Dig potatoes now or wait

19 years ago

About half of my potato plants have died and are ready to be harvested, but I was wondering if I should just "store" them in the ground and dig them when needed, or should I dig them up now?

I'd like to leave them be for now as the temperatures lately have been in the upper 90s, but I'm worried about them deterioriating (or getting eaten) if I keep them in the ground.

How long do you usually wait after the plants have died to dig your potatoes?

Thanks!

Bart
