Leek It Out!

Posted on the 29 December 2020 by Ourallotment @OurAllotment
We had thought the first vegetables to be sown were going to be the aubergines, but I had seen across social media that a few folks had sown their onions and leeks, they talk of it as though it was a Boxing Day tradition, not that I can find anything to back this up. Anyway, although we would have had some seeds coming, due in the new year, On an expedition to the shops yesterday we picked up some Leek seeds. 400 to a packet which if you had a 100% strike rate would mean a lot of leak, Weel sown half now and left the other half for a month or so's time in case this fails.

Leek it out!

The first tray that came to hand, and much like building a dry stone wall they say you use the stone which you pick up, rather than putting them 


Leek it out!

What to do and the size of the seeds


Leek it out!

Seeds were going to be 9 to a square, but you saw the size of the seeds on the last photo, and where as it started off with that good intention it became much more free range by the last few swuares.


Leek it out!

Covered, hopefully to keep them warm.
