When should my potatoes be ready?!!

I planted some late potatoes in potato bags on my balcony the first weekend of May. I am pretty sure the instructions said this would result in them being ready about now, but I stuck my hand in the bags and there does not seem to be any potatoes in there! The green plants are huge like trifids, and there are one or two little flowers. Is it possible that I have just grown big potato plants and no actual potatoes?!!

they will be ready once all the flowers have come through and then died off.

Wait for the heads to go flop.
