I ordered some sweet potato slips from Sand Hill. I haven't planted sweet potatoes before, but am excited to try them out. Has any one grown them who could offer some tips. I have an area by my back fence where I am going to plant them. Any hints on preparing the soil? Should I use a raised bed? Doing online research they look fairly easy and seem less finicky than regular potatoes. I am also planting regular and fingerling potatoes but am using the container method for planting them. This forum has been very helpful in answering my questions on potatoes. Hope we can extend it to sweet potatoes.
Thanks, Carol |
