    You can also eat the green ones they apply only to potatoes. Potatoes are related to night shade family and you cannot eat the green parts but sweet potatoes belong to the Morning Glory family and you can eat the green part.

    Your container potatoes fared so much better than the in-ground. Darn voles are also ruining my flower garden. Yes, just cut off below the green on those white sweet potatoes. Nice harvest David.

    Deer ruined my sweet potatoes, and voles ate them and my Egyptian walking onions up here 45 minutes north of you.
    I'm buying 7.5' fencing and also just now fabric grow bags. I'm hoping voles won't chew through them! I have eight 17 gal tubs for potatoes and sweet potatoes

      This is the first year I have noticed critters digging down to the potatoes to eat them. I think that is squirrels. Seems to be way too many squirrels this year. So many wooded areas around me have been destroyed for these lousy 3-4 story apartment complexes. I think that has the squirrels bunching up and really hungry.

    hi,ive watched a few of your sweet potato videos and was wondering if you add fertilizer while they are growing or do you just add some to your pots when you start planting out

    • @GrowAndEatThis
      @GrowAndEatThis  Год назад +2

      I try every 3 weeks or so to give the plants a good fish emulsion or earthworm casting tea fertilizer. If the containers settle some I will top them off with fresh compost.

    • @GrowAndEatThis
      @GrowAndEatThis  2 года назад +2

      I think either squirrels or possums ate the sweet potatoes down from the top. We have not had as many foxes around this year and no coyotes at all. Results, gillians of squirrels digging up everything.

    I’m a bit nervous watching the harvest. He is a bit rough with it. The potatoes might get bruised. Great harvest though.

  • @mariomarcial1487
    @mariomarcial1487 2 года назад +2

    Yes you can eat the whole sweet potato even though there are some greening parts exposed to sunlight because it is not poisonous not the same as the real potatos where the green parts are exposed to sunlight it will make you feel uncomfortable even death.
