Hello All,
A friend told me that I should pinch off the flowers from my potatoe
plants in order to divert that energy to the tubers. Do people feel
that is correct? I've done it for a couple years and it doesn't seem
to have hurt my crop.

Thanks for the help,
John

I really don't think it would make a lot of difference either way.
