Time for the final cut

The sweet potatoes are close to harvest, and that means it's time for the final, critical step: a hard trim of the vines. While it might look drastic, cutting back the vines a week or two before harvest is essential to focus the plant's energy on tuber development and to make the final dig-up much easier. I show you what it looks like after trimming back the sweet potato vines and discuss why this seemingly harsh step is one of the best things you can do to ensure a successful, delicious harvest. Perfect for anyone with a small garden or micro-homestead!"
