My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Growing leeks, trimming, blanching etc.

4 years ago

Lots of questions. I am growing American flag leeks from seeds starting indoors 8 weeks BLF


1. Do you trim your leaks at any point, if yes how and when?


2. do you bury stems when transplanting to the garden? How much?


3. Do you continue to hill dirt to blanch and if yes how and when?


Any tips are appreciated!
