Growing Sweet Potato (AKA Kumara) From Store Bought ~ Dig Deep
( °° 2nd video here: • Pt. 2: How To Grow Sweet Potato (AKA Kumar... °° )
OBJECTIVE:
Prepare soil for successful kumara growing; incl. details of creating ideal soil for a high yield from this plant.
Plant Kumara / Sweet Potato slips; our first of hopefully many staggered plantings.
Prepare "mother" kumara for 2nd and 3rd harvest of slips:. Experimental; interested to see if 2nd/3rd generation slips perform better/worse + any other notable happenings.
Test nature to see if I can grow these successfully before frosts are finished by being creative.
Ultimate objective: save money! Our family spend approx. $5-$10 per week on kumara; at an average of $7.50 that is $390 per year!
°° imagine what you'd save if you grew ALL of your vegetables °° this is my goal.
And as always:
Create something fun and magical for the kids.
Do it all as cheap or free as possible! In this case used 1 store bought kumara, and one tub that to date has been used as a kids bath, then as a compost tub, now a planted pot for sweet potatoes.
TIME: approx 15-30 minutes (with standard child interruptions) - without videoing this process would have taken less than 5 minutes..
Some patience required to wait for slips if you intend to plant them in water, though as stated in the video - you can plant them directly into the ground!
