Cropwise, I'm disappointed if I don't get 15-20, if not more off a root of earlies, but this is in open ground.
Would a recently dug 9 foot long terraced plot be classed as open ground?

I would think so!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

No. Obviously the crop will be later, but as you've staggered the plantings, you'll have a longer season of "new" potatoes.
