planting sweet potatoes

Question

Can you plant sweet potatoes in the same bed as Irish potatoes after the harvest of Irish potatoes?

Answer 1

Yes, I think you can plant sweet potatoes after Irish potatoes. One problem that might arise, though, is that both plants are susceptible to root knot nematodes, so rotation with a non-susceptible crop or choosing a resistant variety of sweet potato might be preferable:
