I'm hoping I get at least a few decent tubers but judging by the size (or lack thereof) of my sweet potato plants, I have a feeling I will be looking at a few fat roots instead. I'm still contemplating taking some cuttings to overwinter - I'm sure our first frost is just around the corner, so I may give it a go - nothing to lose really.<br /><br />We will definitely miss you on Harvest Monday - I remember when I did my first one last year & how exciting it was to finally be a part of it after reading them for sooooo long.

I'm going to miss your posts, all of them, not just Mondays. It's so good of Dave to step in and take over, I'm sure he's going to be a great Harvest Monday host. <br /><br />Sixty-one pounds of sweet potatoes is wonderful! That should keep you feasting for a while. My experience with the inoculants is that they make a noticeable difference with squash, peppers, and eggplants - bigger plants, fruit, and yields. My brassicas seem to get larger as well. I'm not so sure that they make a big difference with other vegetables.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-76903399949330251522015-10-01T14:09:32.034-04:002015-10-01T14:09:32.034-04:00Very impressive sweet potatoes.
