    I have accidental slips growing in a plastic bag. To remind myself to go ahead and cook it I put it on the shelf near my window still in its bag. When I remembered it 2 weeks later it had 4 slips growing. I left it in its bag to see what else I get. It's a Hawaiian purple.😋

    Perfect timing! I was looking at my sweet potatoes (in water) and was wondering what to do with them! You answered my question! 🌞 They made great roots underwater, but not much up top UNTIL I put the jars of water on heat!! They are tropical heat lovers, and now I have slips galore!! 😊 I can afford to be patient- 7.5 weeks till last frost and we are having a lot of wind and some snow today! Thank you for the sweet potato update! Have an awesome day! ☕😊

    Last year I was able to get a ton of sprouts from SP in water, then snapped them off and rooted in water (like he’s doing here). Planted them in large 15-20 gallon pots. Ended up with sweet potatoes at the end of the season. It was so much fun! SP vines will root wherever they touch the ground. Just FYI, sweet potato leaves are edible! Maybe I’ll do grow them again next year, but this year I’m going to use the space to grow compact watermelon and cantaloupe! 🤤

    I started a sweet potato in a jar of water and 2 more in a tray of potting mix. All 3 potatoes put out slips evenly for the first couple weeks. Now the water potato has basically stopped putting out new slips and the potting mix potatoes are putting out new slips all the time! I’ll also be sticking with the potting mix method from now on!

  • @nicolecoenen2726
    @nicolecoenen2726 3 года назад +2

    I totally agree the soil was the way to go. I had tons of slips. It looked like a forest. When they got too tall I just clipped them down to a lower leaf. I put mine, with roots even tiny ones, directly in one gal containers. I snipped the leaves in half so the energy of growing went into the roots. Watered well. They never wilted back. I have a dozen purple stokes and a dozen Japanese. I started a white variety later and it's about ready to plant the slips. Right now it's just a bit cool at night for them so the purple stokes, the ones I planted first, go out during the day and in at night. It's only been about a week since I planted the Japanese variety. I'll probably put them out next week as they are already beginning to push new leaves. Thank you for the helpful tips! 👍😁

    I did the soil method this year (2021). I carefully cut the slips off & rooted them in water if they had little or no roots; or in pots if they have some roots. BUT if you keep watering the potato, new slips keep growing. I got dozens of slips in succession from one potato. When I had enough slips, I just planted the whole potato.

  • @lisarasmussen3557
    @lisarasmussen3557 3 года назад +1

    I really appreciate all the good information you give. You really are more knowledgeable and thorough than most RUclips gardeners. But I do have some info to add to your experiments. I know you’re not claiming to be a scientist or anything, but your sample size is way too small, and there are some other things to consider. I grow a large amount of slips every year for myself and to share. The potting soil adds more expense and takes up a lot more space that I don’t have. In the past I have had a lot more potatoes go rotten in the potting soil. This year I did 10 potatoes in jars of water and 6 laying in potting soil. One SP in water has gone rotten and one in the potting soil has gone rotten. One SP slip in the soil is way ahead of the rest, but a couple of the sweet potatoes in the soil aren’t doing much. In the jars of water, a couple of potatoes are also not doing much, but most of them have a ton of slips starting. They are probably growing a little slower than the SP’s in the soil, but they are more consistent overall. Different potatoes just perform very differently, so that’s why I was pointing out that you need a much bigger sample size. Also, I was thinking of trying vermiculite, but I just ran out of energy this year. But I believe vermiculite would be better than perlite because it is supposed to absorb/hold in the moisture. Perlite is better for drainage (not absorbing), so the way you did it does not keep much moisture around the sweet potato. I really do love your videos, and I can tell that you really do care about helping people and getting them good information, so that’s why I felt okay about sharing my experiences with you. Keep up the good work! (P.S. I live in zone 4, so I just started mine on April 2. I can’t plant outside until the beginning of June, and I have to heat the soil with plastic for a couple of weeks before planting.)

    However many enjoyable salads with the leaves as with my Tortillas, as my Spinach had not grown last year, Sweet potato leave sure very nutritious, so although I LOVE sweet Potato , I went through the whole ritual of putting slips into jars roots forming etc then planting them into HUGE POTS (I have Spinach growing in my small patch of land that is only as big as a postage stamp..
    Anyway I am starting again growing slips and mine growing fine straight from just one end of a sweet potato.
    Enjoy leaves and freeze them you never know when you may enjoy putting them into a nice winter Stew or fry with garlic and lemon juice..

    I tried four organic sweet potatoes in the potting soil method, on heat mat, and ended up with only rotten potatoes, with no slips. Any thoughts?
    Had success last year when I just gave up waiting, and tossed them in the corner of a dark garage. Discovered slips growing from them about a month later. Maybe I tried too hard this year, with the premium potting soil, and the heat mat, and grow lights. Sometimes gardening doesn't make sense!

    I have slips! One is like 2ft long. I’ve left it growing since the others are various lengths and I’m not ready to put all of them in water. QUESTION Can the 2ft long slip be cut into 4 sections to root?

    Someone on facebook brought out growing cherry tomatoes on a trellis. I didn't know there was a difference in growing cherry tomatoes. How do you grow cherry tomatoes opposed to the big tomatoes. Can you make a video in the future?

    Can a few sweet potatoes be left in the ground to grow for next season. I have mild winters.

    Why could you not cut the potato near the new growth and plant the whole thing in the ground?

    I ordered some slips and they look horrible. I'm going to trim off the bottom leaves and then stick them in water as you did in this video. Any other advice?

    Can you plant them as is?(I've seen it on other channels) sprouts form where the leaves were?

    Is this sweet potato vine for flowers or eating? I’m looking for the plant for my flower baskets.

    Will just planting a sweet potato grow more? Do you have to do the slips?

    I did my sweet potato in soil and placed it in a South facing window. Oh my goodness, did I ever get a bunch and fast!

    My Sweet potatoes rotted in the soil and they were Organic too! Maybe I kept them too wet? I'm trying one more (my last one) and watering less.

    3:04 I put my slips in water after I get them off in a clean clear glass and every single one just rotted and died. What did I do wrong?
