Curing Sweetpotatoes
Immediately following harvest, sweetpotatoes need to be cured. Curing protects the root during storage. Sweetpotatoes need to be cured at 85 degrees, 85% humidity for 5 to 7 days. Once cured, store sweetpotato roots at about 60 degrees. Do not store below 55 degrees. This will produce a chill injury factor, resulting in a hard core &/or rapid spoilage.
