astonishingly a hefty crop in the new raised bed. But what now? Do I have

In my experience, the longer they stay in the ground the more slug
damage results. If this is a crop of earlies, I'd use them as needed
from the ground for a month or so, but immediately cut all foliage off
as soon as you see any signs of blight. Once this happens you may as
well lift them all and keep in a paper sack in a dark cool place.
