Default Potatoes blooming - how long to harvest?

I have a 50 foot long bed of potatoes. They are growing well, but they have

blossoms to harvest? They have never bloomed so early in the season before.


Everything is FUBAR'd now, due to global warming. We had a tiny
rain in JUNE, which never happened before in the umpty years I've been
in So. Calif coastal. A definite rainy season, +- Nov to Mar, but
not after. Not any more!

(I know this doesn't answer your q. but not knowing your area...)
