The leeks were painfully slow to get started, but they are growing rapidly now - almost twice as thick as they were 2 weeks ago. I continue to mound the dirt around their stems - hoping to increase the white areas at the bottom of the plants which is the best for eating.
The leeks have been disease free and haven't been bothered by any pests. The only drawback to growing leeks is that they take their sweet time. Leeks are not a fast-growing crop!
