Sowed a tray of "Nipper" baby leeks that are supposed to be ready in 10 weeks from sowing, to pull at spring onion size or can be left to grow on to a more normal size.

Yeh I normally do that with my onions anyway. Just sprinkle a few seeds in each module. And then plant them all together when there ready to go out. It will probably be even better for pickling onions as you'll be harvesting them small. So you can more than likely get away with quite a few in each module Hello Urban / All
Do you multi-sow other crops? There Is actually quite a few things you can multi-sow like that, Have you heard of Charles Dowding? have a search for him on youtube, He talks about multi-sowing quite a bit

Yes I've seen his videos and am tempted therefore was wondering if other people had already tried it. My plan is to try a normal row plus a multi row of at least beets, turnips, and leeks, maybe more.

I've multisown lots of things - I call it being too lazy to thin them out!

I feel like a pro because I've sown some of the same. Beaver dam and Onza. What am I going to do with all the chillies, if they grow? Oh I know, start a business . Only joking SC, no way I want that sort of stress.
Sowed some more Red Robin too.

Mine are currently sitting on the windowsill. As it's my first time growing these I was wondering if you had considered when you'd be planting these out?
