Transplating Leeks

Hi Everone, Hope you can help!!
 I planted out my leeks in our veg plot about 4 weeks ago, some of them have bent over & laid down but the rest look ok. We also planted 5 in a tub & they look very healthy, can  they be transplanted into veg plot to replace the lazy ones?

I transplanted 32 autum giants on Friday dibbing  in six inches dropped in the plant then put in a pinch of blood fish and bone before filling the hole with water they are all stood to attention .
Some people trim the roots and tops before planting to force new growth I think this is just a personal preference .

I still have a few to transplant when space becomes available I may try the cutting method just for a comparison.

It has now been confirmed that trimming the root's or leaves lower's yield's.
