Скачать или смотреть Sowing Leeks For Our No Dig Garden

Welcome to our no dig/no till garden where we grow vegetables. We garden in zone 9a. Although we grow our veg from our back garden it is very much set up like allotment gardening UK - allotment life. Our passion is vegetable gardening, bigger harvests and no dig gardening. You will see how growing your own food is so easy.

Leeks are trouble-free crops with a long harvest period that can extend right through winter, they withstand cold weather and can be harvested when there’s not much else available. The leek is a great vegetable for cooler climates, and easy to grow. The white elongated bulb at the base of the leaves, makes a great tasting fresh vegetable, either on its own or in stews or casseroles. The green leafy tops of leek is great for flavouring soups and stews. They are also very nutritious rich in vitamin A. The leek is a member of the onion family, they are able to grow in most soil conditions, so long as it is not waterlogged.

In this video we show you how we sow our leeks and the varieties sown. When they are sown will depend on when you want to harvest them.
