I put the tubers in the raised beds 2 weeks ago. One is about an inch up. the others: nothing. Of course I want to dig them up and "peek" but I know better. How long should I wait?

RE: how long to wait?

Last year most of the tubers that I planted that hadn't already been started inside, took about 10 days to show above ground, but I had a few that were pretty dried out that took 3 weeks or so. It will also depend on how warm the soil is. I would try to be patient for another week or so before doing any excavation.
