Straw Bale Sweet Potatoes - Four Types Grown In A Straw Bale

I planted two straw bales with sweet potatoes this year. I'm really happy with how they did and the harvest that I got. In this video, I'll show you my harvest of the first bale. I planted 4 types of sweet potatoes in this straw bale, and I also planted a few slips right in front of the bale. I was a little surprised that the slips in the bale actually did better than the slips planted directly in the ground. The 4 different types of sweet potatoes that I grew in this bale are Molokai Purple, Myanmar, Okinawan Purple, and an unnamed variety that I got at trader Joe's. Spoiler alert.....the unnamed variety grew some huge sweet potatoes. Before you go, let us know what your favorite sweet potato is to grow.
