You know I figured, it'd be alright since it seemed to be growing, but just wanted to make sure! I'm happy to know what we're doing is working for it. Those ornamental sweet potatoes are so pretty!
Just curious though, should I cover the the potato with more soil? Or will I eventually need to move it to a larger container?
Edit: I see now that
@Philipwonel, says it'll need a bigger container, thanks for that! Afraid I can't move it to the ground tho, cos the soil on our land is very heavy with clay. However, yea! I did just read that you can eat leaves. Gonna have to look into that soon, i'll make sure to come back and let you know how it goes.
Also, do y'all know if this is a beauregard variety??
Sorry for all the questions, like I said, super new to gardening, in general. lol.
