Growing Potato

re late potato plantings, I planted 3 batches, the 1st in mid nov, the 2nd in early dec and the last in mid dec. I am harvesting the 1st batch now - very productive. The 2nd lot have probably only grown to 3/4 size and the last lot have only grown to barely 1/2 size. I expect they'll produce something but maybe not enough to make it worthwhile. Mid-late november will be as late as I'll plant in future. I'm east of melbourne.
