Thankyou for this great explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
Although I live in Southern California, it hasn't been very sunny or warm lately and I was worried about curing my sweet potatoes when I harvest them next month. This video is so informative!! Thank You!!!
I'm so glad! ❤️ Happy harvest! :)
Thank you for this easy to understand video. We live in the north, and I will use the #3 method you've described, plus wrap them in newspaper after the 2 week curing process.
My pleasure! Enjoy your sweet potatoes. :)
Thank you for the great information. I'm in the Phoenix area in AZ and it is HOT. I'm about 2 weeks from harvesting my sweet potatoes. We are steadily between 108° and 118° outside. Inside, about 75°. Do you think I should use the bag method or plastic storage container in the garage, which is about 95°? Not sure about the humidity.
I’d use a bag. Important thing is to check them often, especially early on, to ensure they’re not staying too moist and developing mold.
I love how you explain all this! I am growing my third attempt at sweet potatoes and looking forward to getting to cure them! Thanks so much!
Fun! My pleasure. ❤️
Very informative video - and now the curing process does not seem so difficult after all 😊. Going to have my first try at growing sweet potatoes (I live in South Africa and I think our warm climate will be ideal for curing them) Thank you
Warm climates are wonderful for sweet potatoes. Have fun! :)
Never knew had to cure sweet potatoes, thanks again for valuable information. Those are some nice looking taters!
We moved to a very high humidity area. It rains so much here (6m per year) and even when the sun shines in summer we have 80%-100% humidity! It takes until mid summer to warm up enough to grow so our season is short.
I tried growing sweet potatoes last season and wasn’t very successful. I’m having to learn just about from scratch!
Wow, that is a lot of rain! Learning new land is hard, but you'll get it!
How do you know when to harvest the potatoes? My vines are starting to die from the heat so I was thinking of harvesting soon. This is my first time growing and harvesting sweet potatoes and I'm not sure how to do everything
Vines dying back is a sign that they’re ready to harvest? The best thing to do is dig up just one and see if you’re happy with the size of it. If not, let them stay in a little longer.
Sweet potatoes take roughly 100-120 days to fully mature. That timeframe can help you determine if the vine are dying back because it’s harvest time or because of environmental conditions.
Dug mine today...boatload of them.
Congrats! Sweet potatoes are so fun to harvest. :)
What if it is 70s and 80s during the day but 50s at night? I am about to get mine out of the ground this week.
50s is a little too low. Can you lay them out in a way that is easy to transport them so you can bring inside at night? Perhaps with a tarp like I did here?
@@foodprepguide Yes, I think that is a good Idea. We don't have AC on much now, so it stays around 70 inside.I just won't open windows, so it stays warm. I do have a sunny window in my laundry room, but,if it gets mid 70s inside, we cool things off. Starting to wish I had pulled them 2 weeks ago. They are murasaki, so maybe they will be fine, since they don't mind cooler weather.
