Crop Details

Transplant Conditions: Wait until soil reaches 65°F and nights stay above 55°F before moving outdoors. Harden off for 10 days first.
Direct sow preferred — this crop has sensitive roots and does not transplant well. If starting indoors, use biodegradable pots and disturb roots as little as possible when moving outdoors.

Expert Note: For best purple-fleshed flavor, use slips/cuttings and wait until soil is fully warm before planting; keep evenly moist until vines establish, then water less to encourage tuber sizing.
