This is one of the 2 bins of sweetpotatoes and they seem to be coming on nicely -Im going to put a few canes in soon as the foliage is supposed to be quite vigerous -so by training it up something it should keep it out of the way :-)We nipped out for the last of the compost after hubby finished work, and I sat today and worked out what containers I have left and what plants still to be potted on -so tomorrow if the weather allows Im planning on getting everything finished off -can't believe I have about done -well except for the things like more carrots etc that will be going on all season. Mind soon we will be onto the frantic nipping out, fastening in and pest control lol

They look great! I wish I could grow sweet potatoes, I can barely grow normal tatties lol. Hope you are well and the weather holds out for you xx
Hi Di
So far this year Im only claiming to be growing sweet potato "foliage" lol
I did them last year but I had to rush back to the UK for 3 weeks in the middle of summer and the neighbour who agreed to water things -didn't ... so they didn't get to swell -I pulled them from the crate and they were like carrots lol -but there were loads of them -so pinkies crossed for a result this year...
Its a b*gger I can grow things like that, that some folks have trouble with but I can't grow beetroot for toffe lol -Im trying again this year and so far things have got off to a better start..
