GA: Harvested first potatoes; will harvest bit by bit to eat, leaving most in ground until end of season

The GA potatoes have all died!  Whereas the ones in the yard are very green and healthy-looking.  Not sure if the difference is the variety, the amount of sun, disease or lack thereof, etc.

Anyway, dug up a bit of both GA patches.  The SW patch that had the Colorado potato beetles had a bit of a scrawny harvest, whereas the NE  patch that was covered from day one and didn't have CPBs had bigger potatoes.  But the difference could also be the variety, who knows.
