Problems With Garden Vegetables – Leeks

If you leeks have failed to mature this winter leave them and see if
they beef up over the next 8 weeks.If they show no signs I would start
again.Sometimes they have problems caused when they are being
transplanted the roots get damaged,this is why they are best
transplanted by creating a hole and then planted by hold the leek in the
hole and pouring water from the top of the hole so the soil collapses
around the root.If they start to flower then you have lost them and you
will be best removing them.Other common problems can be a lack of
nutrients such as iron and a badly structured soil through the lack of
organic matter or humists in the soil.
