  • Too Late For Leeks?

    I planted my leek seeds late as the beds were not ready. I planted at the end of May. The leeks are about one inch high at the moment. Is it too late to get a decent crop?

    If so can you suggest anything else I could plant this late in the season rather than leave the bed unused.

    Thanks

    Leeks take 9-12 months to get a crop.

    Put them in a corner somewhere, use the ground for the summer and replant them in their final positions once the summer crops are harvested.

      Thanks Zazen I will do as you suggest. I have a quiet spot for them.

        I use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
