Harvesting a Tip-Top Staple Crop (14,000 calories in TEN FEET of Row!)

Today we're harvesting true yams! (Dioscorea spp.). Take a look at the yield we got! Also, we got a yield of blue potatoes from the SAME bed, earlier in the year! Our yams have had no pest or disease issues and are easy to grow, making them a very good survival crop, as I cover in these books: Florida Survival Gardening: https://amzn.to/3NchEil Totally Crazy Easy Florida Gardening: https://amzn.to/3Nau2zm The Huge 2nd edition of Create your Own Florida Food Forest: https://amzn.to/3Rs08ZY The South Florida Gardening Survival Guide: https://amzn.to/3uNkZOE Yam articles at The Survival Gardener website: https://www.thesurvivalgardener.com/?...
