Fall Planting Potatoes from TPS

Hey everyone,
I’m hoping to get some advice from folks with more experience growing potatoes from true seed (TPS). I’m in zone 6b and had hoped to do a spring planting, but I didn’t get my seeds in time. I ended up starting them indoors in early June instead.

Obviously, this isn’t ideal timing, but I’d still like to see what I can get out of this season. Has anyone here had success planting TPS seedlings out for a fall harvest? Any tips for timing, care, or what to expect yield-wise going into cooler weather?

I’m mostly doing this for the experience and to get some selections to work with for next year, but it’d be nice to get something decent to harvest too.
