I love regrowing vegetables; there is immense satisfaction from getting another crop from homegrown produce. It has led me to regrow lettuce, leeks, and onions from scraps over the year, but my newest find is a bit different. It is growing sweet potato slips in water.
Slips are the shoots of a mature sweet potato, and you grow new plants from these. While potatoes are grown from seed potatoes, sweet potatoes are grown from slips. You can buy slips in the spring, or grow your own by suspending a sweet potato in water. It requires patience, but the reward is that you can get lots of slips for a little effort.
