Our garden continues to surprise us.
Does anyone know what happened to cause this sweet potato to be like this when it was dug? All the sweet potatoes from one plant were like this, but worse. Never fear, though. The Husband was able to find these:
We have good luck with keeping sweet potatoes through the winter months, and this is only a portion of what we hope we will find as the rest of them are dug!
Thank you for reading. I really appreciate your comments.
Your garden has certainly rewarded you for all The Husband's hard work! I have no idea about those sweet potatoes, but I DO know that your good ones are REALLY good! Have a good day, Sister!
ReplyDeleteI love garden surprises Nellie! I'm also in awe of those sweet potatoes, something I have never tried growing before. You lucky girl!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing, Nellie...Happy Thursday!
Sweet potatoes are so nutritious and tasty are are a favorite of mine although I don't grow them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like your plant has been hit with Black Rot fungus called Ceratocestis. It's apparently a seed borne fungus.
I hope the other plants are healthy.
Hugs,

What a nice crop of sweet potatoes. I need to grow some next year, Yours look nice well except for the bad one. I hope you are feeling chipper today.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what would cause that. Looks like you got some good ones too though.
ReplyDeleteLove sweet potatoes.
We have about 20 pumpkins - some are orange but some are still green. We aren't sure when to take them off the vine.
beautiful potatoes, except the one with the big scabby part, no idea what would cause that, we don't have the climate this fa north for sweet potatoes,
ReplyDeleteLook at all that goodness! I need to come up there and let you feed me and fatten me up! LOL!

ReplyDeleteHi Nellie , I love surprises and your are just lovely . Your sweet potatoes is just beautiful , what a nice crop . Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI love sweet potatoes and they are so good for you. I must say that guy does have an unusual shape tho - somehow he most have gotten tangled up with something to bend him in half - maybe a root? Just a guess!
ReplyDeleteI need to buy sweet potatoes more often. They are such a treat.
