Different types of potatoes will take a different amount of time to be ready for harvesting.
New spring potatoes planted in February can be harvested in May after only 100 days.
They are too small for fries and too young for MASH, but are perfect boiled whole.
New potatoes planted later in the warmer season may need as little as 70 days to be ready for harvesting.
Potatoes that you harvest for storage over the winter will be planted later and take as much as 5 months, growing bigger in the process.
A fun way to grow potatoes is in a wooden or metallic barrel. You first plant just the one potato at the bottom filled with rich decomposed compost and soil, and as the plant grows, you keep adding soil until you reach the top of the barrel. The one plant will grow potatoes in all these multiple layers of soil. You can harvest 10 weeks after adding the last layer of soil when the plant is still green, the potatoes on top will be new and delicious, the ones at the bottom layers are fully grown.
