I see all those beautiful vines going to waste and wondered if you knew. Sweet potato greens are the edible leaves of the sweet potato vine. Though widely eaten throughout Asia & Africa, they are less well known to most of us in the U.S. The good news is they're edible and delicious, high in Vitamin C and B6, and they thrive in the summer heat, unlike all the other leafy greens we crave.
You being in subtropical climate when do you start your seedlings for your tomatoes I know to grow during winter just not a start time,I enjoy your videos thanks for making them
Hi David, I actually don’t plant any tomatoes. They all naturally grow when and where they want. I’ve just posted some other examples of this on my Facebook. Feel free to join me under my same channel name. I do sometimes transplant into the main garden from other areas. Thanks also for your feedback. Feel free to share to your friends and family. :-)
@@queenslandfarmer Opps the p was a accident well then when do the volunteer tomato plants start to appear if you can stretch the memory. Thanks Dave Dreves
Nice video! Thank you for sharing. Could you please tell me the size of the sweetpotato bed so I can estimate what I can roughly expect from my garden as I plan it out?
@@queenslandfarmer Thank you for your quick reply. That is an amazing harvest. I agree with you that sweet potato is an easy way to get food security. Please keep posting more videos. Cheers.

Hi and thanks for your question. The garden bed is about 10 square meters (107 square feet). Best of luck with your planting.

AWESOME harvest!!!! I am about to plant some sweet potato slips this week!!!
Thanks. I hope you have as much success as we did.
How many slips did you plant?
We didn’t actually plant any. These have been self propagating since we bought the place 3 years ago. We got a similar yield last year.
Does the green netting block the sun rays.....
Yes, it’s 50% shade cloth.
