Have you put off growing sweet potatoes because you think it may not be warm enough in your area? If so try growing them in containers. You can start them indoors and then move them outside with a good growth on them and instead of putting them into the ground, plant them in large containers. This will help the sweet potatoes because the container will drain better and the soil around the roots will be warmer that it would be if they were planted in the ground and sweet potatoes like it a little warmer.
