Another tips and tricks video for you today covering tips and spacing for potatoes and sweet potatoes in your Mittleider garden. I show everything in grow boxes, but you can absolutely grow both in your own soil.
Sweet potatoes are grown in 2 rows with a spacing of 12 inches. They are grown from slips, see the video in the link below for how we start our own slips from a previously harvested sweet potato. Also, do not forget that the sweet potato leaves are edible and considered a secondary edible.
Potatoes are grown in 2 rows with 8 inches of space.

I watched a Mittleider gardener in Ohio. He uses a Refractometer to show that his plants not only look good, but have the minerals in them. Have you ever thought about using one?
I guess you used the Weekly feed to fertilize ?
Can you do an update on the leaf cutter bees. What you have observed and if you are still using them
Great information. 😎
