Default When to harvest potatoes

I am a novice gardener and have planted seed potatoes and expect a crop very
soon. I have a lot of foliage which is now flowering but have no idea when
to harvest. I have watered well during the hot weather.

The type of potatoes are Charlotte, Highland Burgundy Red main crop and
Salad Blue second early.

Is there a way of knowing when they are ready?

Thanks
