Don't know where you are. Don't know how you treated your potato seeds.
Don't know what potatoes you planted, but I doubt that you've done
anything terminal. If worse comes to worse, wait until the top turn
brown and dry, then see what ya got. I missed harvesting some of mine
last year, this year they're on their way to becoming a weed, and
escaping to the rest of the yard. I suspect that they are hard to kill.
