Harvested the Adretta and Blue Congo varieties since they were completely dead after summer and did not survive the drought. The other three are growing back after the heat and I let them in until they die.
Adretta harvest: 463g
Blue Congo harvest: 120g
Most of the tubers are too tiny to peal or eat.
