    I don't use what holder either. I simply turn the first 2-3 inches over the top and that does a pretty good job of holding it open. Then I unfold as I need it to go higher. Works well for me.

    Watch Dandy and Wanda at Deep South Homestead on Sweet Potatoes. They need to be cured to bring out the sweetness. They have 2 or more wonderful videos on how to do this. The soil has to be very loose so I would suggest to add peat and leaves to loosen up your heavy soil. I really didn't know you could just eat them straight out of the garden because you need to raise the sugar content. Another good channel that give every thing you need for all vegetables is Hollis and Nancy.

    What a wonderful use of the sweet potatoes! For using what couldn’t be stored you provided some amazing options for your family. Like Matt I am not a fan of sweet potatoes but my husband is. After a disappointing first attempt to grow them, I’ve decided to just buy what I need to preserve some options for my husbands enjoyment. I’d rather utilize the space on something I know I can grow. I think you’ll have an amazing time at HOA. The speaker lineup is inspiring. Have a blessed day Kelsey!

    I feel your pain, my tomatoes all ended up with end rot after taking forever to even ripen. This year for me was not a good year for any crop.

Im ready for fall and winter.

    Could you do a video talking a bit more about home schooling. How it works, where you get the work or lesson plans, how it gets recorded as grades for leading up to future graduation.

    I find sweet potatoes are super sensitive to dry conditions when they are in the beginning of their life cycle and they really like sandier/looser soil. I also find they do better for me in warmer/hotter summers.

    My husband brought home a huge box of sweet potatoes last fall just as I was getting into canning, so I canned most of them and now have jars and jars of sweet potatoes I'm struggling to figure out what to do with. 😅 My one son who really loves sweet potato casserole moved out earlier this year, so I'm looking for new recipes to branch out with and get these used up. Definitely going to give those breakfast cookies a try! I bet they would be good with dried cranberries or raisins added to them. Oooh and toasted pecans! Yum.

    Sweet potatoes thrive on sunshine - for the best yields - all day hot drying sunshine. At least that is my experience. SUN shine. Awesome video (as always) and it all looks so good - got to try your pancakes, muffins, biscuits. Oh my, they look so good for you! I've never liked gnocchi as they felt like I was chewing on old hardened gum. You used cheese to fight that and I simply must try your recipe just in case I'm missing something really good - every one seems to like gnocchi and I want to enjoy it also. THANKS!

    Loved all the recipes!!! I've made sweet potato brownies. biscuits, and rolls, but not gnocchi, cookies, or pancakes. I love sweet potato so much so now I'm itching to branch out! Somewhere I've seen someone rice potatoes with a mesh strainer but I don't remember if it was a tight mesh strainer or one with bigger holes. Worth a try the next time you have to do it. On the harvest, I've had similar issues where the first time growing sweet potatoes they were abundant and subsequent years not so much. Was wondering if it was a weather thing, or just that the first time was in a brand new bed with fresh, fluffy soil. While your bed was not compacted by normal standards, the way you were struggling with the hori hori makes me think it probably was too compacted for the potatoes. That said, it was probably compacted by the heavy rains, so not much you could do about it without adding something like vermiculite, which is what I plan on doing next year for all my root crops because I had the same issues with carrots and regular potatoes. On the shovel as a poor choice for harvesting potatoes, may I respectfully suggest you use it differently. With the blade at that angle you couldn't avoid stabbing them. However, if you rotate the shovel so the blade faces you and angle the handle, you can work the blade down the edge of the bed and then lift the handle upright and away from you to pop the soil. Backwards? yes. Will it work without investing in another tool to store? absolutely.

    Co-incidentally, I was watching a bunch of sweet potato harvesting videos today. The best were from a man in Indiana who harvested his 12' by 2' beds located by a semi-shady wall next to his small suburban house. His sweet potatoes were abundant and enormous I noticed his soil was quite deep and loamy. If you're interested the name of his channel is "City Lot Gardening". P.S., have you ever tried using an ice cream scoop to portion out muffin batter? Or a meat ball scoop to portion out cookies? Couple of my favorite kitchen hacks. All the food looked delicious. I'd love a couple of those biscuits for breakfast. Yum! ☺
