round red potatoes

10 years ago

I harvested my round red potatoes in may, planted in early feburary, I left the really small one's down, they have started to sprout, and are growing back, I was under the impression that they only grew in the cooler months. will these new comers produce in central florida? will I get another harvest?

You may get a few but usually it is just the plant top with no potatoes. And if you do get a few many times they aren't edible. They tend to be hard as rocks and very small.

Just curious why you left them? If you don't want to eat them then store them for a fall planting in your zone.
