Leek Advice

You have received some good info so far Danny, if you do have any leeks that start going to seed the center stem that forms is as you have been told better being removed as it can be a bit bitter though the bottom 2 inches isn't too bad and is fine in a stir fry, but if you see any starting to go to seed snap off the seed head and use this leek as soon as possible if left it will start the rest of your crop going to seed, apparently it has something to do with pheromones.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on humans
