Sweet Potato Young Plants Collection

Sweet potatoes like it hot, they crop best when kept at temperatures between 20 and 27°C (70 to 80°F). So if you’re growing outside, start by warming the soil now with a covering of black polythene and then planting through holes in the plastic when you receive the plants. We recommend covering the plants with a cloche or fleece as the extra heat will make a real difference. If you are growing in a greenhouse or polytunnel, plant in containers or directly into beds and train the foliage up canes or string. They prefer well drained soil and will need regular watering and feeding, harvest in late autumn when the leaves have turned yellow and died back.
