I dig the sweet potatoes right after I pick the last tomatoes before frost. This year I harvested two 5-gallon buckets full.
I also eat the greens throughout the summer when most of my other greens have already gone to seed.
I got started the same way as you, with a potato that was laying on my counter and started to grow.
