What is needed to grow them in the ground? I currently have one growing in water.

About 30cm of soft soil, lot's of water and sunshine. - And a duck proof fence around! They love to eat the leaves! And maybe something to climb up.
My plan is to have two raised beds parallel and connect them with welded wire mesh, like a hoop-house. One bed for sweet potatoes, the other one for beans.

Eggs came in.

Half had detached air cells, the other half had wonky air cells, and they're all definitely over ten days old now. I put them in the incubator but they're very likely not going to do anything.

Good luck!
Sadly now that they have arrived, you cannot blame anyone, the package arrived undamaged…

30 cm is that like an inch and a half?

In the modern, scientifically based, unit system those stinky feet of King George Ⅲ, used to define what is today called a "foot", would measure 30.48 cm.

So why didn’t you just say you put down about a foot of dirt? Everyone could have understood that.

Except the person asking because they grew up with cm . I think the sqeet potatoes have the prettiest leaves when they are bigger. I only learnt recently they grow vines

I have never seen a sweet potato plant.

The Post Office is taking the blame - the people that work at my local one know they messed up, and they're going to send a message to their Consumer Affairs department so that I can put a claim in and hopefully it will be approved.

Of course, I'll still only get half my money back from the claim, sigh.

BIG SIGH.
