7:13 When And How To Harvest Sweet Potatoes
My wife bakes sweet potatoes with pecans or walnuts, brown sugar, Cinnamon and marshmallows on top. Heaven !
Dang--had one other night w only garlic butter and it was excellent. ;-)
I harvested several dozen kilos of O'Henry sweet potatoes last year, ate a portion of them, then let the rest sit for months. They all grew slips . . . which I've replanted into the garden this year. Also found out which potatoes I missed harvesting last year, but they've also sprouted.
Awesome!
I still have sweet potatoes I grew last year. Still perfect. I eat them once or twice a week
I dug all my potatoes out yesterday from a raised bed feed trough and planted sweet potatoes in there and I already have a row that were planted about 6 weeks ago. I love sweet potatoes! They have to be my favorite thing to grow! All my slips were grown from two sweet potatoes and I have a bunch still growing or in water waiting to be planted. 😊
Sounds great!
Starches in the sweet potato convert to sugars. Sugars and starches are both carbohydrates (aka, carbs).
My dad dug his sweet potatoes in the fall and wrapped them in news paper and stored them in aeriated crates . They lasted all winter in our garage .
Those are tobacco flowers!!! My Grand Daddy had them in his garden!! He'd cut them for my Grand Mama ❤
Sweet potatoes are good any way you prepare them. My son loves them fried but I like them any way you want to fix them, roasted, fried, casserole or pie. They are very good for you too.
I planted sweet potatoes in the ground first time this year and came back and hilled them with Black Cow and Black Velvet mushroom compost since I didn't have dirt to steel from the sides, and it was really cheap at Lowe's. Last year I planted them in straw bales. I checked them at a little over 100 days. Around the top they were still a little small so I thought I'd leave them to 120. Down deep where you plant them before you hill are the potatoes going to get too big. Stands to reason to me that since those roots were in the ground a good 2 or 3 weeks longer than up in the hill, they might. Only my second year ever planting sweet taters. Thanks.
I like them baked too but with butter and seasoned salt 🍠
Wish you would do a video on Root Knot Nematodes. This is the second year I have been fighting to control them.
we grow sweets that started with my wife's grandmothers grandmother. No idea of type, similar to Georgia Jets
I’m so excited over my Georgia Jets. We’re using some of the leaves in salads, they remind me of the texture and taste of spinach and add beautiful colors to the salad. I can hardly wait for the fruits to be ready to harvest. 😊
Sounds great!
OMG that corn looks amazing ! So jealous ! 😂
I got Georgia Jets and Murasakis from Hoss and they are doing great
Thanks for the drip tape recommendation for sweet potatoes.
You bet!
1st real go at S.P.s, last yr just tossed few in the ground way late and grew like crazy until it cooled off a little.
Still bit late maybe but we have long grow season (farther N. Commifornia low-inland, 9a) created slips from several organic store taters. Up to 108F recently, slips suffer a tad *in the pot* but not in the ground so far.
love your show! great info. Happy 4th to everyone!
Same to you!
Hey Hoss. Garden looks great. Planted me a row of Vardaman sweet taters 2 weeks ago. Tomatoes are just now fixin to come on in 7a. Great time of year.
Sounds great!
For newbies, you can also buy a potato in about 4 inches of dirt in a raised bed or container and pull the plant off the potato when it get about 9 inches tall.
I got my Georgia jets from y’all they are doing great I do have them on drip should be ready to harvest in august. Everything I grow is always on drip kind of like having an insurance policy
I need some advice please. I planted store bought purple sweet potatoes, last fall. The vines froze back to the soil when we had a frost in December. (I'm in central Florida). They grew back starting in February and are still growing like crazy. I'm calculating 148 days, but the vines are not declining. Should I harvest or wait until the fall or our first frost? Thanks for your help.
Dig a couple and see how they look. In the future, do a little different. Harvest the slips from the potatoes and plant those and change up your planting time.
@@gardeningwithhoss Thanks. I'll give it a dig.
Good morning. Another great video! I’m in south Texas in zone 8b. Can I still plant sweet corn or field corn? If not, when? Thanks! Robin, Bergheim, TX
You will need to wait till first of August for a fall crop. But ensure to sow the variety that can be harvested before the first hard frost, as they are susceptible to it
I like salt, pepper, butter & dark brown sugar on my sweet potatoes 🍠 😊
Beauregard is the oldest avaliable commercial cultivar like 1975 ish. And it is the best it is resistant to everything has the shortest growing cycle and is the sweetest potato. It is the sweet potato that is basically the sweet potato, everyone knows it.
We grow Georgia Jet every year here in zone 5 👍
I plant georgia jet but I get white worms under the skin of the potaoes. I do not know how to prevent these worms or grubs .
I grow beauregard and o henry in zone 9b
@@vickieboudwin7781 I would suggest rotate planting sites I live on a small city lot and we rotate planting our sweet potatoes every year from one side of our home to the other side and so far no problems 👍
@@pilsplease7561 I have tried Beauregard with great success but I prefer Georgia Jet because we live and garden on a small city lot with not much space and the Beauregards vines out all over the place but had large potatoes the Georgia Jet doesn't seem to vine out near as bad and we get larger potatoes from this variety 👍
@@citylotgardening6171 Thankyou I was planting in the same space because of backyard gardening. I need more space.
The purple Japanese ones (white inside) are my favorite dry sweet variety. They take a few weeks longer though.
Murasaki
@@christianspain3015 Yes! That's the name.
Good to know!
My sweet potatoes will last till mid summer the next year. I always sprout my last years taters for this years plants.
Ours go 16 ... 18 ... 24 months sometimes. We're still eatin' through a bin harvested October. Not last year but the year before that. Comin' up on 20 months.
I bought my Georgia Jets from Hoss and they are all getting going with some 20-20-20 to help them out. I'm curious, what is the best way to preserve some so I could get some slips for the next planting season. Will sweet potatoes stored indoors make it to the spring to generate new slips? I'm in a northern climate, so no chance of leaving some in the ground or overwintering anything.

Can u grow sweet potato from planting the sweet potato? If not why?
Unlike regular potatoes, you can't just plant a whole sweet potato in the ground and expect a crop; it will rot underground. Sweet potatoes are grown from sweet potato slips. Slips are the stems and foliage that sprout from already grown sweet potatoes. You need the roots from the slips to produce the sweet potato.
