Hi!
I grow Sweet potatoes every year, because i live in Southern,

Ontario, I
have to grow mine inside to get them started. I use a foil pie dish,

add the
potting soil, keep it moist and cover with clear wrap. When you see

the red
buds start to appear, remove wrap, and make sure you spray the soil

and
buds. I harden them off in Spring, and plant them in a large plot.

They grow
all over! In September, which is harvest time for us, I dig them up!.

From
one plant I got eleven sweet potatoes! Excellent crop! Each year

varies
though. weather can play a factor. I wish you luck, and I hope this

helps??

I love baked sweet potatoes. Is it hard to grow these? I have never
gron them before. I have grown regular potaos before. DO they grow

like
them? Into a bush that you pull up when they are ready to harvest?



I live in southern Kentucky
