Everyone I know only harvest when the plants turn completely brown in fall. What is your take on pikin' taters'?
Just trying to learn.
I love my taters! With our soil it's hard telling how it going to turn out. It's past the bloom stage and about 3 weeks from plant die off as I was told theres a 3 month production until you harvest. This is my first year of growing them and it will not be my last! I take my shovel out there and dig around the base of the plant and looks for the larger taters and leave the rest and make sure to bury them back up when your done. I'm going to keep going down the row and keep harvesting them until the plant dies off.

As long it's alive you can harvest the taters as needed and it will still produce taters until the plant dies off. Most people like their reds smaller then their yellow and whites. I just like them covered with butter!

Thanks for explaining duke.
I like your way of thinking but it seems like a lot of work.
Since I planted more potatoes than ever have I want to make things simple.
so, this fall Im going to make an investment on a 3pt tater plow.
I can hook it up to my Bota' and make short work of it.
Lazy people find easy ways. I guess.

Nice Rattlesnake pole beans. That's the same variety that I always grow. (Though it looks as if you have about 10 times as many plants.)
Mine are just starting to climb.

Cheers

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
