I have started sweet potato slips before and the leaves were green?
Is this normal?
I checked for bugs, the leaves are healthy.
Maybe too close to the grow-lights?
Has anyone else seen this with sweet potato slips?
Do yours stay red under grow lights?
Do they turn green once planted outside?
Why are my sweet potato leaves turning red?

Update: the slips are still growing well under the grow lights.
Leaves still red but shiny and healthy.
The potato slips are started to vine, so I think I will trim them and start new plants.
Last year my sweet potato didn't root - this year it looks promising.
