Massive 300 POUND Sweet Potato Harvest!

[@vidasustentavel9465]

It's really cool to see people growing their own food. It would be great if more people acquired this habit. In addition to improving our health by consuming healthier foods, we contribute to preserving our planet by reducing the use of pesticides. Congratulations on sharing your knowledge and experience with us.

I learn from you AND you make me laugh. 😂 You are awesome!

[@donavonbain4332]

I was gonna ask how to prep for storage, and chose to wait to ask. And you didnt disappoint! Warm and humid! And dark! I wouldve not guessed that! I would've assumed warm and humid would cause them to mold! Thanks!

[@donavonbain4332]

Grate some sweet potato, like use a cheese grater. And add it to the batter of a catfish fry. (Usually have to add some egg white to get it to stick, or whole egg). I found this by happen accident. Just trying to figure proper way to blend the sweet potato with the catfish. It's an amazing combination!

[@mistygeller3193]

I am absolutely cracking up!! Giant mutant potato’s with personalities each their own makes me giggle too!! Good job girly!!

[@ss1be]

I’m about to harvest my 6 sweet potato plants. I can relate to the excitement you have for what you reaped. Those are the biggest sweet potatoes I’ve ever seen. Great video.

[@joanneth4919]

This was one of the most fun video on KZbin. I found myself laughing as you uncovered your mutant big sweet potatoes. Then you rolling up the vines. Reminding of I Love Lucy again making me laugh belly laughs. And the final tally was shocking. 300 lbs if sweet potatoes. Magnificent job Kim.

[@thefourseasonsinsweden]

Wow,many sweet potatoes and huge ❤

[@thefourseasonsinsweden]

Maybe a thousand, just kidding❤😂maybe my English is not enough for you to understand but anyway, never mind what I said 😂

[@Retired_SeniorChief]

I love harvesting sweet potato

[@barbarabeagley6650]

I weighed my tomatoes once by going to the co-op with them in 5 gallon buckets in the bed of my truck. I had 180lbs that time. Went home and canned tomatoes all day and the next, then picked more the day after that. I was selling them to 2 local grocery stores and keeping friends and family supplied.

[@Mike-yl6bs]

Holy cow now that’s a haul !!!!! Nice job 👍👍👍

[@jujubee7351]

Wow great harvest! Nice video

[@lauriesickles5393]

This was the best video ever! My husband and I were belly laughing😂Well done growing those spuds!!

[@donavonbain4332]

I found your channel by accident, looking for gardening. Also, homesteading, which may be more the case. Anyway! Hannah Lee Dugan is a homesteader of sorts. And she said 'I found contentment in just being, not expecting anything to work, because it often doesn't, so when it does, it's a happy surprise. Im still me, and im still fine, but now i got this too!'(paraphrased), Sorta like you! Just not expecting it to fail. Slightest modification of mindset can help. Soooo much in homesteading is out of our control. God helps alot! 😉 Tempering our expectations is incredibly important! Much love to you and your endeavors!

[@ronaldshort9819]

I've been following Jess and miah for about 5 or 6 years but I'm glad to discover you guys recently, we have friends in Indiana and Ohio so it's interesting to see your weather and we love your homestead farm 😊

Hi nice to see your video.its so fun n exciting.its common in my country.however i enjoy with your video ❤

[@janicemason-dorah2327]

Great harvest ❤

[@BrendaBodwin]

300lbs of sweet potatoes is a great haul. Next year, leave the ground cover off, or take it off after they start vining.. you'll get more potatoes, and they won't be as big as your head. That big, you almost have to can them, or they will be woody. You cure them for sweetness only. The flavor is the same, just sweeter if cured.

[@Crash-549-vh1]

Love sweet potatoes with butter cinnamon an a little sugar or brown sugar cool videos

[@deanyanko3326]

I use the four wheeler to drag too heavy things like logs vines etc.

[@jef8528]

Amazing….. great job

[@donavonbain4332]

11:53 you struggling, me looking at four-wheeler behind you!😂 make a bindertwine noose grabby thing maybe? And use 4 wheeler to pull it all off?

[@donavonbain4332]

12:10 that's the start of like 2 large round bails of hay! I know that some weight! Hey! That's why you don't need a gym membership! Farm work is harder than gym work outs

[@deanyanko3326]

I wonder if growing them under the landscape fabric caused the freak size sweet potatoes ?

[@Bigpinehealingfarm]

Well done! I have just started my channel, I enjoyed your video

maybe hook your 4 wheeler to the foliage and drag it -- does your 4 wheeler have a winch?

[@rollysamson3662]

What a nice content I love farming by the way take care I'm watching kuwait.

[@trudellallen397]

Very awesome

[@jeffreyoneill2625]

Hi did you put any fertiliser in the soil before you planted the slips ? and did you apply any while the plants where growing if you did what fertiliser did you use , amazing crop of sweet potatoes well done 👏

[@honeytrailfarm]

nope! these things just went crazy!

[@SonyMills]

BEAUTIFUL!! What variety are they?

[@honeytrailfarm]

Beauregard!

[@marta77inf]

Bow long did you have them in the ground ? What did youfeet them with

[@honeytrailfarm]

About 18 weeks and surprisingly they were just grown in native soil! Lol

[@cindymoore9096]

As an occasional purchaser of sweet potatoes, I would definitely buy the gigantic ones if I was making a recipe so I’d only have to peel one. Lol

[@kcjilly2515]

Good gosh Fertile Mertyl! Those are some big tators! 😂

[@RobinsTinyHomestead]

I watched one video where they put them in the greenhouse and they were cooked in two days.

[@honeytrailfarm]

I would literally cry lol

[@peggyridgeway7928]

that look fun. you made me want to help you i live doing that kind of work but i would look like i have never had a bath how do you not get so dirty

[@marywilson7669]

I can’t believe you were wearing your diamond rings without gloves at first

[@vancetillum3246]

Do the big ones taste just as good as "normal" sized ones? Just curious.

[@honeytrailfarm]

Yes! Same flavor just ginormous 😂

[@olgamika7734]

Feed those vines to your cows! Mine loved them.

[@neverlatefarm4]

Super entertaining video - you poor girl LOL I was watching Bri From Scratch do her sweet potatoes and she also cured them in her greenhouse. THEY BAKED ON HER IN THERE and she was trying to find a way to save them. That would be devastating. You may be ok since you're in Indiana and she's in North Carolina (where it's warmer probably) but do keep an eye on them! My question is, just how are you going to deal with those human baby sized ones? LOL How does one even start the process of cutting that thing up to cook!

[@honeytrailfarm]

Oh no!! I will definitely keep my eye on them. Not gonna lie I would cry if I lost 300 lbs of potatoes 😅

[@honeytrailfarm]

Also those would definitely be the ones I would turn into fries or something chopped up. Can you imagine a baked sweet potato that big? 😂

[@trudellallen397]

They have runners that is away from the plant

[@dvrmte]

Looks like voles are getting your taters. They're what I call underground rats. LOL I've had them eat an entire peanut crop and I didn't realize it until I tried to harvest them. The ground under the row was a honeycomb of tunnels and burrows. They lived under the plants. I dug foot deep trenches around my garden to prevent them from entering from wooded areas. They don't like to cross the ditch outside of their shallow tunnels. I also dropped gopher and rat poison in their tunnels. I rarely have trouble any more.

[@honeytrailfarm]

Ugh they are the worst!

[@deanyanko3326]

they will eat your potatoes if you don't harvest on time beets carrots too.

[@bobsblues9944]

What variety of sweet potato is this ?

Beauregard!
