Leek Musselburgh Description:
Most popular variety/strong growing habit. Very winter hardy, thick stems. Ready from December onwards.

WHERE TO SOW

Sow the seeds thinly in a well prepared seed bed in shallow drills 1.5cm (3/4") deep in short rows. Can also be sown earlier in trays under glass for exhibition work.  

WHAT TO DO NEXT

Thin seedlings as they grow to 4-5cm (3") apart. When the seedling are about the thickness of a pencil, they should be lifted and transplanted. Make a hole 15cm (6") deep with a rod, trim off the ends of the roots and leaves, drop into the hole and fill with water. Do not fill the hole with soil.

Dropping plants into holes saves the need for earthing up, but a white stem can be increased by additional earthing up as the plants grow.
