One year when I was in grade school we were in Oklahoma City because my dad had a school for a new piece of equipment. We had science on TV and yes this was in the 60's. Our science teacher asked us to start a sweet potato and whoever got the longest vine would get a prize. So my dad of course let me cos we would eventually plant it. We went back home after my dad's class was over and teacher let me remain in the contest. I was to send a picture when it was over. So I sent everything in and I won. I do not remember what the prize was but just winning was enough.
For some reason this afternoon I was thinking about getting my seeds started because we do not plant here til after Mother's Day because we have had snow on Mother's day. So I had a sweet potato in the fridge and now it is started. I am going to do some bucket gardening this year. Next week I am going to start the peppers and tomato. And who knows what else.
