A sample of this year's sweet potato crop. The biggest one in the first picture was almost 2kg. The bucket in the last picture was the crop from my best yielding single plant, and the middle two buckets were from my final four plants.
The yield was actually slightly worse than normal this year, despite the hot summer. 33.5kg from 13 plants. Usually I can average about 3.5kg per plant. I think I didn't water them enough, as the soil under the black plastic mulch was quite dry in places, despite all the rain we've had these last 2 months.
The variety is T65. I grow them outdoors in a very sunny position, planted through holes in a black plastic mulch.
Any other questions, feel free to ask.
