Advice re my Zebrune/Leek seedings please:) - Broadway - 26-04-2022

Hi Folks

Not sure what to do now as I do not believe they are big enough to plant out?

If not big enough yet shall I just plant them on mass into a bigger pot or prick out?

I would prick out your Zebrune into individual pots or modules to grow on a bit and plant leeks in a clump somewhere to get a bit bigger.(possibly cover the leeks if they haven't been hardened off?)

Re the leeks I saw a video yesterday so effectively heeling them in?

Re Zebrunes how deep should I plant them?

Re Zebrunes how deep should I plant them?
Yeah, without the heel! Smile Just pot on the Zebrunes the depth they are now, but give them a bit more space to grow on a bit before planting out.Thats what I would do anyway.

I also had a similar tray of Long Red Florence which I potted on today, will do the Zebrunes tomorrow.

I usually grow those, but forgot to sow the seed this year even though I have it in my seed box! Angry
