Hello community! I have a question for those more experienced growing potatoes. I grew some last year for the first time and had so much success I want to grow more this year. I was hoping to plant my seed potatoes in phases so they aren't all ready for harvest at the same time. However I noticed last night that all of them are sprouting (I store them in a cellar that stays 55 degrees and is dark). Sprouts are 1-3". I have Kennebec, Red Pontiac, and Russet.

My question is this, how long can I wait to plant these before they are no longer viable? Do I need to get them all in the ground soon?
