I think 3 months of growing season remaining, but now I'm getting nice tubers: https://i.imgur.com/a5ESld2_d.webp?maxwidth=640 But definitely, it's too early for harvest. Only 2-3 bigger tubers are present, the rest are either missing (only roots are present) or very small. I will try again after 2 ...

Some people used to "cure" them first, what do you think, does that really make any differennce?

Thanks. I guess Bangladesh is very warm country, so sweet potatoes grow very well there. In my case, it depends how hot weather is it. Now temperature is +22 C only and +13 night, but higher temperatures are expected again soon. Almost all plants are "all purple" species. They grow 0.5m de...

Must say that, this year I'm getting excellent, hot summer. Late, but much more hot so far. Optimal conditions for tropical plants. Definitely, tunnel is unnecesary

I just realized how much work will be required to harvest them all, well it won't be easy! I hope I will able to do that

No, it's completly different unrelated plant. They don't share any pests or diseases with potato. The name is similar, but they have nothing to do with potato. Sweet potato is bindweed family, the same as convolvulus, even flowers look almost the same. https://i.imgur.com/rRBOQnc.jpg New tubers are ...

Temperature: +34 °C. Current look:



500-600 kg tubers ecpected.

Well, possible you can feed them with something and it helps to get larger tubers. However, better to don't do that unless you really know what are you doing. And better don't feed than overfeed, especially with nitrogen.

As they grow fine so far, I don't want to bother with it.

I don't feed them at all. I think soil is not very rich there. I don't want to feed them unless really required, because there's a risk to get large leaves and no tubers. I don't know what to use to feed them also.

Very hot weather every day. 30 °C day / 20 °C at night. Forecasts are very optimisc too. Sweet pototo plants grows very fast, almost all available space has been taken:



How is yours?

I'm getting nice progress, look here:

I have a few ones from the same variety as yours in the garden and so far, they looks similar - small and they don't reaaly want to grow. My previous pics shows purple variety, which always grows faster. But also the same variety in a pot on the balcony grow like a crazy, climbing up: https://i.imgu...

Sure, you can share some pics. Mine are only outdoors, all of them. Night temperature.. I guess it's between +17 and +20 most the time in my case, but minimal value just before sunrise is 12-15.

Day temperatures are nice so far, 23-25 in the shadow, but sunny places are very hot.

Finally getting warm weather. They grow pretty fast, although old leaves created indoors are completly burned by sun uv radiation:





New leaves appear very fast. Not bad overall. How is yours?

So, after 3 weeks:









New leaves are there, so they are still alive. Waiting for hot summer.

In my location, spring is incredibly cold, especially May was more cold than usual. I hope weather is going to become more warm. It's almost June!
I'm really irritated so far, places where it should be cold are actually hot Siberia for example, every day +30, Russia - Moscow or Norway is also warm
