AUTUMN GIANT LEEK
A mid-late variety. The growing period is 135 to 150 days. It forms long, flat, green leaves and thick stems with a tiny size onion. The plant is 20 to 25" tall. The stem's diameter is 2 to 3". The weight of one plant is 10 to 12 oz. Used fresh, canned, or dried.
Planting instructions:
Start sowing the earliest varieties under cover in late winter.
To sow your leek seeds, first sieve potting soil into pots or trays and gently tamp the potting soil down. Sow the seeds about an inch apart in trays or pots or two seeds per cell in a plug tray. Cover them with a thin layer of more sieved potting soil, and water them. Keep the potting soil moist but not too wet. Place early sowings on a sunny indoor windowsill or in a greenhouse.
Leeks are ready to transplant when they are six to eight inches tall. Acclimatize them to outdoor conditions first (a process called hardening off) by putting them outside for increasingly longer periods over one to two weeks. To plant your leeks in the soil, dib holes that are about the same height as the stems of the leek seedlings. Remove the leeks from their pots. Place the seedlings into the holes, making sure the roots reach right down to the bottom of the hole. Fill the holes with water and leave to drain. Dont fill the holes back in with soil it will fall back in by itself over time, allowing the leek stems to swell and helping to blanch them.
Water your leeks if the weather is very dry.
