Default What to feed leeks?

All info gratefully received.


I normally water with a seaweed extract at first to get them going then
leave them alone. BTW are you a drill or hole planter? I'm the latter.

I watered them into holes this time. Perhaps it's not too late for me
to do similar to you and give them some seaweed extract.
