That happens to me every year. What I do is just let the sprouts grow, sometimes they are a foot or so long. Then about 3 weeks or so before planting time I rub off and break off all the long sprouts. You can rub them off with a hand towel. Then I put the potatoes in boxes single layer and bring them into the house. I then put them in an extra bedroom with the light on 24 hr per day... They will then chit up with nice green sprouts... I have been doing this for years. My grandfather did this also. I've been gardening for 40 + years try it with some now and see how it works.
