Looking ahead...

I decided to dig 5 hills of sweet potatoes tonight just to see how they were. Here is what I found...


I put my shoe by them to give you an idea of the size of these things. Amazing!!!

I did find a few that had been chewed on by mice so it really is time to get them out of the ground. 
They will also need to be stored at 80-85 degrees for a week or so, this helps make them sweet and thickens the skins (I know there is a name for this but it has escaped from my memory) so you will be getting them after this process.
