Description
Days to Maturity: 85 from direct sow
Good for Northern areas where the growing season is shorter, Georgia Jets Sweet Potato matures quickly and delivers big yields. The potatoes are often huge, with dark red skin protecting the moist, very succulent bright orange flesh (ready in just 3 months).
Easy to grow and nutritious, sweet potatoes also store well. Set these plants 12 to 15 inches apart in 3-foot rows in a sunny, well-drained spot. After harvest, cure the potatoes in a warm (85 degrees Fahrenheit is preferable) location for 2 weeks, then store at 60 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 to 8 weeks.
Bare Root Sweet Potato Definition:
Also known as slips.
Slips are sprouts grown from a mature sweet potato's eye.

A faster way to grow potatoes vs seed.
NOTE: Sweet potato plants are shipped separately from seed orders, at proper planting time for your area.
