Love ItLove It

I am going to plant this

The sweet potato kept in storage has sprouted.  This is the season when tubers sprout in storage  We also have potatoes that have sprouted.

I sliced it off and have now kept it in water and placed it near the window.  I see the sprouts growing at a rapid pace.

I have decided to plant them. We did that a couple of times and we harvested sweet potatoes once but then the mongoose appeared and dug out everything that we had planted.  I will now have raised beds for this as I notice they only dig what is seen on the ground

This is the red variety but I prefer the yellow.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

  1. I have taken a huge number of cuttings from sweet potatoes and planted them just last week. I am planning to use them as indoor plants.
