Lots going on in the Sweet Potato breeding programs. LA 18=100 from LSU which may be released soon is way more productive than Beauregard and early. Looking forward to that one when available

Exciting new varieties from NC State. Looks almost looks like beach sand where they are growing them, Sweet Potatoes grow well in sandy soils of North Carolina and Georgia,

I grew 12 varieties this year. Still in the process of tasting them. The dry ones are good but not good for baking. Maybe have to boil them
Sand Hill has their 2024 sweet potato list up today. What better day to debut them? I am sure there are several new ones but but the only one I am sure is new is Virginia Red Have a Happy Thanksgiving
