![Turn ONE Sweet Potato Into 100 LBS Of Sweet Potatoes By Growing SWEET POTATO SLIPS! [Complete Guide]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0igp5IzO21g/mqdefault.jpg)
I love that you watch Hollis and Nancy!! I have learned so much from their videos!
I have had my sweet potatoes in water for a couple months and I’ve pulled off over 100 slips from them and still coming!!😂
Us too!
My favorite sweet potato recipe is Senator Russell’s Sweet Potato Casserole. We always have this for Thanksgiving, Christmas, new years and goes well with turnips and collards.
3 1/2 cups sweet potatoes
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup milk
1/4 butter, softened
Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/4 butter, melted
1 cup chopped pecans
PREPARATION
Bake potatoes at 450 degrees for one hour. Scoop potatoe from jacket. Combine potatoes, sugar, eggs, vanilla, milk and butter. Place in large casserole. For the topping: Combine brown sugar, flour, butter and pecans. Place on top of potatoes in casserole. Cover casserole. Can be prepared a day ahead to this point. Bake covered at 275 degrees for approximately 50 minutes. Uncover for last 10 minutes of cooking.
To answer your ;question a slip comes off the potato and a draw is a section off the slip and put in water to root; At least that is what I was taught by a farmer in Tennessee. He was a farmer by trade. He passed away at the age of 95 and farmed all his life. Put my sweet potatoes in yesterday in a raised bed. Our last frost was the first of this month here in Leo, Indiana. We are about 10 minutes north of Fort Wayne. We are in zone 6a. Love the flowers and your squash. Gorgeous!!!
I’m loving sweet potatoes as fries like Mama Hoss, the Old Goat loves them too,that’s why he’s hiding amongst them behind her.😊
Love the Sunflowers Shiela❤️
Absolutely love yall ,
I received yalls Sweet potato slips , getting prepared to plant them here in
Montgomery County, Texas.

God bless you all
Mrs josette
Montgomery County, Texas 🙏
Sounds great!
The ole goat...Behind Miss Sheila in the sweet potatoes! My favorite way to use sweet potatoes is sweet potato souffle 🍠! Grandkids love the sweet potato fries..
Old Goat is in the basket behing Mama in the Sweet Potatoes ❤
Thank you for all your videos. I grow orleans sweet potato slips I purchased online. I like that they are small and can be a single serving for one person. I also grew slips from a store bought sweet potato. I am in New England 6b. I will always grow sweet potatoes from now on. I purchased 15 gallon, plastic grow bags from a "grow" store. I fill it with my homemade compost. I plant 2 slips per bag. This is my last crop to be harvested. I turn the bag out on my rasied beds, then harvest and spread the compost. You are so right, they are a very sustainable vegetable to grow! I love them roasted in my air fryer with butter salt and pepper with a dash of cinnamon.
Thanks Melissa
Mr. Hoss, you can grow sweet potatoes on a trellis. Works great! You spotlighted my garden way back like 6-8 months ago and commented on how I was growing them in a 55 Gallon barrel and climbing up and over my arch. Pest pressure was zero on those puppies, it was amazing. Now I did line that barrel with woven weave for protection from drying out and drilled holes in the sides for more oxygen. Grew so many we are still eating them today. Give it a try my friend, works great and grandkids had a blast searching for hidden potatoes in the barrel at harvest.
I still have some sweet potatoes from last year. I just put a few slips in water a few days ago. Since hubby doesn't like them, I don't need too many. I love them with butter, brown sugar, a touch of lemon juice, covered with marshmallows. I see old goat behind Greg, hiding in the square white planter, in the greenery. We have lots of birds in our garden 😮.
It’s Saturday and I’m just now getting to watch this week’s show-been busy getting dirty. Sweet potatoes in 15 gallon grow pouches do well for me -easy. My favorite is the white variety because it can be used so many different ways to give a sweet and salty contrast-yum. Old goat is on the shelf behind the vase of sunflowers nestled in next to a sweet potato. Favorite way to fix sweet potatoes is french fried with ketchup.
My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is anyway you can cook them. One of my favorite potatoes. Growing some this year for the first time ever. Great tips in this show. I needed them
Thanks for sharing alternatives to flat gardening!
Favorite way to eat sweet potatoes: soufflé!
Old Goat spotted: in metal basket on sweet potato behind Mama Hoss 😁
That monterey package is awesome yall. It helped me alot. And the people at Hoss Tools are the best. Thanks again Mr Greg and Mama Hoss.
Sweet potato casserole is my favorite way to have sweet potatoes. It is a favorite for holiday meals. I also enjoy baked sweet potatoes.
I just got my hoss seed order yesterday and I splurged and got the 4 tubs … I was excited when I got my package … thank you
Thanks for the sweet potato tips; I've never grown them, but you're making a convincing case for giving them a try! I love sweet potato chips--either sliced thin on a v-slicer or run through the spiralizer on a thin setting for sweet potato curly chips, then deep fried. I think Old Goat is hiding on the bottom shelf on Sheila's side; he was tough to find this week!
Also, I was a Monterey giveaway winner a few weeks ago (I'm continuing to answer the weekly questions because they're fun), and the prize is much-appreciated! It was packaged well, and the products are great. I have already used the horticultural oil to spray my indoor plants and the yellow sticky traps to capture any fungus gnats that survived. It worked wonderfully on my plant starts, and even with the grow lights so close to the plants, not a single plant was damaged. Thank you (and Monterey) for such a generous and very useful giveaway!
Thanks Lucinda
I just planted my Georgia Jets i purchased from you today in the rain here in South Carolina zone 8a. Thank you for all the products you sale.
Momma Hoss your flowers are beautiful. The old goat is hiding over your shoulder with the sweet potatoes and flowers sneaky. Have a blessed week 🙏❤️
I love it roasted with honey butter!
Always great info from you two. Never to old to learn and that old goat behind Ms. Sheila bottom shelf
I love my GreenStalks. I have 4 of them. The leaf keeps us in greens all winter. I can grow carrots easily in them. I use my original Greenstalk out front for micro tomatoes for my Mom. I am growing in the back yard of a city lot, the GreenStalk gives me the ability to grow more in the tiny space I have. I also have 8 raised beds in the back yard. I love my seeds from Hoss. My sweet potatoes came in last week, and I put them in a bed I made out of a recalled crib, hardware cloth, and weed barrier to line it. I let the vines climb a willow panel. The beauty of growing them in the raised crib is I can water them from the sides. I grow potatoes in burlap bags.
That old goat is chillin' on/in that basket of sweet potatoes, on the bottom shelf, behind Momma Hoss.
My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is cooked, peeled and served with an orange raisin sauce. Yum.
I love candied sweet potatoes with lots of sugar and butter with a little orange juice. Old goat sneaky this week. Took a while but I’m pretty sure he’s hiding in the sweet potatoes behind Mama❤
Sweet potato pie is my most favorite way to eat sweet potatoes! So good.
Sweet potato mashed and in a pie is my favorite 🥧. The old goat is hiding on the bottom shelf behind MaMa Hoss in the vegetables.
Thank you, I learn so much from you both. 🌸❤️🌸
I ordered my sweet potatoes from y’all and I have been following the advice you gave me on how to fertilize them. These things looks so good they are taken off.
Sweet potato soufflé is the best! Mama Hoss I would love to see a tour of your raised bed garden to see what you have growing! Thank you both for all the great info you pass on!
I love sweet potatoes roasted with onion and carrots!! I think the old goat is in the potatoes on the right behind momma Hoss.
I received my sweet potato slips two weeks ago and they are looking good. My favorite way to consume sweet potatoes is baking them then adding lots of butter and cinnamon. This is so good, sometimes I consider it my dessert.
My husband and I enjoy sweet potatoes in the frying pan with olive oil, peppers and onions. Yummy...
🥔🥔
I love sweet potatoes cut into fries, coated in olive oil with some Greek seasoning and fried in the air fryer. Great show tonight! Thanks!
Grandma's sweet potato pie recipe! So yummy.
Hi from Stan and Anita Baldwin Huntsville Al.
The Old Goat is behind Mama Hoss in sweet potatoes.
Great Video as always, tried sweet potatoes for the first time last year. I had some left over and currently growing my own slips, I am on the border of 7a 6b. Cant wait to try growing them again with your tips. Old goat was hiding this week, He is in the basket of sweet potatoes on the bottom shelf. I loved some candied sweet potatoes, nothing better.
The old goat is behind Mama Hoss in the basket of sweet potatoes. My favorite way to make sweet potatoes is oven baked sweet potato fries.
Absolutely love sweet potato French fries. With a honey mustard sauce. Yum yum. Think I’ll go fix some.
Planted some of my sweet potato slips today. Have to wait to plant the rest until my potatoes come out. I grow them in a raise bed and they do great. Old goat is on Mama Hoss in the basket by the sweet potatoes.
Great information here. Thanks Mr. Hoss. I got my slips from you all. They are doing great so far. Keeping them alive in some moist soil until I get them in the garden.
I've not had much luck with sweet potates, but I usually like mine baked with toppings or in a casserole. Super food there!
I love to make sweet potato pies, candid potato yams. Enjoyed the sweet potato content and I will definitely try one of those tips soon.
Favorite way to eat sweet taters is souffle/casserole, but it's really however I'm eating them at the time! I love them! Thanks to Monterey for sponsoring that great giveaway package! Great show, as always! Thanks! Ol Goat is getting him some sweet taters behind Mama Hoss on the bottom shelf! Tough this week! You're right about that phosphorous, Greg! I'll pump a 55 gal. drum of lake water, which we fertilize, and water with it a few times before the vines get too thick. Lake fertilizer, as you know, is LOADED in P! I didn't grow any last year, and you've about talked me into getting a bundle from y'all!
Baked sweet potatoes are the best with butter and cinnamon!! The old goat is hiding out in the sweet potatoes behind Shelia. The flowers are so beautiful!!
Enjoying your videos I love the Okinawa sweet potato it’s sweet and delicious flavor happy growing

Old goat in the sweet potatoes behind Mama Hoss. And I love sweet potatoes anyway they are fixed but one of my favorites is sweet potato pie.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Some good stuff!
Hey guys love your show , tonight the old goat is behind Sheila on the bottom shelf behind the sweet potatoes.
I received your slips from you guys . Glad I listen to your show on sweet potato slips and don’t worry about the way they looked. Planted 75 slips they look bad thought I was too late getting them in. But 10 days later they are all putting on leaves and are starting to look good.
Sprayed some Monterey today. Baked or soufflé. First time growing them this year. Scottie White, Faulkville GA
Mama Hoss the flowers are beautiful. The old goat is in the sweet potatoes.
Old goat by the sweet potatoes and flowers in the basket,behind Moma Hoss on the third shelf.
I love sweet tater leaves in a salad with hot bacon honey mustard dressing. old goat is in the basket with the flowers on the bottom shelf. Pretty flowers!
I am new to growing sweet potatoes. My husband loves them baked with lots of butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. I did not know the leaves were edible. I look forward to trying them in a salad. I ordered the Georgia Jet last week from you. They should arrive any day now.
I love Sweet potato casserole!
I love sweet potatoes as a soufflé. I am growing Covington and Beauregard both!
I just yalls wealth of knowledge as well as listening to it!
My favorite way for sweet potato is simply roasted! Soft on the inside and crispy on the out! Num num!
Unfortunately, I just don't see old goat!
Thanks for the chance ❤
I like Aunt May's sweet potato scones. They are amazing with butter and honey drizzled on them.
I enjoy sweet potatoes both in pie and souffle. Enjoyed the show
I love sweet potatoes fried in any shape and especially fried chips.
Sweet taters are great. Great greens and then wonderful potatoes in the fall! Old goat is behind Mrs. Hoss in the sweet potatoes!
I have to try sweet potato souffle!
I love,love baked sweet potatoes and sweet potatoe souffle with peacans and brown sugar on top yummy 😋
So good!
My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is just baked with cinnamon, sugar, and butter. Yum!
I love sweet potatoes cooked anyway. My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is candied.
Here in SE Florida zone 10, Sweet Potatoes were absolutely by far, the best crop i had. The dogs love the leaves, to the point that i had actually had to stop them from time to time. Beauregard was the variety. ❤
Baked and pies, candied for holidays.
Sweet potatoes - we eat a LOT roasted, I'm a big fan of the Sunday roast with roasted vegetables! I also like adding it into pumpkin/squash soup to add some extra deliciousness! Hubby loves it as sweet potato casserole (not my fav, so it's his job to make!).
I love sweet potatoes, particularly as pie. The old Goat is on the first shelf with the vegetables
I started grow SP in containers last year up a hog trellis!
this year Im using hog panels over my compost bin and over my gate into container garden. I actually use the leaves to feed my rabbits as well, which are my main nitrogen solution for my bin.I was extremely impressed.this years slips are from a couple of last years SP. win win win!
I put my slips out yesterday and for the first time we will be trying the greens
I remember as a child on my Grannies farm, (SW Oklahoma)..she planted about an acre of sweet potatoes every year...many people came to dig their own. They were always a favorite, but don't know what variety.
She also had at least an acre of Black eyed peas for people to pick.
Always wonderful 😊
I just ordered some of them Covington, thanks for the advice mr. Hoss 😊
Baked sweet potato wedges rubbed with vegetable oil with grated Parmesan cheese, garlic and onion powder and a bit of cayenne pepper and oregano. Yum
I love sweet potato pies and sweet potato souffle with marshmallows and pecans on top both eaten warm.
Dang the old goat is getting sneaky and shy again. Did find him peeking out from behind the sweet potatoes behind Mama Hoss. As for the Monterey entry this week - Sweet potato souffle or fries for us! We are going to try growing sweet potatoes in 15 and 25 gallon fabric grow bags this season. Also trying the Evangeline variety for the first time. Greg made a excellent point about the drip tape as insurance against drought. I will take note and put the drip in the bags when I plant the slips so I can water without wetting the leaves later if needed (and not have to fight leaves trying to put it in later). I've converted to 100% water soluble fertilization this year and so far the results are amazing (using commercial production formulas and some "home mixed"). So drip on the sweet potato bags will be extra important for us this year. I would bet those birds that were stuck in the Monterey sticky traps were trying to eat the insects that were previously trapped and then got stuck also!
Old Goat is hiding in the sweet potatoes behind Mama Hoss - and I love my sweet potatoes baked, split, and slathered with butter. :)
Love the flowers
Thanks Gwen
Old goat in the sweet potatoe basket behind mamma hoss!
I love baked sweet potatoes with butter and brown sugar!!
I love my sweet potatoes fried. I'm going to try growing the white variety, and hopefully, I'll love them all kinds of ways.
I see old goat behind the basket to the right of Mrs. Hoss. Sweet potato fries are my favorite! Never tried growing them before but I’m always looking for new things to grow, especially ones that can take the summer heat.
Besides the 24 sweet potato slips I got from you the 4 I had buried in pots finally took off and I got another 30 more slips. All are in very large grow bags along with my regular potatoes awaiting my drip system I purchased from y’all
I like sweet potato casserole but my wife likes sweet potato fries. Thanks for the videos.
Sweet Potato casserole, Thanksgiving style with marshmallows and pecan crumble mixed together 🤤🤤
Sweet potato soufflé, that is my favorite sweet potato dish. If done right, to me it can about be eaten as a dessert.
The Old Goat is on Sheila's side next to the sweet potatoes in the flower basket. My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is a souffle or fries.
I started growing Mohan Yam Sweet Potatoes 2022 and we really love them. My favorite way to eat them is cooked in the instant pot then with some butter. This variety is so sweet I don't think they need brown sugar/sweetener. We also make French fries, mashed sweet potatoes then baked with some nuts and sugar and butter to carnalize but like I said they don't really need it.
I love sweet potatoes baked! like a regular potato.
Old goats peeking around the sweet potato’s behind mama Hoss
I love sweet potatoes baked with lots of real butter!
You two have got me interested in trying sweet potatos fried would be my favorite way. Ole goat is to the right behind the sweet potatoes
Old goat is in the grass. That fake grass behind mr hoss. My favorite way is the little one boiled with skins on. Then cut in half through the center, sprinkle some brown sugar and sauté them till the brown sugar gets brown and crispy. Me and my kids love them that way.
My favorite way for sweet potatoes is cut in half and I put a little and butter on a baking sheet with a bit of brown sugar flesh side down and bake them !! Can also do it in the microwave in a glass baking dish !! Yummy
Thank y'all. Have a ton of slips planted this year and more getting growing. Y'all did a good job hiding the old goat this time. Think it's next to the sweet potatoes on that lowest right shelf looking at y'all.
I grow kale, collards, parsley, Strawberries and the little birdie tomatoes in my greenstalk. I love it! I'm hoping to get one for my mother in law since she has mobility issues
I cube up my sweet potatoes and roast them with cinnamon and butter, then freeze dry. Such a wonderful healthy snack, and no matter what variety, they'll keep for years.
How long do you roast them?
@@gardeningwithhoss About 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
I love my sweet potatoes baked. Sweet potatoes are very nutritious.
I love my sweet potatoes baked and drowned in butter. Yum!
I love sweet potatoes roasted then consumed with sooo much butter!
