Leeks - 12 July 2006

Got some very welcome help today from my Mum who did lots of digging, while I did the howing, raking and wall building.

The site secretary, Roger came to see us and took me off to find some leek seedlings (donated by Leonard). So I have my first crop in - horray!!

Very easy to plant just make a 6inch deep hole, drop them in and water well (not back filling necessary).


As you can see I have broken my fork, well it was only £5 from Tesco - what did I expect? Can anyone recommend a good fork to me and let me know how much they are?
