When are Charlottes ready to harvest? - Neffa - 02-06-2020
I have Charlottes which in my opinion are the bees knees of tatties especially, when got out of MFB, steamed, rolled in butter and sprinkled in pepper.
However, I’ve forgotten when they are mature enough to eat?

When they're big enough!
Have a furtle in the pot and see what you can find.

Have they bloomed yet ?, I’d wait until the blooms have been and died off, then do as Veggie suggested, have a root around under one of the plants and see how big the spuds are.

Just checked my journal and last year I had the first of my Charlottes after 14 weeks.
