Awesome! Sweet potatoes’ best companions are herbs (Thyme, oregano, dill are great ones) and alliums. I’ve heard pole beans also play well with them. You’ll want to avoid tomatoes planted close to them-will encourage disease. Oh and both winter and summer squashes aren’t good companions either. . Those are the first that come to mind! Wishing you the best of luck for a big crop!
I am impressed with your planting of sweet potato.I will also plant it in my farm in India.Good video.
Great explanation on how to get the soil right!
Thanks! I definitely didn’t know early on in growing them that they need such well draining soil. Learn from my mistakes 😉
Gosh I didn’t know starting the slips was so easy!
Happy to know they'll take the NC Heat. Planning to give it a go this year in my new raised beds. Can I plant them near other crops?
