Squelched my way into the plot this morning to harvest some leeks. I lifted three large leeks with a trowel. Once I dug in and broke the roots I pulled the leeks out with a squelch leaving a pool of water where the poor sods had been!
I need to find some leek and onion recipes online as I have quite a few leeks and stored onions. Onion bhaji's sounds canny and I wonder what leek bhaji's would be like? The garlic is starting to show above ground now but some of the Japanese onions I planted last year don't even seem to have grown at all? I have my spring onion sets ready to plant but will leave that until April.
Must take a few peppers off my overwintered chillies at home and see if I can salvage a few seeds. They need to be started asap. The toms can wait a while yet though as I sowed mine far too early last year. Once bitten, twice shy as the saying goes!
