I had a sweet potato from the grocery store that was starting to sprout, so I cut it into pieces and planted like potatoes. Only one came up. It is a six- inch clump now. I didn’t know about slips. Is there hope my clump will amount to anything by mid-September when we get our first frost? Do they need to reach a certain size before they are edible? Can we just dig them and eat them right away?
