They got thrashed by the wind so I decided it was time to harvest them anyway. I got a total of 8kg of spuds. Less than I had hoped for but the size of them was impressive, There were several potatoes weighing 450g or more each! Anyway I have bagged them and put them in a cool dry corner of the laundry room for storage and eating over the winter months. I did discover that two tires high is enough as the third tire doesn't really produce any more potatoes. I think this is because by the time your putting the third tire on they are already flowering nicely. Anyhow next years will be two tires each as a result of that little experiment.
