Certainly last year they grew to massive sizes. They are in the ground for a long time. Because they are so blight resistant, you won't need to dig them up before the frosts hit unless you are particularly unlucky.Made a microwave baked potato with S Mira yesterday and they are very good used this way. Not so good for boiling, because they tend to fall apart. Maybe you need to get an earlier potato as well as the SMs for those delightful early summer spuddies.
I wouldn't advise leaving them in until the frosts hit! They certainly aren't slug resistant!
