Leeks
Leeks need a fertile soil in full sun. Prepare the ground in autumn by digging in garden compost or well-
rotted manure. They grow slowly, so start them off in modules or seedbeds in spring and transplant to their final positions in summer.

Sow outdoors in Mar/Apr, 1cm deep in modules, or 10cm apart in rows 15cm apart in seedbeds. Transplant when plants are 20cm tall, making
holes around 20cm deep with a dibber, dropping a seedling into each hole and filling with water so that soil gradually washes back into the hole around the seedling.
