3 lbs are babies in these parts. Our local nursery will special order sweet potato plants but it’s a 25 plant minimum because they don’t stock them regularly. This year dad said he didn’t want to mess with that many so I cut eyes and sprouts off last years extras like we would seed potatoes. Last year we had close to 3 bushel baskets from 25 plants. One was the size of my head, at 10 lbs. many in the 5-7 range. This year we topped that. We both stood there silent just staring at the beast after we pulled the dirt away. Dad drove it around in the truck all week to show it off like he killed a 200” deer .

I prefer the bigger ones to eat. Only need to clean one to feed the family, and believe it or not they’re aren’t fibrous or stringy. Just a little tough to cut all the way through

I so wanna share my Amish potato joke. I don't need a vacation from Tman though.

came home and found these on the table. 3 over 3lb. The biggest she has ever grown. And now can't eat them on low carb.
