In about 1-2 weeks, white roots will emerge from the sweet potatoes. Step 2Prepare a flowerpot that is more than 15 cm in size, stand the root end of the sweet potato upright and plant it in the soil. The top does not need to be completely buried, a little bit of the head can be exposed. There are no requirements for the soil quality. Water it thoroughly after planting.
