    Do the leeks from the base cuttings grow as big as the original ones VC? though it doesn't really matter, I think that's a great idea and would like to know how often the same base can be used
    it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

        No idea how many times they regrow, rary, or how big. There are some in the photos.
        You can also do it with "spring" onions".

          Today, I exposed my Babington's!!

          Its Shoots week so it was a good time to see how big Babington Island will be this year (don't ask!)

          For those who haven't a clue, Babington leeks are perennial by nature and I'm trying to grow a big clump of them. To date, I haven't eaten any, so don't ask what they taste like, either. Jay-ell says they're similar to Elephant garlic leaves.

          A few of them emerging
