What Do I Do With My Burgeoning Potato Plants Now?

Question

I planted some purple potatoes in a pot and they have started growing – now what? I’ve never planted potatoes before and don’t know what to do with them. When will I know the potatoes are ready to harvest? What pests should I be aware of and how do I control them? Please help.
