I am brand new to gardening and we just moved to Montana from Southern Cal. I planted a garden 4 weeks ago using 3 kinds of potatos, Gold Yukons, new potatos & some type of finger potato. My questions are, how long do I have to hill up the dirt around them ? After the plants flower, when can I start harvesting a few at a time ? When the plants die, can I leave the potatos in the ground & if so, how long ? We live in the Bitter Root Valley, about 25 miles from Missoula. Can anyone out there help me ? Thank you, Bob
