Very cool! We are in the PNW near Salem, OR, and this is our second year growing sweet potatoes. I'm trying out 15gal fabric grow bags, with 2-3 plants a piece. Some of them have a pepper, tomato, or Basil also tucked in as experiments. But in our main bed, I've added a 2-3' wide strip of 6mil plastic on each row, cut a hole and inserted the plant. When temps are only getting to the 80s, I'm slinging some fabric row cover over top (we have a pvc tunnel frame over it) to help hold in some additional heat. They seem to be really loving it so far. I did try putting a few fresh slips in without roots, and the leaves burned to a crisp during this heat wave. But otherwise all the other plants are looking awesome. Though the grow bags really need to be watered frequently. They dry out so fast. Can't wait to see what the haul looks like in October!

I use the large kiddie pools from Walmart. I cut large holes in the bottom and sit it directly on the ground. Good amount of space for only $14.

[@ValleyGrowingGardens]

That’s a great idea! I use those kiddie pools to cover my compost piles .. they are handy and cheep .. happy gardening !

[@bluefeatherhomestead]

What a GREAT video!! That was a lot of work. I love that you brought us along with you on this experiment. You have definitely inspired me to try sweet potatoes again. For some reason I haven't had much luck with potatoes. I enjoy the message that you are sending across the world.... use what you've got. You CAN grow food. Thanks again for sharing.

[@chirigringo777]

[@amysizemore5287]

The little ones are so good. Cook smash put butter and red pepper flakes and broil for a minute

[@mariabaskerville5676]

Thank you for an awesome video the best video I have seen in a long time...I love your experiment and how you want through each pot fast to show us..thank you again

[@GardeningWithCoffee]

Amazing 😊

[@ValleyGrowingGardens]

Thank you so much!

[@rosewood9839]

Don’t feed them. Maybe some bone meal, but that’s all. Not even compost. And they like some sand. Great harvest! Just a suggestion from the hot, sunny south.

The garden men 😂😂😂

[@user-gv3bm1ts4x]

Great demonstration

[@ValleyGrowingGardens]

Thank you. I have been curious about this for a while.

[@myhomeandgardenchanneldwel7777]

Hi it is my first time on your channel and I have just subscribed to you. Great idea, thank you so much for sharing. Keep up the good work. All the best on this journey.

[@melclark281]

The first part of the video was perfect ( Frame wise), but then you made the frame smaller which wasn't good for my eyes. So based on the photo , your harvest wasn't bad

[@adontee1960]

What state are you in? This is the first year I'm going to attempt sweet potatoes. I absolutely love them. I ordered some slips Beauregard Sweet Potatoes. I live in the Midwest a small town in Wisconsin I'm hoping to get them planted by next week. I'm thinking it will stay warm long enough. 🤷‍♀️

[@anthonygilbert6878]

Curious trying sweet potatoes 1st time this year gonna try a 60 gallon grow bag how many slips would you suggest planting in it? Gonna plant june 1st safest no frost date here in Colorado!

[@mskj1719]

June? Shouldn't you have grown these until at least August?

[@pa.fishpreacher6166]

what did you use for container mix?

[@scross450]

Is that "Wilson" (Tom Hanks' friend in Castaway) in your yellow wheelbarrow?

[@heavenlyscentzsoycandlesth2850]

I have mine in a 5 gallon bucket and its vine is growing long outside the bucket. What do I do? Trellis? Cut them?

[@heavenlyscentzsoycandlesth2850]

Do I push the vines inside the pot to root?

[@victorzammit5823]

Nice for a 3gallon pot

[@victorzammit5823]

Can you explain how to start the sweet potato

[@cheersmeme]

Hi,, I have never grown sweet spuds before. I'm wanting to try it this year. I'm getting confused tho. lol Searching on Google & YT Videos says... It will only grow from,,,, Slips, Only the organic ones will grow. Slice it long ways lay it on top of the soil. Slice it in chunks & bury them deep. AND , this is the best,,,, It's really hard to grow sweet potatoes.. lol No wonder I'm confused 😕😕😂🤣🤷‍♀🤷 I have finally found the prof I need lol Thank you. I have a Question .. In your opinion, What ones are true? Could I treat it like a normal spud. Cut it in half then bury it in the garden, or in a big fabric bag? Or does it have to be a hole spud? I have 8 Rubbermaid bins in my dining room lol , full of Red Wiggler Worms. The more I grow of anything in the summer, The more food to bag and freeze to feed my worms all winter. Cutting the spuds in half, planting them a foot or so away from each other, would they just grow the same amount as they would if I just left them hole ? or would there be more?? I'm so happy I found your video about this Thank you Cheers from Toronto Canada

[@mskj1719]

Does anyone know if we can propagate new sweet potatoes from the vines? 🤔

[@gigi-iv4gj]

I think so. Check on another videos.

[@LoydKilgore-rd9zk]

That's how sweet potatoes are propagated where a leaf grows from the vine that node is what grows the new plant.

[@alicecowan3499]

Does Mr Garden Guy have a name? Lol
