This is a little late. I have been telling you about trying to grow sweet potatoes from my own slips. well I grew the slips and we planted them in hills. It has rained so hard lately that I haven't been out there to take new pictures but they are finally taken off. Not all of the ones we planted survived but I still have two hot beds with slips more that what I can use and I think it is getting to late in the season to plant more but I am going to plant some more and see. sweet potatoes are better after a frost anyway and although we could see one in October we usually don't until November or December. I have never had much luck with sweet potatoes so I will keep you posted.
A friend gave me some new kinds of beans. One called Peanut beans and the other Anasazi beans. Neither seem to be common. The plants are up and starting to see runners but no beans yet. Keep your fingers crossed. The Kentucky wonders I planted in the corn are finally starting to take off. No beans yet but the corn is almost done and I don't know how I am going to work this one. I also need to find something to plant where the corn is coming out of. I don't want non productive space.
