Leek – Hannibal (Organic)

£2.25

A dependable autumn variety that bulks up quickly throughout September and can be harvested up to December. An organic favourite, Hannibal produces a long dense shaft and mid-green leaves. It has a mild flavour and plenty of heart.

When to sow: March – April

Spacing: 15 x 30cm

Leek tips: Seedbed method: Sow seed 1cm deep in 10cm wide drills, around 2-300 seeds per metre. When the plants are pencil-thickness, dig them up, trim the roots back to 3cm, and the stems to 2/3 of their original length. Dib holes 15-20cm deep and drop one leek into each hole. Leave the hole open to give the plants room to grow, except in dry spells when the holes should be filled to keep roots from drying out.
