What's up hillbillies today. I'm going to showing you how to grow your all superintended. I was in a five-gallon bucket.
It's an extremely fast process of sitting here and what I'm trying to grow anything and sweet potato that I had, which is in natural light and just starting to sprout one day. That got me on the idea of growing sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, and potatoes. You can continuously eat. They're a great source of food.
This is a very easy way to grow up and because they're a five-gallon bucket and you could bring some and glow them through the winter time. So, you got this called the street fit of slip. Every single node and joint will actually produce a sweet potato vine.
Super simple guys, again in under five minutes, that was all the labor that was required to actually get you and your family, a bountiful harvest of sweet piddle. We'll show you what that looks like when we harvest them here in a few months until that guys like subscribe, check out the other stuff and we'll see you next time.

I did planted sweet potato last yr. During winter I put them indoor but the root rice aphids came in too with them or with other plants from outside and keep.sprsying them with all kinds of spray neem oil with soap water solution, but doesn't work. Their population decrease but I still see them around... I tried amonia bleach also 3 % hydrogen peroxide. Their population become lesser and lesser. I hope sooner or.later they are gone. Can't wait for the summer to bring them.out to remove the flying aphids gin the house. They attacked all my plant, kalamansi, snake plants they live inside the soil.., oregano... my sweet potato died too due to rice root aphids..

You can plant extra sweet potatoes next to the chicken coop. The chickens fertilize the sweet potatoes, and you can feed the greens to the chickens as they grow. Then at the end of the year you harvest the sweet potatoes and the chicken meat.

The sweet potatoes are great! Being that you're in London and have access to tons of foreign markets, you make be able to find TONS of potatoes that aren't available here. You could grow like 20 different kinds and see what works/tastes best for your climate! FYI, sweet potatoes are tropical only plants, so the first frost WILL kill them. Keep an eye if you're planning on growing through winter.

I am not sure about that specific product as I have no direct experience with it. HOWEVER, I know usually the growing tower kind of systems usually are tough for root vegetables to grow. I know some soil based towers you can get carrots and radishes, but aquaponics/aeroponics style systems often produces really small roots. (which is the parts we want to eat). I know there are tons of patio gardeners using these container pots with success. I helped my friend setup his garden as he has limited space. amzn.to/3qTKfNP. For watering you can try these globes. Since you're in a desert environment, they get water directly to the roots where it's needed, w/o drying out. Its also easy to see if/when you need to rewater. amzn.to/3LslbqL

thanks for sharing this great video............I've been doing this for the past year and am generating tons of vines I've been harvesting to add to dishes all the time. They seem to overwinter fine down here in Zone 8b. Sweet potatoes down here can serve as a survival crop.

I'm zone 6. bought some sweet potatoes at safeway. I wanted them on hand. they had to be fairly old as they produced vines very quick. but it's gonna be cold here in a few weeks so I'll probably need a bucket grow.

C Maggie, you'll have to let me know how they turn out! Hopefully you can grow them inside by the window or something! Today a friend and I were just discussing using 9 buckets, Planting 3 at a time, after some growth, going to try to grow 3 more after 1 month, then another 3 after than. 1 Month later, the first 3 buckets should have yeilded 15-30 sweet potatos to last a month. Then replant. Not sure if it'll work, but then we'd always have one set of 3 buckets coming into harvest.

If you have the ability to dig swales outside, contour the land to start holding water when it does rain and it can soak in. If it's possilbe to divert AC unit condensation, or grey water from a sink, those can be used to water raised beds. Most important part is keeping everything moist. if you can spend $20-50 on tubes and pipes, you could probably make something that self waters.

You're probably thinking of cassava; I believe there are some obscure species of yam that are poisonous but not most. Since sweet potato are often sloppily called yams in North America and taro are sometimes sloppily called yams in some places, maybe in some places they call cassava yams, but true yams are distinct from all of them.

You can usually find hay or straw pretty cheap around you, even in cities. Straw especially since it's a waste product.
