Everything is moving into their final summer growing places now - and space is beginning to run out. We ordered sweet potato plants some time ago and they arrived in good condition but a little tender. Potted on they have had 2 weeks in the greenhouse and are now looking good. These will go in a side bed in the poly tunnel and will be given plenty of room just to get on with it and be watered on the automatic system daily.
We have only grown this once before in a pot and it was not a success. So hopefully it will be better this year and we will have plenty in the autumn.
Probably keep 3 for our eldest son who has just taken on his own allotment. We are delighted that he can follow in his parents footsteps and become a grower and show his 2 year old daughter things. Only problem being he has a bit of a phobia about worms. She may have to help daddy there.
