Yacon VS Sunchoke Harvest In Containers

[@yasminnilima2366]

I love my sunchokes! I grow them in a hugelbed that is 50 meters long x 1 meter wide. (164feet x 3.28 feet). Mine are named Bianca. Here there are many different kinds. Yacoon, love them too. I am more of a stu person so mix in all kinds of rootveggies in my cooking. The root that look like "sweet potato " are for eating. The roots that looks like sunchoke is for replanting. And you Will get some more! Love your energy! Lot's of love from Sweden!

[@wranther]

Love your energy Wendi! The lush green behind you is refreshing to see as winter slowly melts away. Happy Gardening! -Bob...

[@wendiland]

Wran Ther thank you Bob! Greenery will be there too, sooner than you think! Happy soon to be spring!

[@taiyarixochachavez2761]

I've never tried a sunchoke!! But here is South Carolina they grow wild all over the edge of roads and woodlands, I've always enjoyed the blooms late in summer 😊 I may try growing some to eat!!

[@mrcharrington1]

Great video. I planted some Sunchokes 6 months ago in S.C. My wife pulled some up thinking they were weeds. With luck, I'll have some of the same success you had. Thanks so much.

[@yorkshirecoastadventures1657]

I left my Sunchokes in the soil over the autumn and early winter,here in the UK. The got absolutly hammered by slugs. I think better results are to be had container growing. My neighbours enjoyed the flowers though.

[@wendiland]

Moa constrictor oh what a waste... Try container next time and store the tubers in sand and bring indoor next time. Happy Gardening!

[@yorkshirecoastadventures1657]

@@wendiland Thanks,will do Wendi. Slugs and snails are a big issue here due to our wet climate.

[@aureliarizon47]

I never eat this but i wanted to get and buy a seedling if ever where i can buy . I will check it out. Thanks for showing.

[@vpgarden5986]

I bought some sunchokes from Trader Joes 3 years ago and planted them right into the ground and ate half of them. I've been getting sunchokes every winter/spring and always missed some in the ground and they grew again. Caution, they gave me gas(TMI?)! LOL.

[@textiles4tots]

I’ve never had either of these root veggies. Would love to see a video on how to prepare/cook them. Thank you for this info. Might give them a try in the garden this year!

[@Oceanaqua1]

I am growing sun chokes for the first times. Your videos are always uplifting. Thank you🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

[@wendiland]

Teresa Mac have fun growing!

[@mikewilson8054]

wow like your videos learn a lot from them thank you for sharing.

[@lyndabuchholz1216]

I wonder if a tote would work for the yacon's? Maybe for both!

[@christysoto7686]

What is the powder ur sprinkling as u add the yacon crowns to the container?

[@purbious1030]

Awesome video, I want to plant some sunchokes, growing cassava for now.

[@BuzzingBees24]

Hi Wendi...I love your garden. So beautiful!!!! I do want to try to add some yacon in my yard. Do you recommend where can I get some please? I check Esty but I don't trust some of the source. 😁

[@veggiemikeellis]

Watch out for the FARTichoke!!! Good vid.

[@BeachBum-tb1dc]

Thanks for the video. I also live in SoCal. I planted six Jeruselum Artichoke plants in my garden and they are doing great right now and getting big. I didn't know much about them but knew they were a good survival food. I wasn't sure about how to eat them but after watching your video I'm excited to try them raw as you did since I'm also looking to eat as healthy as possible and want to benefit from the probiotics in them as you describe. I also have many other veggies growing. So fun. Take care and looking forward to more of your videos.

[@wendiland]

Sounds exciting! I’m sure your harvest will be plentiful!

[@hoosierhiver]

I'm in zone 6, how do I keep them alive until spring?

[@shamanking5195]

Hi Wendy; do you know where can I get some crowns or splits to plant it ???

[@Mourningdove702]

What's in the cylindrical container that you were shaking into the soil during the replanting at the end of the video?

[@yerola4155]

Good stuff I love yacon, but I never put them in a pot with soil. just keep them together in a large pot and in mid february I start potting them add a little water. then put them near the window. tomorrow I have to harvest mine by monday it will be -4℃ in the Netherlands

[@wendiland]

Hope you had a great harvest! Stay warm!

[@glumGlumm]

Where did u purchase the seed tubers? Can we purchase one from u?

[@carmenliedke8659]

Wendy do you sell yucan crown's. Let me know, I like to buy some.

[@melchorkaamino5115]

congratulations those are nice plants i like spicy ginger,lemon,tomato,spring onion, grilled eggplant salad 😁

[@marcoguillen9084]

How you got the seeds? Or where can i get the plant?

[@amybai8311]

Wow! got some many sunchokes in one pot! Great job! I love sunchokes, but I can't find any of them in local grocery store. I tried to plant some in my back yard, I already buried some last winter, but nothing comes out by now. I live in Texas, do you know what time they will germinate?

[@babochon]

Love to grow them this year. Do you know how tolerant they are from deer or rabbits?

[@Mourningdove702]

When you store the yacon crown over winter, does it need any watering or just let the soil dry out?

[@wendiland]

I give soil very light spray, not very often.

[@RalphAnderson7605]

Hi how many litres are those pots? Thanks

[@suetpingcheung8059]

Where to buy the yacon plant

[@gambitsfox4216]

I'm growing sunchokes for the first time and hopefully Yacon for the 2nd time. My dogs ate my Yacon the first time and it was so beautiful! With the Yacon I had crosnes growing...guess they ate them too.😭

[@wendiland]

aww Guess your dog knows what's good for them! Try again. :) Stay safe!

[@mamadonna3598]

Wendi, I wonder if those sun chokes would do well in our warm Hawaii climate...any idea?

[@wendiland]

Mamadonna Stokes doesn’t hurt to try, but I can’t see why it won’t work. It’s a hardy plant. Make sure grow in loose, well drain soil.

[@wildedibles819]

I grow sun chokes in a few areas of my yard :) love them but rabbits love them more :)

[@wildedibles819]

Sunchokes are the last flowers out for bees and butterflys I love them for that

[@wildedibles819]

I froze my sunchokes... You can store them in sand well but freezing is so posed to sweeten them up

[@wildedibles819]

I heard about fermenting them but it becomes starchy doesn't look appealing so we tossed it I tried it but not that good so didn't want anymore

[@wildedibles819]

Maybe ferment then dry it for a starchy flour I'm always looking for flour ideas...

[@wendiland]

Wild Edibles as long as you grow enough to share. ;)

[@tiffaniashment8813]

Hi what size container did you use

[@jenagarcia1728]

wonder if I could grow yacon in northern Illinois...how long do they need before frost?

[@wendiland]

I believe they are hardy to zone 8-10. Need at least 5-6 months of warmth. I would get then started indoor in colder regions.

[@tienmckinnon1662]

I like to buy a plant Yacon from you Windy.

[@Plantodyssee]

Where did you purchase thevyacon and sunchokes? I havent seen them in my area.

[@wendiland]

I’ve been growing sunchokes for a while. You can check Etsy. Your grocery might carry sunchokes too. If I have extra I’ll put them on Wendiland.com

[@wildindianstrinis7533]

I love your vids 😄😃😀

[@wendiland]

wild indians Trinis thank you!

[@LoanNguyen-he1ug]

Em mua giong nay o dau vay

[@denguyen2395]

[@bangtanbangtan7001]

[@Trish72]

Jicima is a root vegetable that is fairly popular in the south. Found in the produce section.

[@airinbone]
