Sooo... do the vines die back, and you just leave them alone until havesting them in the fall?
June is usually fairly rainy here, then it's not uncommon for there to be no real rain after that until into September - certainly not
enough rain to get through all the mulch. The potatoes seem fine with that. Up until now I've been growing full season potatoes so the frost usually kills most of them, and I harvest sometime after that, sooner or later depending on weather and gopher appetite 🙄
This year I'm growing early, mid, and late season varieties - nine different ones! I'll see which ones work with my methods.
