I stand the sweet potato in a container, covering about the lower half with water, and place it in a well lit window. It should sprout like crazy (although some store-bought tubers are treated with an inhibitor and those can be difficult - if you can find one in the display that is already sprouting a little, get that one!) Many of the sprouts will grow roots and you just pull them off and plant in your garden. Couldn't be easier! Be aware the vines tend to get long and sprawling, so give them room and stand back!
