When do i harvest my early potatoes?
Question:
Answers:
You can harvest a few of your potatoes all summer after they flower.The trick is to make sure the soil is wet,then gently dig under and around your plant.( I use my hands as my soil is very loose when wet.)After removing some of the potatoes for a meal make sure you plant roots are covered really well with the wet dirt.If done correctly your plant will continue to produce through the summer, then you can harverst all the potatoes when your plant starts to die.
depends on where you live
early i expect.
Preferably early - sorry I couldn't resist and I don't know the real answer.
After the leaves have grown and come through the earth, wait until they die back then your potatoes are ready to dg up.
I always though you had to wait until the plant had flowered and died back.
I have no idea but try lowes they are nice an helpful in my experiences.
OH!! im askin the same thing but it is about my pygmy peach tre lol.
i think you have to wait for the flowers to die off xx
Next year
very shortly if you live in the south of UK
mate you have had some stupid answers here, but the lady who says wait until they have flowered is quite right. when this has happened then use a garden fork and have a wee peek to see what tubers you have
When the flower dies and the "shaws" start to wilt, will do no harm to ease one plant up with fork to check.
