This has been my first season of growing sweet potatoes. I put in 4 varieties and I am now ready to harvest. My question is in relation to propagation. I would like to plant out the same varieties using the potatoes from the harvest. Has anyone had good results propagating sweet potatoes from cuttings taken from plants now and over-wintering them, or are slips taken from the potato in the spring the better way to go. Id appreciate hearing the pros and cons of each method.
Thanks,
Denise Cimmarrusti
