I've grown some Mussleborough leeks this year on a fairly sunny spot in
sandy soil. They haven't turned out very big - about 10% are more then
1" in diameter. They smell wonderful when cut but the taste when fried
or stewed is fairly bitter. No obvious diseases or pests. I used the
hole planting method and the stems are nicely blanched

Tesco do bigger and better.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
