Tips Leek
Soil preparation 
- Leeks thrive in fertile, deep, and well-drained soil. Rich organic matter ensures optimal growth.
- The ideal pH for leek soil is slightly acidic, around 6.0 to 6.5, to promote good nutrient absorption.
- Before planting your leeks, loosen the soil to a depth of at least 30 cm to allow the roots to grow freely.
- Add compost or well-rotted manure to enrich the soil and improve its water retention capacity.
- Avoid heavy or clayey soils that can cause water stagnation, which harms the roots.
Planting
- Plant leeks in the spring or fall after the last frost. Choose a sunny or partially shaded location.
- Space your plants 15 to 20 cm apart to ensure good air circulation and prevent disease development.
- Plant your leeks deeply, burying the bulb up to the base of the leaves. This will help form tender white stems.
- If you planted your leeks in deep holes, you can gradually bury them as they grow.
Watering
- Leeks require regular watering to keep the soil moist, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
- During dry spells, ensure deep watering, especially when leeks begin forming stems.
- Mulching around leeks helps retain soil moisture and reduces watering frequency.
- Avoid watering leeks during the hottest hours of the day to prevent rapid evaporation.
Fertilizer
- Leeks benefit from regular fertilization throughout their growth. Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer.
- For optimal results, apply a nitrogen-rich fertilizer early in the leek's growth to encourage leaf development.
- Reduce fertilizer application later in the season to avoid excessive vegetative growth at the expense of root development.
Harvesting
- Leeks are ready for harvest when they reach about 2-3 cm in diameter, typically 4 to 6 months after planting.
- To harvest, gently pull the leeks from the ground using a fork or spade, being careful not to damage the roots.
- Leeks can be left in the ground for a few weeks after harvest to mature, but make sure to harvest them before frost arrives.
