Phil, what an awesome harvest! We LOVE our purple sweet potatoes that look as though they might be the same variety you grow! I just found you on KZbin & am enjoying your content so much!

[@earthnailsandtails]

Happy you found our channel and glad you enjoyed the video!

[@GardeningWithCoffee]

Wow! That's a great harvest 👏🏼😊

[@AlisonL-kb5bj]

Thanks for all the helpful info, especially the curing indoors tips, as I’m on zone 5 and have slips rooting. Happy gardening!

Love to see people from Virginia gardening 🙂

[@earthnailsandtails]

Fellow Virginian??

[@jamesvatter5729]

Thanks for sharing this video. These were impressive results. No pruning? I'm brand new to planting these. I was told pruning them back would put more into the tubers. Any truth to that?

[@TheGardenFamily]

Nice harvest Phil! Which variety do you like eating most?

[@earthnailsandtails]

Thanks Peter! oh that’s hard. I love to use them in different ways. I’d probably have to say the classic orange is my favorite just because it’s relatable but the white ones are super sweet and the purple ones have great texture and color. What about you?

[@TheGardenFamily]

@@earthnailsandtails we only grew red garnet this year which is our favorite. Red/pinkish outside with the orange inside. Will probably head to our local produce store and see about adding another color for next year!

My son Loves your videos! He's hoping to be able to teach others what he's learned from you about planting and of course chickens. Please keep inspired to teach. Thank you for all of the knowledge that you share with all.

[@earthnailsandtails]

Love this comment! It makes me so happy that I can inspire your son to take on this amazing journey and even more importantly teach people about his experience.
