Thank you for sharing the joy of your awesome harvest! My, husband, son, toddler and I enjoyed watching that. Now everyone wants to try growing sweet potatoes on our patio this year!
@ Bob don't think it is a waste of time. We learn from sharing our knowledge and experience with each other. Don't be ... stingy and sarcastic when sharing what you know. One day someone may have a nugget of info for you but not care to give it due to a snide comment. I don't wish that for you so I AM sharing that nugget.
@@stephaniebell9093 I’m sorry no disrespect , but RUclips is a great learning platform, yes, but I (people) don’t appreciate when other people making videos to apparently show you something , when they are NOT very knowledgeable and Shouldn’t really post. Some like to hear themselves talk rabble on ..... If everybody did this , we would Waste More Time trying weed Thru the non-sense to learn ! I’m sorry but people need to hear these comments too so they will Not to post Just To Post something!
@bobt471 so Where's your video? I learned you can successfully grow sweet potatoes in a 20 gallon bucket, how much I can expect to get per bucket, growing up a trellis was smart... Don't be a dickhead
This was not only exciting but also very relaxing to watch. Even the interaction with your lady with the camera was very enjoyable. Thank you very much for your video.
Just to let you know, and it is only what I have been told as I am a "Newbie" at growing sweet potatoes, you are not supposed to wash them right away and you should put them in a shady spot to dry out and cure for a few days. Also I have been told that sweet potatoes don't become"sweet" until a couple of weeks after harvest. Like I said, I am new to this so , don't shoot the pigeon, I am only passing on what I have been told. Anyway, good luck, hope you enjoy your harvest, you have a great crop there. Take care and stay safe, Sandie from Ontario Canada.
That's some good advice. I have heard some of the same. This was my first harvest and I am now growing my 3 time so we constantly keep learning from each other. thanks!
What a gorgeous harvest. I wonder what kind of tea you could make from the thin smaller roots? Also, my mom taught me to plant the potatoes in the bottom, once the plant flowers, add more dirt to cover. Continue this until the end of the season. When you dump your bucket, you should have layers of potatoes.
I don't know if anybody said this already but your Nuts and Bolts coming from squirrels and things, they love hiding things. BEAUTIFUL FANTASTIC HARVEST...you got the touch, keep growing Julues
Best sweet potato harvest video. Relaxing and exciting to watch, you didn't skip anything or fast forward or turn the camera away. Was great watching you discover them with your hands, felt like I was there. Great harvest too :)
I am so excited by just looking at what you got. It's really a pleasure to watch you guys as I also a sweet potato farmer, just a beginner he he..❤️🇯🇵👍🏼
I usually use a mixture of garden soil, compost and fertilizer. mix it all in and that is it. They don't need much more than that. the soil should be light and loose to make them grow bigger.
I have grown sweet potatoes and other potatoes by placing the slips under a foot thick cover of dead leaves. When the vines die, just rake the leaves off and pick them up.
Wow can't get any easier than that what are you get sweet potato slips from I want to grow sweet potatoes but I don't even know how to start I live in town but I have a front porch and a balcony to grow things on that's pretty good Sun just don't even know where to start
Thelma Edwards Poole Hi.. I tried that in my backyard I had a garden spot in backyard..they did nothing..I did much better any gigantic landscape pots ..you can get them free where they’re putting in apartment complexes or re landscaping..they are at the dumpsters piled up..I had a nice harvest from those big pots ..but putting my slips under the leaves didn’t do anything..It could have been the gigantic tree that shades my garden I don’t get very much sun .. that’s why I have to plant in the middle of the yard in pots..
Lori Sanford It’s very easy. Go to the grocery store and look in the organic section of the produce department. Select the type of sweet potato or yam you want to grow. Be sure that the tater is organic and has a decent number of dimples (those will be the eyes). You grow the slips by putting sections of the selected tater in containers of water, using skewers or toothpicks to suspend the sections. You can also search “sweet potato slips” here on RUclips to have it fully demonstrated. It’s insanely easy and fun too. Good luck!
@@katlynnsmith7547, it was not getting enough Sun & wet soil. It needs loose soil. Water less often & just enough amount of water. The ground must be well drain off. Tree leaves are one of the best plant nutrients feed. You must keep adding the Leaves when they breaks down & dried up. If you plant in pot it must be wide & at just 1.5 foots deep. Drill lots of medium size holes. Place slips 2 foots a part to get a better shape, single, & more yeild. Lot of plant foods & fertized at least once a month. Place plant food & fertizer in between the spacing. Gave each slip equal amount of both plant feeds. If use the ground you have to place metal screen on all sides including the top surfaces. Squirrels & other ground diggers will eats all your havest if not. It takes 5 to 6 months to grow before harvesting. It loves the Sun with at least 12 hours. All day sunshine. If you have land do composing. Use all your Kitchen wastes. As for Egg shelves wash off the Whites & Yokes clean. Then dried off & crumble them before adding to compost pile.
The ideal container will be shallow and flat not bucket so that the twigs can crawl and produce more SP because thats what the twigs want and the SP want to feel the sun so they stay on top of the bucket. Ideally or the best is plant them on the ground with a mixture of rough Sand and coconut husk shredded and compost; see how much harvest you'll have next time.
I used my sweet potatoes as a ground cover and after two years I had self seeding and continuous harvest. This year is my first in a raised bed so it will be interesting. Don’t mistake tubers for roots. Put them in a paper bag in a dark place and plant them out when ur ready again
Wow what a bumper crop. I'm growing potatoes for thefirst time and i am anxious to harvest them but have decided to give them another month to mature. Also hoping to see some flowers.
I like your correlation to the digging for dinosaurs. So true. With all those vines you could've gotten tons more potatoes if you had kept burying them. Did you ever see the guy who planted just a few of them in a long narrow patch? He just kept burying the vines and they grew all along them, and he got I think several hundred pounds of potatoes! My first sweet potatoes had roots growing through the drain holes and produced potatoes in the ground below. I had to dig them out. So seeing what you did, I'll have to put some netting at the bottom of my pots to prevent that from happening. : )
Yeah, I saw that. Pretty neat you got as many as you did in those buckets! I had a shallow box that I have brought with me when I moved and never did anything to it, but still ended up with 5 medium sized sweet potatoes at the bottom of the box. Now I have to cure them. Ok here's his video. I was mistaken on the weight, but still pretty impressive...I want to do the same thing myself, only in 5 gal buckets. ruclips.net/video/XhcbQ8X_JqY/видео.html Amazing Sweet Potato Harvest: 139 lbs from 3 Potatoes
Oh yeah, I will probably just plant one in a bucket. Hmm, I don't have full sun in the room where I'm growing my other plants. Maybe I should put a light on them.
Every time I go to watch a video I look at the time first and do I really want to spend that much time on this video but this video was worth every minute thank you
Next year, I would try without the container, put newspaper down and plant the potatoes without breaking ground. Might find even bigger potatoes. But this is a cool idea too
I thinking maybe if you could. do a raised bed a little shallow and do the sides that could be let down maybe with a drip hose.for water . .the vinesneed room good try peggy
Nice results of growing something and getting them back to eat, I grow pumpkin alright but I had one medium size pumpkin , I am grateful and happy there is veggies to cook for me cos I am vegetarian
Yes, it is. Too bad it takes soooo long....6 month. For the next year we will try to grow some "regular" potatoes, that you cant find at the store. I want to try blue Peruvien and German white potatoes. Baked pumpkin kasha with apples is yummy.
I love your video. I Enjoyed watching you harvesting. I'm gonna try to plant in buckets too next spring. Great potatoes
Glad you liked it!
That was an EPIC HAUL!! We are anxiously waiting for our sweet potato harvest. Thanks for sharing!

Dumping out on a tarp will make for easier clean up and reuse of soil easy.
I'm now very hungry for sweet potatoes :)
Agreed !,it is really messy ,not really organized person😁🤣😂

OMG now I know containers are a real possibility for growing what we in NZ call kumara. Thank you so much for the heads up.✅✅🌹
Very nice idea I will try this because I got very small garden will try to grown in the big pot like you got thank you for sharing .

I love mashed sweet potatoes. Moistened with creamy milk and butter. Spiced with nutmeg and chives. Delicious!
We love to mash our sweet potatoes and mix them in with regular potatoes as well. Yummy!👍

Then I could return my soil to the container.
Good video
Pamela Brooks Exactly. 👍🏼
Pamela Brooks 👍🏼 I think this was the first time he grew potatoes in containers.

Wow so many sweet things
I am so fascinated by your harvest!
Amazing harvest, very cool.
We were really surprised as we didn't really know how well it would work. The part of the yard gets hours of Texas hot sun.
silvia hölsche
Great harvest/yield. My guess 19 or 20 lbs. I might try containers next year.
it ended up about double that, give it a try, just need plenty of sun

Preserving rain water with deep soil just as they did. Awesome production of tatters. I'd go with their 100 percent
Wow ! I suggest you to plant sweet potato in ground it produce more sweet potatoes.
Love this sweet potatoes...
That was totally sweet treasure, nice and good

Que maravilla larga la tijera muchacho y usa las dos manos.te felicito que maravilla de cosecha.
Hope you remember to save a couple of the tubers back so you can grow your own "slips" for the next years crop. Sandie.
That was awesome! And all that potting soil on the lawn... go ahead and spread it around to extend your garden for NEXT year!
My hubby did that all over the yard. Plus he built 4 more raised beds. I have no room for my flowers.....:( ruclips.net/video/vCXzrMApE50/видео.html
Wow AMAZING thank u , Josette from Montgomery County, Texas 🙏🏻

they seem to like a lot of light and they don't mind the high temperatures either

Sweet potatoes are our favorite. They love the heat & we have plenty of that in Southwest Kansas 🥵
Amazing harvest thank you for sharing
Agreed! That was an amazing haul from containers.
You sir are my hero! Just one thing. I've heard from different sources that green sweet potatoes are not poisonous like regular potatoes are.
I think you might be right. Not sure but I think sweet potatoes are different than regular potatoes so they should be safe
Awesome video abundant harvest gonna try it thanks for sharing watching from Philippines thumbs up🤡🤡🤡
