Can some one tell me how do you know when potatoes are ready? I planted some sweet potatoes first time for me and wondering how do you know when to dig them up? petsaverannette
Standard practice for Kentucky is just before the first killing frost. Some folks scratch out a few of the larger ones in late August with out killing the plant. Works if you are in a big hurry for sweet potatoes.
