when to put potatos in grow bag?

[Iamhanuman]

do the bags need covering when the plants have not yet shot up - i.e. tatties still under the earth
or is the fleece/bubblewrap only required when greenery is there??

I have put mine in the bottom of my mini greenhouse, just to be sure they are ok.

Should i be watering them while waiting for the greenery to show?

As far as I am aware its the foilage we need to be protecting from the frost. I may well be wrong though

You could put plastic over the top of the bag and it would speed up the growth and help protect from frost. Yes you must not let the foliage get frosted or leave exposed potatoes open to frost.
