Well with all the worry of footrot and god knows what else i have had this year with my leeks they are (touch wood) looking clean, healthy and now really starting to grow on. I was a bit worried last week as a few of the leeks had copper streaks running down the barrel but this disapeared once the flag was removed (hopefully just water damage).

The leeks in this bed now measure 7 inches around and 12 inches in length to the button and are roughly all the same which is good. The pendle leeks i have kinda gave up with as they have to many problems, but are larger.

Hopefully these leeks will reach at least 15 inches in height, 18 ideally.
