Up here, the potato farmers have sprayed/killed some of the vines, getting ready to dig, but years ago they never did that, they waited till nearly October, when the air temperature was cool, and you could ware house the spuds and blow in cool air at night so you could keep them, now they start earlier somehow, and get the harvest done much quicker.

A lot of potatoes here are raised for foundation seed potatoes, and size is important....they dont want them too big.
