Plant potatoes now?

Unless you're in a very remote location, get them in pronto 

By the way, it's often useful to know whereabouts people are in order to answer questions.  Could you add your location to your forum profile please?  Just click your username to edit your profile.

I'll also move this thread over to GYO where the veggie stuff is found 

I was advised by one of the old boys on my site to rub off all but two shoots when there are more, and particularly if the tubers are going in late (definitely not too late IMHO - the growing season's only just started and there's loads of it left yet, blimey, the weeds have only just got round to showing themselves, always a good indicator of things to come!  And I'm in the sunny South, so no contradictory geographical comparisons, please!

The reason for rubbing off excess shoots is that they have expended energy in the tuber and thereby weakened it by extending themselves, so if we want the tuber to go on to greatness then it's better to ration the remaining reserve held in the tuber for a couple of strong shoots to kick start it all.

Seemed to make sense to me when it was explained to me, so I hope it does to you, but always willing, nay eager, to hear another point of view.... 

Good luck
