Maris Peer potatoes

[aob9]

Hi all, I know there are a lot of posts on potatoes here. I would,however, appreciate if somebody would look at the latest image posted here;      http://www.anthony-antz.blogspot.com/      and tell me if they think these are ready for lifting. They are Maris Peer second earlies. I don't have the planting date to hand but I can add to this when I get home later. The reason I ask is that I am new to potatoes and am going on Holidays next week for about 10 days.


Thanks in advance.

Anthony

Personally I would leave them until you come back, there seems to be plenty of growing potential in them yet.

You could always dig up one root to see what they are like. Alternatively scrape some soil back to have a look,then if you are satified with the size you can pick them or cover them up again as the case needs be!
