Removing flowers from potatoes

You'd be wasting your time.
Removing the flowers is totally unnecessary and of no benefit to the potatoes.

Leaving the flowers will do more good. It'll keep the bees happy and look pretty. 

Put it this way...the farmers don't remove them    

No need to read all the old threads, just use the "search" facility.

I use the flowers as an indication that my tubers are starting to fatten up and it gives me an approximate time when I can start sneaking a few out from under the plant, which leaves the rest room to fatten up still more. My mother and her mother never took the flowers off potatoes, nor do I.

I have 9 x 30 ft rows of potatoes - remove flowers, daft idea as they make no difference to the tuber crop.
