As the top of the plants continued to die back, we decided to cut them back at the soil level, in order to prevent any blight spores on the leaves and stems from being washed into the soil and infecting the tubers. We have dug up a number of plants and will leave the rest of them in the ground until needed.
The remains of the potato plant, where in this case we can see that the seed potato had sent up 4 stems.
