One sweet potato plant was dug up. My first attempt at growing this cultivar. There are eight plants and the remainder will be left in the ground until just before the arrival of frost in about three weeks or less. Only one reasonably sized potato was obtained.

Six strong rooted sweet potato plants were placed in the outdoor garden. The planting area was modified with about 40 liters of mason sand and worked into the underlying soil.

Potato slips have roots after four days and were planted into soil in gallon pots, and placed in the greenhouse. The plants were watered from the bottom. They will be transplanted in outdoor garden about the end of May.
