I planted the leeks where I had just pulled out a crop of broad beans so maybe the nitrogen from their root nodules did me a favour

Thank's for the tip Auntie. That's where i'm gonna put mine then!

However., in my defence, mine didn't go in until September, and were little bigger than a blade of grass then, so Iv'e got great expectations for this years offerings!!

They look brilliant, Aunty!

And ... I've put my broadbeans in where the leeks will eventually go! (coz I hadn't originally planned BB and had to shove them in somewhere!) So hopefully they'll grow as well as yours have! Fingers crossed

I cannot believe the size of those :shock: what variety are they?

They're just Musselburgh PB.
