Default two vegetable garden questions

Yes! Oh, Yes! A hundred times yes.

Planting potato seed is a great way to select new varieties for your
specific area. You can select for instance: Cold Tolerance, Yield, Taste,
Color, etc. And it's also a lot of fun!

See: "Breed Your Own Vegetable Varieties, The Gardener's and Farmer's Guide
to Plant Breeding and Seed Saving" by Carol Deppe.

1. Do potato plants have fruit? I just harvested my first crop of
potatoes, and there are all these little green soft fruit on the ground
where the vines died back. If they are fruit, can they be planted and
become potato vines?

2. What is a good late season crop to plant in the bed where the potatoes
are no more? Or several late season crops
