Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night!

Morning all.
Got my leeks in yesterday - 131 Musselburgh. The extra 1 was thanks to a mole tunnel I'd failed to dig out. Dibbed hole, dropped in leekling, bit of compost and then half way through watering in there was a whoosh and a gurgle and the lot disappeared   More compost, another leek and this time it stayed put. The joy of gardening on a mole infested slope 

We have storms and hail forecast today and given that the hailstones can be big enough to smash roofs I've spent the morning rigging up protection for my lovelies - aubergines, peppers & chilllies. The rest will get individual buckets or pots if it looks bad.

Have a good day folks, and I hope those waiting for rain get it  And a decent amount.

Hi PP

Leek envy here, when you have 5mins would you mind explaining when and how you sow your leeks and what size they were when you planted out?

Much appreciated......

Hi Danny - they were sown in a big pot (15cm ish) on the 29th Feb and were between darning needle and thin pencil size at planting out. I don't pot them on or anything, just take them out of the pot and stand the clump in a deep tray of water while planting out so it is easy to separate the plants. Hope that helps
