  1. I had these three leeks I got at the grocery. I used some of them, and only had part of the white ends in the crisper box in the fridge. They kept putting out a little new growth at the cut ends, so, eventually, when I hadn’t eaten them, I stuck them in a container outside. Nothing more than three a-few-inches-long stubs.

    Well, one of them has survived, and the seed head is coming along. I am going to save the seeds, and start leeks early next spring

  3. Leeks: sweet, mild flavor perfect for soups, stews & tarts. 🌱 Tip: plant deep, then “earth up” around stems as they grow for long, tender whites. Even better—trim roots & tops before planting to boost growth! #GrowYourOwn #Leeks #GardenTips

    Time for a coffee! I've got a whole #chicken cooking covered with chopped #potatoes, #carrots, #leeks, #swede, #courgette, #mushrooms, #garlic, #celery, bay leaf, mixed #herbs & chicken stock. I'll use the carcase to make a chicken #soup with the leftover veg in the fridge tomorrow.

  6. My very talented Alan has created a made to measure protective #cage for our little #rockery to save our house #leeks from the attentions of the #blackbirds and #pigeons who love pecking them to bits. It's easy to lift on and off when I need to weed it & I'm chuffed to bits with it 😀

  7. Wisst ihr, was mich richtig glücklich macht? Im #Garten zu arbeiten. Habe heute Salatsetzlinge vereinzelt, #Blumen gesät + entweder #Lauch, #Zwiebeln oder #Knoblauch vereinzelt. Sät sich alles selbst aus, deswegen verliere ich ab + an den Überblick.
    Was macht euch so richtig glücklich?
    I love #gardening. Replanted little #lettuces, #leeks, #onions or #garlics today. Nt really sure as they're allowed to self-seed + then I forget where I had what.
    What fills you with #happiness?

  9. My friend's little allotment was looking much as I had left it on Tuesday (So much for my visiting everyday, eh?! 😊). On first looks I didn't think the leeks I sowed (23/04/26) were showing yet, but on closer inspection.. 🙌 #allotmentgardening #allotments #gardening #vegetables #leeks #kent #england

  11. Check your leeks for pesky leek moth caterpillars! 🐛 These small critters love to munch on leaves, causing damage. Look for tiny holes & silk threads, especially near the base. Remove any caterpillars by hand! 🌱 #Gardening #Leeks #PestControl

  13. Anyone have a bomb potato soup recipe they want to share? I’m making some for whoever shows up for soup… which is usually nobody?

  15. Getting to the very end of last year’s garden harvest and preservation work. Harvested and froze the leeks. Made a potent Louisiana Style Jalapeño sauce and simple Taco Sauce from some fermented Jalapeños. Already ready for this year’s harvest. 🤣 🌱

  17. Leeks are the true gladiators of the garden! ❄️ While other crops surrender to the frost, these hardy giants thrive under a blanket of snow. The cold triggers a sugar surge, making them even sweeter for your winter stews. Just mulch them well & harvest as needed—nature’s own icy pantry. ☃️ #Leeks

  21. Did you know leeks have been loved since ancient Egypt!

    TOP TIP: For long, tender white stems, mound soil up around the plant as it grows (blanching).

    USES: Perfect for hearty soups, stews, gratins, or simply roasted. Delicious!

  25. Truly an incredible, heroic story: Tiffany Slayton’s survival in California's Sierras. We found it well worth listening to the entire 43 mins.

    And BTW, as she commented, “I had actually started my journey a while ago, attempting to bike the United States. I was very successful because I only have six states left.” youtu.be/6eAvrSge4z4?si=AYXtHM

  27. Beginning to look like a normal allotment, whatever 'normal' is....

    GQT yesterday said that to plant outdoors, check for chickweed, man says if it is growing the ground is ar a decent temperature, stable and above 6-8C. None here at the moment so will wait to move out beans and other stuff, maybe, at the earliest, mid April.

    Elsewhere in the plot, broadbeans are fine, also garlic and leek, some spuds are showing up, strawberries having a field day as I am moving them outside, in various places, theory being they'll spread and cover the ground, sort of weed contril

  28. Good day/afternoon/evening/night - depending on your time zone; plot news: here's a few shots of my recycling efforts; the greenhouse remade with used windows recovered from someone; inside view from a 100yo armchair next to the plant container wrapped in gauze, the tank itself is half a water tank made in fiberglass - so not hot water - while the sticks are sections of tent poles.
    While at it also prepared a section of ground for more grapevine, and another section where I planted 20 leeks.

  29. CW: Food, trying new things, cooking, vegan

    I cooked leeks for the first time today. I just roasted them with some salt, pepper, olive oil, and a dash of vinegar. I'm surprised how delicious they are, and I think I'll have to more regularly work them into my cooking! They seem like they'd be fantastic with a seitan roast 😋

  34. In allotment news, I planted about 50 'Lancelot' leeks in between plants in my row of fava beans. I'm sure they'd prefer their own space but my garden is at capacity already. Fingers crossed that they get along. #leeks #FavaBeans #BroadBeans #allotment #garden #gardening #vegetables
