and now I have small tomato shaped "fruits"

Am I right (After googling) that sowing in much the same way as tomatoes
that I will end up with small tubers which are then planted out instead of
spuds with eyes?


That's my understanding, yes.

also, SWMBO needs to know when best to plant the seeds too.


Ripen the fruits first, of course! I would guess spring. The chances
of a useful variety are low, but you might make your fortune.
