leeks

I had a Brain storm today and decided that although the collection of Pendle improved Leeks was imminent I would sow some leek seeds as a banker. I sowed some Robinson's Giant Leeks in Rootainers they are now awaiting germination. It will be good to see which does best at the shows. I was quite successfull with the Robinsons last year considering I was learning as I went along. I am also a month earlier than last year with the sowing. I also sowed some seeds that I saved from my Runner beans and Poppy the pumpkin to check germination, these have now popped through making my first attempt at saving seeds a success.

  1. Its wonderful Blog.With LED grow lights , there is basically no heat produced, you do not need an elaborate exhaust system to remove heat (just for plant odor removal if you so choose), no ballasts are required, and the LEDs will last 7-10 years with no bulb replacement.
