I wonder if it is due to the water or other variables too, because they are quite a bit further along than mine!! <BR/><BR/>Here are my thoughts:<BR/>1) The water makes a difference<BR/>2) Different variety from different stores<BR/>3) Warmer - our house is kept at 66<BR/>4) Sunlight - we don't have any sunny windows to put plants in. They are all shaded day around.<BR/><BR/>Whatever it is . . . they are doing great! Let me know when the vines they shoot out are 6 inches long, and I'll give you the next step if you need it since I think they will beat mine to that point!The Beginning Farmer's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08930750761646770794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955116067520235636.post-36663333703540611302008-03-18T20:06:00.000-05:002008-03-18T20:06:00.000-05:00I posted an update on ours at the blog with some p...I posted an update on ours at the blog with some photo's. It does seem to help them along. I just had a hard time with the cloudy water. It just didn't look right to me. This is my first time growing them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955116067520235636.post-6565546925972989482008-03-18T11:49:00.000-05:002008-03-18T11:49:00.000-05:00Thanks for updating me on yours!

With all of the stuff we have going on now, my sweet potatoes are going to be overlooked often I'm sure! Good thing they aren't that high maintenance.The Beginning Farmer's Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08930750761646770794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955116067520235636.post-265054162609365552008-03-18T08:07:00.000-05:002008-03-18T08:07:00.000-05:00I started mine a few days ago!
