Back in March, I planted four sweet potato slips. Because its been 120 days and I need the space, we're going to harvest them today. Next year, I want to double the volume to enjoy sweet potatoes during the Fall.

I live in the Sonoran desert near Tucson, Arizona. My hardiness zone is 9a. We get extreme, dry heat from about May through October, monsoon rains in the late summer, and chilly (but mostly mild) winters.

I'm not a master gardener or expert in everything, and this isn't intended to be a gardening tutorial channel. But, I'm always curious to learn and hope you find inspiration, peaceful moments, and perhaps a bit of entertainment as you tag along. More to come!
