Question for potato growers...

[Viva_La_Revolution]

I planted a small barrel in March with little reds. They've grown very well, healthy and strong. They stopped growing a few weeks ago, and now are dying off... but they never flowered.

We haven't had real sunshine in two weeks (after a month of sunnier, drier and hotter weather than normal), could that be a factor?

I'm a potato newbie :shrug:

1. If they are short-season potatoes, they may be done growing

The Yukon Gold potatoes that I am growing this year are early season 70-90 days. The Russian Banana fingerling potatoes that I grew last year had a season of 105-135 days. http://www.abundantlifeseeds.com/product/492/31

2. So it's okay that they didn't flower?

that's the thing that's got me worried.
