Harvesting Potatoes For Storage. Harvesting potatoes used for winter storage should not be done until after the potato plants have flowered and the vines die off. Potatoes may be left in the ground to extract as much energy from the vines as possible as long as the soil does not freeze.
I've heard the tip that when the flowers die down it's harvest time. Don't know where you heard that but it isn't accurate since it applies only to getting a few new potatoes, not the main crop. Of course if all you want is a few new potatoes then you can just pull up the whole plant.
