Grow Leeks in Buckets in your Garden or Back Yard.

Just been given some show variety Leeks to grow on. Usually grown in Air Pot's in a Polytunnel or Greenhouse to maturity Show Leeks have a pampered life. Started in Winter, heat and light is provided and in some cases automatic watering from a mixing tank where liquid fertiliser is added. The cost can be significant if you want to take a top spot on the show bench. Here at Home Grown Veg we are growing for the kitchen so these leeks will have to do their best in 10" Ex Cut Flower water buckets in a compost soil mix stood outdoors to take whatever weather comes our way.
