When is it best to pull up those good old spuds?
 

My question may be rather simple but I have had a hard time finding the
answer. I planted some potato seeds in the begining of may and I have no
idea when to dig them up. Please help as this is my first year of growing
and those damn slugs have already eaten my lovely green lettuces, every
pick of them. Thanx

What if you want new potatoes? Do you still wait until the tops are dying?
