true that yacon can grow on wood cutting instead of crown cutting?
Malubhang sakit ko dati ate... Dati mhirap akong huminga dahil sa plima ng ubo ko my tunog na hirap pa pgtulog Kasi para Kang pusa nkatunog paghilik.... Pgkatapos c mama nag negosyo ng yacon ako rin kumakain ginawa ko cyang syrup . Himagas pati balat kinakain ko Kasi masarap ... Dumating ang kalahating buwan pumunta ako sa Cr para magdumi . Nagulat ako bakit sipon at plima ng ubo na dumi ko... pagtapos sumusuka ako ng kulay dilaw na mapait parang panyawan ... Yong balat ko nag change skin Mula sa Mukha Hanggang paa... Sa wakas na tanggal sakit ko non. 11y0 Po ako non... Ngayon 28 na ako... Matagal na ako hindi nakakain ulit ng yacon gusto ko kumain ako ulit ng yacon Kaso saan ko hahanapin yan ... C mama lang Kasi naka bili non dati....
Lovely daughter, morning. ..yacon can grow In pakistan. ..which type of weather and soil required for yacon. ..tell me plz
BangtanBangtan BangBangtan check out my previous episode on harvesting Yacons I linked below this video. It talks about growing these. In general I grow most things in rich compost and worm castings. Growing them in more sun this time in hopes they will produce more tubers. Happy Gardening!
I always get a worm down the stem of my YACON plants end up having to dig it out and redo my plants before the tubers ever get the size I like them. I did get a good harvest the first year I grew them. Wendi have you ever had that problem?
It was my first time growing yacon and didn't have that issue luckily. What kind of worms are they? I think worms usually only eat what's decaying? Anyone have some advise?
where i can get planting materials of yakun
Hi can you please tell me what the soil you grow yacon plant please thank you
thank you for sharing.
I have try it but it's not sweet at all ...
Thank you for your video can I ask what sort of seed mix or firtluser you use to start your Yacon iv got some Yacon crowns that I wanted to start and then plant in 60lt containers but wasn’t sure what to use to start them off in
Thanks I want to grow these !!
I just check your website and the seeds still available. Will be able to start growing or will it be too late? Im located here bay area cali.
Hi Julian, I would get any of these plants growing ASAP. Luckily Bay area frost date is pretty late in the year. Best to grow plants in full sun for maximum tuber production. Sunchokes take 4-5 months to grow, and yacons take 5-6 months to grow. Sunchoke is more sensitive to the cold than Yacon. They will die back way before yacon. For zone 10 (So Cal) My sunchokes start dying back around November, and yacons start dying back in December. It doesn’t get cold enough that I have to rush digging them up since we do not get a frost usually. Hope this helps!
Yucon is a territory in Canada. What you're holding is a yAcon!
When do u harvest?
When plants die back. See the video on “harvesting sunchoke vs yacon” for more info.
I feel like I eat it too😋
Can you ship this plant to canada
Where to buy it s roots?
Hi, this will be available soon. Please add your email here so you’ll be notified when it’s available: wendiland.com/collections/most-popular/products/yacon Thank you!
Where can I buy these to plant in my garden? Also do you know where I can buy some ube to plant.
michelle belle I would check online sellers. I have seen nursery in Nor Cal carry them. White yam is available at Asian markets you can try to sprout. Ube...be sure to catch my upcoming episode! Hope I’ll be able to offer any extra tubers I have in the future.

How find its plant
Do you sell Yacon root?
Es esto lo mismo al boniato?? Is it the same as sweet potato which is harvested in Spain, Cuba and other countries of America ?
Rafael Garcia yacon is very different than sweet potatoes. The plant looks nothing like sweet potato, tubers taste different too. :)
Is in the sunflower family (Asteacea) like sunchokes, and will likely have small happy yellow flowers 🌼 💛
The leaves can also be eaten small or used as wraps 🍃

Do you still collect Marimo?
Yes I do. They are living happily with my fishes. Will make an update video about them in the aquarium. :)
@@wendiland Nice. I see that you're sold out of the Marimo on your website. Will you be selling the big ones again soon?
Hi, Wendi, Would you share one crown for, thanks.
I will have them soon on Wendiland.com I need to harvest them. :D
@@wendiland would you let me know when you ready, I will pay for the crown and shipping
Thanks so much!
Hey DON'T you peel it?
Some do peel it, but I don’t since the skin is full of nutrients. Skin of yacon, like some fruits, it’s not as palatable to some people.
@@wendiland Wow didn't know about that... Thanks.
I'm keen to grow them, despite what they look like.
Can sell me some crown?
I want to buy some yacon please sell
The plant is available here: wendiland.com/products/yacon Happy Gardening!
@@wendiland Thank you so much!
