My sweet potatoes have about 30 days left to harvest, I have them in 50 gallon grow bags with my own soil blend that I created from scratch. I am growing Beauregard and O'Henry. Some places in southern California do support growing sweet potatoes but only southern california. So I grow them.

[@tanakahomestead8820]

Very good! It sounds like we planted around the same time, because I have about 30 days left to harvest my sweet potatoes also! Growing your own veggies is very rewarding. Nothing beats those delicious sweet potatoes though! I grew Beauregard in the past, as well as Centennial. I really like the Georgia Jets though:). Thank you for sharing. Happy gardening!

I hate covington everyone is trying to replace beauregard with it the issue is beauregard is easier to grow more disease resistant and it produces larger potatoes as well no reason to grow anything else except for personal preference. @@tanakahomestead8820

Hello, any particular time of year to plant the slips? I live in Texas, FWIW...gets hot early here.

[@tanakahomestead8820]

I usually get them in the ground by May and I live in central Florida. They like that hot soil!

What size are the grow bags?

[@tanakahomestead8820]
