Brilliant! I just harvest my first crop of Sweet Potatoes and as I was starting to yank out the vines, I saw how well rooted they were. I thought "Mmmmh I wonder if I could keep them until next spring, indoors ." So I looked at You Tube,and I found your video, confirming what I suspected. Thank you so much!

Great vid. I use potassium based soap (Dr. Bronner's or Oasis) for this purpose. It's much less stressful to the plant than common sodium based soap. Detergent is different than soap and something you never want to use on plants.

Fantastic! I am glad you can try it out. They are really easy to keep going. In fact, one of the jars full of slips we didn't get in the water for two full days after removing them from the plant and they were still full of life. These vines are fantastic, except in the face of a frost. :) Good luck, and we would love to know how it works out for you!

You could potentially keep them growing indoors, and then trim occassionally and capture those slips and plant and trim and plant and keep the cycle going as long as you wanted. For us, we grew them for about 4 months indoors and then harvested, but we could have taken more slips from them while they were growing for sure.

I have the rest of the year before needing to worry about frost down here in NC. but I always like to learn now what I need to do since I only have about another month and a half until my harvest should be good. Would it be a good idea to already have the slips growing outside in August and just cover them during the short amount of frost periods (mid November - early April). Because of where I live we've had 80 degrees on Christmas and random snow in March.

When did you make this video that you're expecting frost soon, or did you try this in a previous year? I got my plants in late and they won't make a harvest, so thinking of cutting some nodes to bring in and wasn't sure of water or soil to use to overwinter. When I received my vines it was late and I was waiting for a large container to arrive and while waiting, I put the slips in a quart cup with tap water and 2 days later, the roots that were at the nodes/ends went from fine roots an inch to 2" long, to almost no roots! I planted most and only 2 survived, so with the bucket, soilmix and slips, that's about $15-$20 each! You can see why I want to save them. I don't have much room indoors and the plant light/stand I'll need to start onions & cauli beginning of February, peppers & tomatoes mid-late March. Do you just keep cutting nodes off the originals to make a more manageable size, or cut nodes off & keep restarting them?

I overwinter my sweet potato vines last year, i keep them in water with plastic cup (5 to 8 clips in a cup) on the window side, it won't take much space, they will be starting root in a week or less, change water every week, you can keep cutting them when they get too long, also you can trim out some dead root after couple months it won't hurt them , after about two months in the water the slips doesn't look healthy so i pot them up with potting mix in plastic cup , ( i realize they don't get much nutrients in just water) they will look upset in couple days don't worry they will bounce back , i planted them this year in June they are much healthy then i start slips from tubes , i saw sweet potatoes on top of the soil in 3months (zone 5B) . I use black plastic sheeting cover them our zone is not hot enough for sweet potatoes, i have been growing sweet potatoes for 7 years i won't get much from our zone but good enough for me for the winter and is fun, so hope this can help and good luck gardening.

The amount of work overwintering vines indoors -vs- just storing tubers until Spring is kinda ridiculous. In the space alloted for just a dozen plants I can store enough tubers for creating , literally, thousands upon thousands upon thousands of new slips. BONUS: No lighting issues. No pests (hello spider mites). No fungal issues. No fungus gnats. No regular watering. No trimming/pruning/managing. No fertility/nutrient issues. Just a plastic crate in the corner storing tubers.
