Wonderful. Thank you. Where can one get slips from? :) We may just have to get seeds. I thought sweet potatoes were tubers like regular potatoes, but it seems like these things grow on vines like tomatoes or cucumbers. So that changes my whole outlook. I appreciate the clarification. Thank you.

You're very welcome! You can grow them from seeds too. If you want to try to grow them from slips, I can mail some slips to you when you are ready. Just let me know.
The slips would survive on their trip here? We live north of Edmonton, Alberta. We may just buy seeds. But if you are willing to mail slips up, it is worth a try. We can connect when it is warmer and we are ready for them. Thank you
My pleasure! We never know if we never try. Let's connect when it's warmer and you are ready. :-)
Hi there. If you are open to some feedback ... you are voting too much. Your voting power is down to 31%. If you are not aware, visit steemnow.com and put in your user id. It will give you some information to help you manage your voting power. Right now it will take 83 hours to recharge your account. That way your votes are worth more. I'm not sure if you were aware, but too much voting diminishes the value of your votes. I hope this helps.
Thank you so much for your advice. I need to control my tendency of voting too much in order to bring my voting power up. This helps!
I was also thinking that when it comes to the sweet potato shoots, mid june is when the frost risk leaves. However, in the greenhouse it is about mid April. Just so that you know. :)
Wonderful! I'll plan to send some slips to you in mid- April to let you experiment. :)
Hello @wwf,
I just checked the regulations of shipping plants and plant roots across the border of USA and Canada and found out it is even prohibitive :(
Hope everything is going well so far as you prepare for this coming growing season :)
Thanks again for your help!
