I grew up canning hundreds of qts of green beans every year, still do a ton, and Mama Hoss is RIGHT! There's no sense in cutting corners and risking giving botulism to your family! Love yalls show...especially corn sappin!
Congratulations on your 200th episode of the best dad-gum garden show anywhere!! Keep them coming. That old goat is hiding behind big hoss behind the cherry tomatoes.
I start all my sweet potato slips myself because most of the time the ones in my kitchen volunteer sprouts so I just let them do their thing and then pot up the sprouts and let them develop in pots while it is still too cold to put them in the ground. I've been growing the Japanese sweet potato that has the reddish skin and antique white flesh for several years at my former homestead. I love that sweet potato, I think it tastes like roasted chestnuts. Years ago some that I had bought from Asian grocery store to eat had started sprouting so I rooted each sprout individually in small pots and kept up potting them until I finally decided to make a bed with a trellis and grow them not just for the root but also for the greens. I had watched AsianGarden2Table for years, she trellises hers; I decided to try her method and it is the way I continue to grow them and my other regular sweet potatoes such as the Beauregard. Up here at my new homestead in northwest Florida I have an archway over the ramp that goes up to my garden shed and I prepared a bed next to the trellis so my Japanese sweet potato can grow up the side of the trellis. I do that with my other sweet potato varieties and just dot them around my landscape in areas where there is a fence or I make a trellis for them. The greens are wonderful in salads as a hot weather green they are versatile because they can be stir fried or cooked like spinach or added to an omelet, the uses are many. The greens stay much cleaner growing on a trellis and I get two crops; the greens and the root-tuber. Also want to mention difference in sweet potatoes and yams; they aren't even in the same family. Sweet potatoes are in the same family as Morning-Glories, Family: Convolvulaceae, Genus: Ipomoea. Whereas the true Yam is in the Family Dioscoreaceae, Genus dioscorea spp.
Love the soapbox rant. Exactly what needed to be said. I do some rebel canning but only with tested ingredients. Better safe than sick. Bravo mama Hoss
Here in the mountains of New England in the middle of nowhere I’m trying to fix up an old cabin. I’m 22 trying to stay out of big cities where day by day gets harder and dangerous to live. Just started my channel and let’s see how it goes. Stay safe and work hard to make your life better bc politicians will never care about us.
Thank you mama hoss! I appreciate and applaud you for sharing canning and the SAFE way to do it. Everyone should ALWAYS follow the usda guidelines for home canning.
I grow my own slips. Just build a hot box and bury them and when the vines grow out, break them off at the potato and then cut off about a half inch from the bottom of the slip to get rid of any diseases that may be present and pull off the lower leaves so you got a long stem to stick in the ground...
Mama Hoss you are absolutely correct!! I’ve had the same problem on my channel with my green bean canning channel. It’s all about SAFETY!! Great video! Love the sweet potato tips! Thanks so much for sharing. God bless y’all❤️
Last year I bought Georgia Jet slips from the tater man and they were good. Small but dark dark red. Also, kudos mama Hoss. New canners should seek USDA guidelines for canning. Botulism is deadly...Love y'all 🥰
You tell those roulette-canner commentors just because they have not gotten sick yet doesn't mean they are right!! Listen to Mama Hoss and heat those beans to 240!
He is behind Mr. Hoss holding the tomatoes next to the little pumpkin. I got my sweet potatoes in the day before you Mr. Hoss in South Alabama. Same zone as yall. PS. I grew my own slips.
I’m from NE Oklahoma and I discovered Georgia Jets sweet potatoes. I searched the internet for the slips, I was so excited to get them in the mail. We planned them in our black soil. 90 plus days later, OMG !!! The best tasting sweet potatoes I’ve ever had!!!! They grow well here. Thanks so much for the info, we’ve been growing them now since we heard about them with y’all and from Danny at Deep South Homestead. Best ever 😃
I bought a six pack of sweet potatoes at a local store and planted them in mid April . The vines grew 5-6 feet long and I trimmed them a little to keep them from completely taking over and I decided I would put them in water to see what would happen . Every single one of them grew roots and I planted them out last week and they’ve grown fast since then . Now I have about 40 plants . I never knew it was so easy to propagate them . I may even try to take a few cuttings this fall before I dig them and try to keep them over the winter in the house just in case we can’t get them next spring .
I plant all purple sweet potatoe slips from my own sweet taters(prior years potatoes) and plant in 15gal root pouch. I only fertilize prior to planting, then they act like a cover crop. Water only if needed. I harvest them in Oct and get huge potatoes. Zone 7B/6A border.. then I can them after they've cured. Yes use a pressure canner according to USDA recomendations. Blessings.
You two are such a great pair. I love watch Row by Row. I have learned so much from watching your shows. And I have become an okra fan because of you. Thanks for all your expertise.
Thanks for standing your ground about pressure canning your green beans. I'm one of the newbies and appreciated your video showing how to do it. Thanks, Mama Hoss. ❤️
I planted sweet potatoes for the first time this year. I tried the purple all the way through variety. My Irish potatoes are doing great, too. They are doing well in spite of the cool temps and heavy rain.
Picked my 1st batch of HOSS Olympian Cucumbers today. Sliced some up and my kids put them away. Man they were good. Right off the vine, cool and refreshing snack. Ole goat is 3rd shelf behind Greg. Nestled among the cherry tomatoes. Ron VanNess
Loved your rant and you’re so right to teach the “newbies” the right way to can. The old goat is behind the tomatoes on the shelf behind Greg between the egg scale and the gourd. Thanks!!
I eat sweet potatoes in these ways, traditional baked with butter and sugar in the oven, microwaved and cut up in a sweet salad greens with poppyseed dressing, fries and mashed potato style with brown sugar, butter and roasted pecans added.
Old goat in under that cluster of tomatoes. I grow Hawaiian sweet potatoes called: Molokai Sweet Potato is a purple-fleshed& skin type. The place I bought the slips no longer Carrie’s them. I also grow an orange one but I have no idea what it’s called. I bought the original organic sweet potato from a local farmers market. I just microwave my sweet potato for 5 minutes and serve it with butter and s&p. Serve along side a ribeye steak and a nice green salad.
My sweet potatoes are not producing slips, from what you said I must have started too late. Thanks for sharing where i can buy some, along with all the other great information!
I'm growing Beauregard and Georgia Jet this year. I got the Georgia jets from Steele. Glad you hit on pests, something is making swiss cheese of the leave. I like to get roots started before I plant them. I love sweet potato pie. Just like pumpkin pie but sweet potato instead.
The old goat is under the cherry tomatoes on the top shelf. Sweet potato fries (NO seasoning) dipped in honey is my favorite way to eat sweet potatoes!!!
Well happy 200th, I love the rant 😎first year growing sweet potatoes down here and 10b.Plants took off like crazy in there in a raised bed covering everything, although a lot of the leaves are very least up with holes. I sprayed them with some spin aside, but I did find a small snail on one of the leaves thinking that might be my issue. Hopefully get them under control and have a halfway decent harvest.
Planted 2 kinds of corn from you guys this year as I am slowly learning to grow a years worth of certain crops. It was onions and garlic in the winter/spring ( im in texas) and it's corn for the summer! I usually grow my own sweet potato slips but I bought a bunch this year. Just trying to increase food growth/storage in general! Love watching you guys, learn so much! Happy planting!
Thanks for the info. I’m growing sweet potatoes for the first time this year. I bought my slips from Steele Plant Co. I’m growing Vardaman because they are a bush variety, and I grow in raised beds. I’m hoping for a great harvest. They were all planted out yesterday.
Can.t believe you picked my name. I grow sweet potatoes in containers. The last two years have nutrias feed on the the vines and had small potatoes. This year hope I have fixed the problem and have a good harvest. I like mine baked with butter and brown sugar. The old goat is one the shelf holding cherry tomato's.
Old goat is holding the cherry tomatoes, on the shelf to the left. “Yams” was coined by sweet potato growers in Opelousas, Louisiana. No difference just a sweet potato.
I agree with momma hoss!! Even if some things are "acceptable" to water bath I still tend to pressure can, just to be sure. (Edit to add the goat) found behind cherry maters.
I loved how you stood your ground. My Grandma and mom say the same thing about canning. the old goat is hiding behind Mr. hoss holding up some cherry tomatoes. Congratulations on 200 episode.
I am growing sweet potatoes for the first time this year so this video was perfectly timed. I know that I have issues with rootknot nematodes so I chose the yellow jewel sweet potatoes because they are supposed to be resistant. So far so good in zone 7b. The old goat is behind the cherry tomatoes above Mr. Hoss on the shelf.
Momma hoss try making sweet potato chips. Any way a sweet potato is made is good. My fave is baked I like it with butter. Momma hoss I like how you told them people to back off and leave tried and true alone especially involving canning safe to eat foods.
I grow the white varieties that arnt sweet as much...and use them like Irish potatoes and they taste like an Irish potato because they are lower sugar...so garlic butter chives. glorious the orange sweet varieties the best way I've found to eat sweet taters that will make any sweet potatoes hater into a lover is Normal size sweet tater mashed up( remove skin) with a table spoon or 2 of peanut butter with 2 or 3 dashes of cinnamon...ooooo you'll never go back. my family calls it sweet potato smush and its the best!
Thank you both I’m planting my slips this weekend so I hope you get the next sweet potato 🍠 video out this is my first time and the goat is on the shelf holding cherry tomatoes 🍅 thank you again 👍🏻 I love sweet potato cook any way but my favorite is sweet potato fried dipped in butter 🧈 😋
First time watching you!! I subscribed too. Very interesting about sweet potatoes. I'm planting this year. I'm trying in raised box bed. I ordered and rec'd some of those Japanese sweets you mentioned Greg!! It's the Myanmar Purple. I also got the Korean gold and the Lilac Beauty. Will see how they work out. The OLD GOAT is behind the tomatoes behind Greg 's head. Thanks for the video!! It caught my attention about sweet potatoes.
I’ve never planted sweet potatoes before. Tried sourcing slips locally here in Central Texas but no luck. Our family doesn’t really eat them much but wanted to give them a try this year. Edit: Just ordered some from the Steele Plant Company that you mentioned. Thanks!
Fried sweet potato hash with onions, bell peppers, garlic, whatever seasonings and salt to taste. You have to add some cayenne. Top it with a runny fried egg. That is the best.
Congratulations on 200!! Best dadgum show on the internet or anywhere! Pretty sure I've seen them all, and enjoyed every one! Get em' Mama Hoss! I agree completely on pressure canning those beans! You need that 240-242 temp that's only attainable with a pressure canner. Period. Paragraph. End of story. No matter how long you boil water you ain't getting more than 212 degrees out of it! Do folks water bath green beans, sure, but it is just not recommended at all. Ok, I'm off the soapbox now too! Follow the rules folks, it's botulism you're dealing with here. Beautiful, beautiful sunflowers!! Ok, here's the skinny on those sweet taters vs. yams: Sweet potatoes belong to the morning glory family of plants, called the Convolvulaceae family. Yams belong to a different family, called Dioscoreaceae. For practical purposes, sweet taters are lighter, sweeter, fluffier. You won't get a very appetizing yam souffle without some serious help. Yams are drier, starchier, and denser. Yams are tubers, like taters, sweet potatoes are roots.
@@gardeningwithhoss I will admit to having to "cheat" to get those proper names right. I remembered they were different families and that sweet taters were in the morning glory family, but did NOT remember the family names. I paid attention in class, but that was a LONG time ago! ;)
You all are awesome and very informative! I’ve started my first garden this year and have been binge listening to the episodes. Can’t thank you all enough! The old goat is on the shelf behind Mr. Hoss hiding in some cherry tomatoes.
Sweet potato pudding with the white potatoes. Jamaican recipe that taste best with cornmeal added. My mom use to make it outside on a coal pot with fire on top and on the bottom. Nice dessert for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
The old goat is on the cherry tomatoes. 🐐 I also have a recipe for the sweet potatoes. Peel and dice into bite size pieces. Toss in olive oil, kosher salt, cinnamon, and a little paprika or cayenne,. Roast on 425 til tender.
We have grown beauregard in northern Mo for 20 yrs, keeping our own stock going. They store in the basement with good quality at least 9 mon. here. We plant mid may, harvest right before frost. I think 9lb was the largest one we grew.
Tell em Mama Hoss, there's a lot of bad info on canning out there!!! I'm a year or so older them ya'll, born and raised here in rural Louisiana and growing and raising our own food is a way of life for us, alot of these Homestead channels you see on UA-cam are laughable, a few chickens, a couple of garden plants,, advice on most things they heard from somewhere else, and a whole bunch of merchandise and links to buy stuff from their site.🤣🤣🤣.. I'll stick with what I've learned from blood ,sweat and tears first hand.. Old Goat hiding behind the cherry tomatoes. ✌🏻
Doing my first attempt to pressure can beans this weekend, and put some sweet potato slips in the ground earlier this month. 12 slips of O'Henry variety in 9B, though I think only about 7 of that 12 have survived.
Mama Hoss, some think because they've done something wrong forever they should keep on doing it wrong. I appreciate learning the safe way even though I'm older than you. I've found that while Grandma might of raised her kids on bacteria beans, our gut health isn't as good as theirs was and I'd rather pressure cook green beans than have the trots or worse.
Ps on my UA-cam channel community page a homestead sales them with nice roots I got 40 from him he ships and they look great he has different varieties and his is inspected by that state I felt it was really important to get them into hands of people because you can eat the leaves too God bless
I grew up canning hundreds of qts of green beans every year, still do a ton, and Mama Hoss is RIGHT! There's no sense in cutting corners and risking giving botulism to your family! Love yalls show...especially corn sappin!

The leaves of the sweet potatoes are sweet and tender like spinach. I sauteed with garlic and butter! Yum, you will lov them!
Sounds delicious!
Loved those sunflowers! The Ol' Goat is hiding behind the tomatoes above Greg on the the top shelf.

Sweet potatoes as dessert sounds good to me!
Thanks for standing your ground about pressure canning your green beans. I'm one of the newbies and appreciated your video showing how to do it. Thanks, Mama Hoss. ❤️
Old goat is on shelf behind Hoss hiding behind the tomatoes. 😎
I agree Mama Hoss. If the beans were precooked hot water bath may work but all raw pack needs pressure cooked for canning safety.
I love adding sweet potatoes to my biscuit mix and my focossia bread delicious 😋
That sounds great, Sue!
Right on Mama Hoss!!!
I would love to see more canning recipes from mama hoss!!
Planted sweet potatoes for the first time this year. Old goat behind Greg and the cherry tomatoes
I planted sweet potatoes for the first time this year. I tried the purple all the way through variety. My Irish potatoes are doing great, too. They are doing well in spite of the cool temps and heavy rain.
Another Great show! The old goat is looking through the tomatoes between the scale and the gourd. Thanks again for a very informative show yall.

You will like the purple sweet potatoes I bet. They are delicious! I do buy my slips from the Potato Man. Always good products!
Good to know! :)
You are absolutely right with the canning!
thanks for the video - the old goat is behind the old goat lol on the shelf by the pumpkin and behind the red fruit.

Great advice Momma Hoss - definitely sound advice. Pressure canning is how I was taught to can green beans too.
I see the old goat behind the cherry tomatoes on the top shelf behind Greg.
I grew the purple variety you mentioned last year and it was the second best producer for me. Delicious and a good keeper.
Wonderful!
Thanks for the info. I’m growing sweet potatoes for the first time this year. I bought my slips from Steele Plant Co. I’m growing Vardaman because they are a bush variety, and I grow in raised beds. I’m hoping for a great harvest. They were all planted out yesterday.
I agree you need to pressure can green bean .Follow the guidelines for beans it says pressure can .Why take a chance making someone sick .

Thanks, Hoss for another great show. I always learn so much from you both.
Old goat is holding the cherry tomatoes, on the shelf to the left. “Yams” was coined by sweet potato growers in Opelousas, Louisiana. No difference just a sweet potato.
I found the Old Goat behind Boss Hoss’s head between the egg weigher and the pumpkin, hiding behind the tomatoes.
I agree with momma hoss!! Even if some things are "acceptable" to water bath I still tend to pressure can, just to be sure. (Edit to add the goat) found behind cherry maters.

Normal size sweet tater mashed up( remove skin) with a table spoon or 2 of peanut butter with 2 or 3 dashes of cinnamon...ooooo you'll never go back. my family calls it sweet potato smush and its the best!
Dessert for sure

Thank you
Tell em Mama Hoss, there's a lot of bad info on canning out there!!! I'm a year or so older them ya'll, born and raised here in rural Louisiana and growing and raising our own food is a way of life for us, alot of these Homestead channels you see on UA-cam are laughable, a few chickens, a couple of garden plants,, advice on most things they heard from somewhere else, and a whole bunch of merchandise and links to buy stuff from their site.🤣🤣🤣.. I'll stick with what I've learned from blood ,sweat and tears first hand.. Old Goat hiding behind the cherry tomatoes. ✌🏻
Real nice!
I save last years small sweet potatoes put in dirt pull off slips Bogard this year
Doing my first attempt to pressure can beans this weekend, and put some sweet potato slips in the ground earlier this month. 12 slips of O'Henry variety in 9B, though I think only about 7 of that 12 have survived.
Mama Hoss, some think because they've done something wrong forever they should keep on doing it wrong. I appreciate learning the safe way even though I'm older than you. I've found that while Grandma might of raised her kids on bacteria beans, our gut health isn't as good as theirs was and I'd rather pressure cook green beans than have the trots or worse.
When will plow share sets be back in stock. Loved the show.
Fingers crossed next week
Ps on my UA-cam channel community page a homestead sales them with nice roots I got 40 from him he ships and they look great he has different varieties and his is inspected by that state I felt it was really important to get them into hands of people because you can eat the leaves too God bless
