Harvesting Sweet Potatoes in 15 Gallon Grow Bags... How Big Are They?!😳

#farming #agriculture

Harvesting sweet potatoes that were grown in 15 gallon grow bags! Did not get quite the harvest as I expected! My opinion is the grow bags were not the problem...it was the soil I used. Sweet potatoes really don't need a lot of nutrients, but they DO NEED Loose Soil. The soil in the bags got compacted. I recommend a soil mixture of 50% potting soil, 25% Peat Moss and 25% course sand (cheaper) or Perlite (Better). I knew this...but tried using what I had (top soil and potting soil). My harvest would have been much better had used the correct soil.
ALL I CAN SAY... is Learn From My Mistakes 😆
