Thanks Davy - its just with April and the squash / bean planting I'll be juggling for space. I'll keep them in for a week or so more then put them in the placcy greenhouse for a few days. What I do need to remember is to pot them on again!
i started mine last week in the greenhouse and they are already breaking the compostlast time i grew leeks i trimmed the roots,had tasty leeks but far from show winnersthis time im not trimming the roots just to see, also have some spare drainpipe around the plot so will try blanching them for the first time
I have been growing for a few year now and never had to pot on one pot leek i don,t understand why people make a rod for their own backs. I set my leeks away in plant pots the top is covered with clear polythene or glass then something to keep the light out. After germination they are left to grow on in the same pot till they get planted out.does not take much space up either
Leeks are quite hardy but i don,t think i would be putting them outside just yet, but then i am in the North East so not the warmest of places.
