    Or just dig around the plant with your hands and see what you find.

    I'm gonna be having a dig with my hands in the next few days. I cannot remember when I planted mine; was it two and half months ago or three and half? I know that they grew very rigourously, very quickly and flowered (till I pinched them out) about a month ago give or take a week. The last five or six weeks they have been extremely thirsty which i'm guessing is because the tubors have been swelling in that time...Part of the fun isn't it? Not knowing exactly what you're gonna get.

    Dug around with my hand and found this. I 'll pull them all out tomorrow or  the next day.

    Looks like you found out when to dig. Enjoy, nothing like the taste of homegrown!
