Growing AMAZING Sweet Potatoes!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2024
- Today we VLOG our day. We unloaded the truck after a trip to town for feed and hay. Then we relaxed by the pond. Danny used a disc hiller to create amazing rows for our sweet potatoes. We show how to harvest the slips and plant them. We, also, planted watermelons, pumpkins and tomatoes. This wasn't all we did, because someone has to cook, clean, unload the freeze dryer, reload the freeze dryer, work on ETSY and Edit. But this is a part of our day at Deep South Homestead.

Secrets to Growing AMAZING TOMATOES! th-cam.com/video/UOsivlgLiKA/w-d-xo.html
@Forrest Gump Either will do whatever you have handy so you don't have to spend a lot of money.
@@DeepSouthHomestead Except skinny wood stakes. Tried that I was putting a stick in cracked I went down on the other stick scraped the roof of my MOUTH, tonsils if I didn't break my fall the stick would of went down my throat very dangerous.
People like you folks don’t get enough credit and admiration from the world. I am a gardener myself. No livestock as of yet. But I can easily relate to and admire your channel. I just love to grow stuff. It’s in my blood. Growing up in the mid 80’s- mid 90’s (my childhood years), I was with my papa in the yard. Always planting stuff and tidying up a bit. He was just amazing. Total handyman. He could fix anything. I thought he was just the coolest man on earth. I still do and I’m 42 now. He is not here with me anymore, but I keep him close to my heart. He instilled in me something that I’m grateful for. I wish more people would spend more time planting stuff or having a sustainable mentality. Simple minded. I miss those days.
I believe you and Wanda qualify as a Master Gardeners!!! I so love the natural way of gardening! ♥️❣️🙏🏼❣️♥️
WOW. that sweet potato fork is such a smart idea. Your daddy taught you well.
Danny and Wanda, you sound like Me and my hubby Chip. when the weather makes things difficult to work outside, we go to town and do all our running. That swing by the pond looks like a perfect place to read your bible and pray.
How I love to get out growing fresh food. Especially with my dad.
Danny and Wanda, I just came upon this video in my feed today. Watching it I realized that if someone would download all of your videos that they would have great instructions on how to start their own family farm without having a background in farming. Both of you are wonderful presenters of a human library of knowledge. Again, thank you both!!! ML from a subscriber. Continuing to keep you and yours in prayer as the Lord places you upon my heart.
I always sit with a notebook (labeled Deep South) when I watch your videos. I learn something new each time. Will be heading out to the woods to find the perfect forked stick this afternoon 😊. Thank you both. God Bless!
This is an excellent idea!
Today was rather frustrating for me, I didn’t get some of the planting done that needed to be done TODAY. So I was ‘guided’ to your channel and began watching this video. It didn’t take but a few minutes for my ‘irritation’ to dissipate. I am now ready to pinch my hubby for not getting a hilling tiller! But I will redeem him when he helps me start the sweet potato slips! There’s something about watching the planting process that calms me. Thanks for the tip of planting carrots with tomatoes! I’ll surely try that! Be blessed and stay safe. By the way Wanda, I am giddy watching my seeds grow in my Green Stalk! Life is good!
That stick idea is pure genius!
Found it in the woods, priceless!
The stick idea has been used for many years here in the mts
Absolutely 👍❣️
Love Danny’s shirt.
What a beautiful yard! You have worked long and hard and your efforts have paid off. But when you care for and work the land the way that you and Wanda do the land gives you both back so much in return. I live on a five lane highway and the front of my house is about 6 feet from the high way so I might as well say that I don't have a front yard and I have a tiny back yard and there are no trees, no nature only the sounds of card and trucks going by day and night. Looking at your beautiful yard and listening to all of the farm animals is so real, so natural and so peaceful and it temporarily takes me away from all of the troubles of the world. I remember as a kid I loved when all of the vegetables in the garden were ready and ripe for the picking were the grapes on the vines, the apricots, pears and apples...when the pears were ripe we loved shaking the trees to get them to fall to the ground and the pears at the stores and markets are not even half as juicy and delicious as they were back in the days gone by. we gobbled up the vegetables as soon as we would pick them, same with the delicious ripe fruits....and no one ever thought of the fruits and vegetables having to be perfect in every way. Fast forwarding back to the present; the term flash drought reminds me of the old theory of the hole in the ozone layer. That always made me wonder and it did not make sense to me. I wondered "How could there be just one big gaping hole in the atmosphere when the atmosphere is in layers. Instead of a gaping wound wouldn't it make more sense to have a "thinning" that encircled the earth in one of the outermost layers? But what ever happened with that? Same now with the flash drought .... it reminds me of the last chapter in the Good Book, but I am not saying this is the end of the world, but it will soon come to pass that it will be an end to life as we knew it, life that we love and sometimes take for granted, but this is not the end of the world, not yet. There is still good in the world, there is still goodness and happiness in the world... Recently we had Covid-19, followed by the lockdown, now the long haulers, and we all survived and we bounced right back amid the crime that lately is in many places with the possibility of more unrest and violence because of the Roe/Wade.... In some places in the world there is little or no food for the people to eat. There are still disasters like on March 16, 2022, the earthquake in Japan Fukushima; magnitude 7.4....now billions of people are thought of as food insecure; ranging from moderate to severe....and lets not forget the flash drought...all of these things are distractions so we do not see what is coming and when we do see it it will be too late for most and it looks as though there is a light, very slight layer that already hit the fan...but as I continue to watch this video all of those things fade away and makes all of the fore mentioned seemed like an illusion; for a lack of better words. A lot of the fear I am starting to think is from watching too many youtube videos by those that seen to feed off of instilling fear in people. But like driving in the truck when it is raining, when we turn on the wipers we can see things more clearly. and we see what we try so hard to forget....they "they" are slowly destroying America to usher in their one world government...
I’m doing a deep south marathon today. Thanks Danny and Wanda.
There's always plenty to keep you busy on a farm.
Glad I got to see you pulling the slips from the cold frame.
Spring always brings busy days back to the homestead. The tips for today: buy what you can when you can and in bulk, use a forked stick to plant sweet potatoes, use a planting journal to determine when to harvest sweet potatoes, compare plants by planting near each other, stay busy if you want to get it done, and rest.
So much good information in one video! Well done!
My father-in-law, who grew up gardening in East TX loved yellow meated watermelon. He taught me to appreciate it. He was oldest kid in a big family, where if you didn't grow a big garden you didn't have anything but game to eat.
Beautiful & so peaceful every time, I watch yall together & always learn something New ..
Such great informative teachers , that truly care about their Friends / subscribers & pray for us ..
God bless you & all reading this .

Can't say how much this was invaluable to us this year in the garden!
Danny, just a suggestion from a fellow tractor owner (Kubota 3301L); take your pallets that I noticed in the background and place them in your truck next time so that you can put your hay bails on them as well as bags of potting soil and then use your forks to take easily take the pallets and product off your truck. I don't know about you, but it really saves this old retired man's back quite often! Keep the faith
Most of the time I do use pallets but this time I had to get a drum of feed and the bed isn't large enough for both.
I would love that hay too! With the chemicals on everything I can't believe that people can't make the connection with birth defects and other health concerns. I love your ponds!! I want to put in a couple of tiny ponds but I don't have springs so they will dry up before summer is over. So much good information!! Thank you so much!
Hi guys. I grew up on a 36 acre lake. My Daddy hated snakes and water turtles. Many adays he hate his rifle out, taking care of them. We swam daily in the warm weather, they never did bother us while swimming. Frog legs are good ! Be prepared for a little jumping while frying. Danny you'd have to let me sleep in till 6 or 6:30..lol. have a great day you two..
LoL that's to late for the heat in the deep south.
I love the forked stick planter. I broke my back last July, so I am doing intensive raised bed gardening this year. Bending down is the hardest thing for me to do right now.
Nice job Ms. Wanda proving that you have lot's of muscles. Thank you both
Thank you for reminding me that I need to keep a journal of when I planted and should harvest it
Good morning Wanda and Danny!
Thank you so much - it‘s fascinating to experience a day on your homestead and soak up your wisdom!
I GREATLY appreciate all of the time and energy you both pour into this community to share your wealth of knowledge. May Jesus bless you abundantly! Thanks again.
The funny thing is this was just part of our day.
Good morning That's 6 o'clock my roosters are crowing I have a hot cup of tea I watch you this morning You just plumb wore me out and ready for bed LOL 😆
Hope your books work for central florida. They are on my wish list!
Yes they do.
Just ordered 2 books from Etsy. I am excited to have these investments in my library to teach the grandkids and be passed down. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge of how to’s so that we may have a better success at producing more good food
Thanks Danny & Wanda for sharing! 💕from Ky.
Thank you to the two of you for all you share. I have learned so much. I am grateful I came across your channel a few months ago. Thanks Danny for the forked end branch idea. My back is applauding you! Bless you two.
I love watching potatoes plants grow!
Fountain of freedom! Fountain of youth! Keep moving and know what you're putting in your body, if you can! Love y'all and God bless.
I just love y'all! It's a good tired though. I love the way you have your land set up. I know it took YEARS. But, it's definitely something for people to strive for. By the way, in case any of you are still sticking your sweet potatoes in water....think again. Danny knows what he's talking about with sweet potato slips. Game changer!!
I absolutely love that you are enjoying the fruits of your labour. The lake is gorgeous! Enjoy 💕
Danny, you've got it sussed, Wanda's doing all the work. 👍😆
I learn something each time I watch your video. Thank you and Wanda love y’all
The Pond looks amazing, nice and full. Good idea buying feed in bulk. Awesome forked stick. I like that. Nice easy planting. Rest well and God bless!
My Grand-dad showed me the "stick" trick. He was a migrant farm hand for a while.
Hey Danny and Wanda I'm so sorry I've been so busy I keep missing yalls videos so I've been just letting them play when I'm in bed or working God bless 🙌
Like the shirt Danny👨🌾👩🌾
That's the best worded shirt I've seen yet
Amen!
Great video. Peas and onions are up but potatoes, not yet, central KY. God Bless, stay safe.
It'll be soon! I'm in SE KY and my potatoes started popping up this week and look perfect. 👍
@@kristindisney5800 Great!
Good morning Danny and Wanda it’s going to be another beautiful day .
Good morning from KY! 🌞
Your fathers method for growing sweet potato slips worked well for me. First row in on April 12 before the rain here. Thanks
You guys are great. I don’t know how you keep going. I m tired just watching you lol.
Morning Y’all , I knew I would learn something this morning, thank you for sharing your knowledge about gardening, and by the way.. Loved Porch Time.. just had no words on what this world had become
I WILL be ordering one of your sweet potato manuals. I appreciate all you do. Stay safe and God bless.
I like these type of vlog videos.
the pond is just so beautiful and looks so peaceful
That stick is pure genius!
Love watching you guys. Such a wonderful couple.
Was going to say about the bullfrogs that you can use fish jigs to catch them. It is fun to watch Cole and Jays channel going bullfrog jigging. 😉
Thank you Danny for sharing what that Grasson does.
your feed store should learn that there's a growing community of homesteaders now days who are looking for hay not Sprayed! Luckily I talked to my hay man and asked him to Stop spraying the hay I buy. . Least some of the fields that I get mine from. And Other people told him they wanted the clean hay too. We told him horses & cows actually like to eat some weeds. My horses will eat leaves off the trees. Lol.
Plus I told him what Grasson does to the plants. 👍
That is one tired Mr. King there at the end, awesome day for you guys. Y’all inspire thousands including myself. Thank you both for sharing your life. God is still in control and I’m in prayer with you to remove evil leaders and hatred for our country. Be removed in Jesus name amen
Love growing sweet potatoes ever since I read your sweet potato manual and watched your videos.
This video is jam-packed with information. I know you're tired, I'm tired just watching you. But, I think it's your Teamwork that makes it look easy. It's always easier to do the things you love with your spouse. I miss those days. Your hard work is really paying off. The place looks pretty and that Lake is awesome. Frog legs are best eaten blind-folded LOL. My garden is "Cadillacin" this year thanks to your videos. I still cringe when you bring out that dang blue Tiller. LOL Maybe someday your worms will tell you no need to till. but I understand... until then. Have to go out and find me a crook-neck stick now. Thanks for sharing. May the hand of our Lord be upon the both of you.
Today is Wednesday the 14th and it rained most of last night and more coming until late Friday night. BUT Sun. and Mon. morning are going to be 38°. I can’t remember mid April dropping down that low. It’s looking like Oklahoma might actually have a spring this year. God bless you and know you are both in our prayers.
Y’all are just too precious!! Love your advice!!
Good morning Deep South and family. Nice to see some phisical muscle workout. Greetings from Jamaica 🇯🇲
So nice to see your daddy's tool and you caring on the tradition. Awesome.
No pumpkin contest fir me. Still in the 20°/30°s here in Idaho. Good luck.
Loved seeing y'all relaxin at the pound. Blessings for Wanda and Danny
Thank you for sharing that "Forked Stick" idea with us, in going to make both my sons and myself one of those bad boys.
Thank you again for all the tips. Using those sweet potato tips, I grew mine in the ground under my green house tables (zones 3 & 4).
I like the fork-ed stick
Yep. Me too. Hardware stores and feed stores are most of my going to town.
Y’all are awesome! Thank you for sharing your know how, expertise, and your valuable time. I’ve learnt so very much from y’all, and am looking forward to learning lots more.
God Bless.
Prayers for You and the animals
Everything looks beautiful I cant put my pumpkin in the ground until it stops all this rain. Just got 3 inches today.
Hello Dear Friend! Very amazing! Have a great day! 👍 30
Hey yall that was a productive day, hoping to b as productive today as you 2 were thanks😁👍❤
You both remind me of my husband and me... always working so hard on the homestead :0)
Oh we used to go frog gigging and frog legs are so good. The turtles neck is the best meat on a turtle. Y’all don’t work too hard.
You two are amazing and I thoroughly enjoy your videos ❣️ Thank you so much for sharing.
Blessings from a non-compliant great grammie in Michigan ❣️
Good Morning Mr. Danny And Mrs Wanda..
Great video guys, Everything is Looking Beautiful As Always,God Bless
That good to know. Feed gets expensive buying in bags.
The pumpkin challenge sounds fun! I wish you the best!
Our feed store don’t even buy bales of hay, I needed it for my dogs during the freeze, I ended up bringing them in the house and they were so thankful and I was released
New to gardening. Watching your videos is very informative.
Most people have been so dumbed down and brainwashed ...they will stand on the banks of a river and thrist to death if walmart runs out of bottles of recycled sewage water.
Good morning Mr. Danny and Ms. Wanda!!🌼🌞
Love y’all’s team work!
You guys are amazing! Thank you for the education on this!
Great video!!! Thank you
He’s old school that’s why his place is so productive up before the roosters keep goin till the sun goes down and more. Respect ✊
Thank you
Really like the stick method
Your pond looks so peaceful. Cant wait to get to ours. We need to clean it up quite a bit but looking forward to that too, minus the snappin turtles, lol.
Inspirational! I love super productive days too. 💚
I loved that potato fork. Thank you for the interesting video on pulling sweet potato starts.
Good Morning Danny.and Wanda. The pond look so good
Our last freeze/frost date is April 20th NW Oklahoma..2 more nites in the 20's coming...I'm itching to get planting!! Love the stick idea!
Great ideas! Will definitely check out your book on growing sweet potatoes.
After watching you plant sweet potatoes last year I do it the same way this year. I have over 100 planted
You gotta grab those frogs with your hands!!! That’s how we do it here in Missouri!!! Pond looks awesome!!!
Nice looking sweet potato slips
Thanks for a Great Video
Good morning! We just planted our potatoes also! Can’t wait for everything to start growing! Have a great day!
I used to float out in the water and hang a treble hook lure on a long cane pole to catch frogs. If you use the fuzzy ones the frogs thinks it's an insect and grab it. Turtle is good eating too.
