Leeks are traditionally planted using a method called “puddling in”. This involves dibbing a hole about 4/5 inches deep and 2/3 inches diameter. Drop the leek seedling into the hole ensuring all of the roots are at the bottom of the hole. We give our leeks a trim too - both top and bottom as this encourages them to grow faster and bulk up. Fill the hole with water from a can. This places just enough soil around the roots to anchor them in. The leeks will grow to fill in the hole over the next 8/9 months and the hole serves to both keep the first 5 inches of leek white and minimise dirt inside the leek leaves.
