As a huge sweet potato fan, I attempted with today's video to give some context to how to harvest sweet potatoes, when to harvest sweet potatoes, and how to cure them.

Questions answered: When do I harvest sweet potatoes? How do I cure sweet potatoes? How do I market sweet potatoes? What if my sweet potatoes got frosted? Do I need to dig my sweet potatoes? Do I have to cure my sweet potatoes.

This is my first year growing sweet potatoes. I'm glad I watched this video to know how to cure them. Thanks Dude!

Love your direct information approach. Because you were so direct, I stuck around for the rest of the video and subscribed. Thanks for being straightforward!

:57 - Yep! That right there! I watched several videos JUST to find out when I should harvest my sweet potatoes and ALL of them took forever to NEVER just get to the point! They all had something like "...when to harvest..." in the title, but never explained WHEN to ACTUALLY HARVEST! Thank you sir! I liked, subscribed, and watched the rest of the video!

Jeeez I appreciate your videos so much. They're purely informational and entertaining without lecturing or clickbait. Thanks as always!

It's so heartening to see how much confidence you have now as opposed to the darker times of the video.

I just pulled mine not really knowing when I should. Could have left them in for at least 2 more weeks. Oh well. First time grower. Now I know for next year. Thank You!

refreshing to see the real struggle and technicalities that goes into bringing produce to market vs. to instagram feed.

After watching a recent sweet potato video of yours I realized mine have been in the ground a long time. Yep, rugby it is. Oh well, figure I'll go back into the archive for more information. You were so cute, what happened man

Great vid. First time viewer of your channel but hit the subscribe button. No nonsense narrative with useful info. Happy harvesting friend.

Yeah, the tar thing! You're the first person to even mention it. I was surprised to find my hands and arms covered in spots of a tar-like substance yesterday. Thank you for normalizing sweet potato tar.

I like your humor & style. "I know they're delicious they're sweet potatoes." 😄 The video was also educational, thanks! 👍🏼

Thanks for all the really helpful information here. This is my first time growing sweet potatoes. The ones I could see and feel seemed kind of small so I decided to let them keep growing. Was worried I'd left them too long, so it's reassuring to know I can wait until frost. These are for home use, so the bigger the better. Curing them in cool dry weather is going to be a challenge.

I live in Vermont. I don’t get 120 days. I’m trying to grow them this year. I rarely get to 90 degrees here. I guess to cure them I will put them in a plastic bin,on a heat mat and a container of water in the middle.
