I planted sweet potatoes this year just to see how they would do in our Michigan weather. I didn't think that they would amount to much...but was I surprised to see how well they did! This is from two plants that I had in one of my raised beds. Mostly sandy soil that I had dug in the back of my property. I think that the nice soft loose soil may have helped. First time picking it was interesting to see how the tubers were straight down in a clump right in the center of the plant. Nice meal ! One of them is more that the wife and I can eat. These will be great this winter and I still have one more to dig before the ground freezes. I will have to plan on planting these again. I think I need more raised beds...humm
There is that darn slipper again. You seem to have a desire for it to sprout blossoms and create more. :-) The sweet potatoes look wonderful. Will be great at Thanksgiving. What time is dinner??? Hugs
