| Sweet potatoes still flowering on day of harvest |
Well, it was a beautiful weekend with great days to harvest sweet potatoes. They look good-- many gigantic! Even more pleasing is the pest that plagued the fingerling potatoes is less evident on the sweet potatoes.

Saturday's work was harvesting 1/2 the bed. Now onto Sunday's work to finish up.

Sweet potatoes like sandy soil. Thank goodness for me that they grew well in compacted soil. In growing guides, it was suggested to play with the spacing of the plants. Those that I spaced closer together went deeper.

All and all growing these was a delightful surprise.
