Garden soil can be used as the substrate for potted sweet potatoes. , you can also add an appropriate amount of leaf mold soil and coarse sand to make the substrate in a ratio of 5:3:2, and keep the germinated part outside the soil. 3. Hydroponic maintenance
As for how to plant sprouted sweet potatoes into pots, in fact, sweet potatoes can also be cultivated and maintained in water. The sprouted sweet potatoes can be taken out of the sandy soil and the new roots Just wash them and put them into a container filled with water.
