Hiya Happy Girlie  Hope I'm not too late to help .... for leekes I usually use old toilet roll middles and drop them into a hole about 5" down then drop the leek plants into said hole and water well. I'm guessing a spacing between plants of about 6" or so too. Not sure where abouts you are in Brittany or France but usually stores like Point Vert, Bricomarche etc have loads of seeds and also young plants for sale. Would love to know how you get on. Ali |

Great news I love home growing tho have let my patch go for the past 2 years  There's nothing like walking back to the house with a basket of fresh 'produce' 58 Leeks! - It'll be windy in winter  |
