Sweet potatoe vines

Question

C. I am having trouble trying to grow sweet potato vines.
They are about one third in water with toothpicks holding them up
I change the water about every 3 days.
They are near a window.

Is it possible they are effected by our water softener?
Should I use distilled water?

Thanks! Hunkydorry

Answer 1

Tubers will not do well in water, you should pot them up or plant them directly into the soil.
You can take cuttings and root them in water.
