500pcs+ Wide-leaf Leek Seeds for Four Season Planting, 宽叶蒜苗种子

Description: General Instructions: Starting Indoors:Begin by sowing leek seeds indoors around 8-12 weeks before the last expected spring frost. Use a sterile seed-starting mix in a tray or cell pack, planting a few seeds per cell at a depth of ¼ to ½ inch. Seeds typically germinate in 10 to 14 days if kept at around 70°F (21°C). Use a seedling heat mat if the room temperature is cool. Ensure the seedlings receive plenty of light, such as on a sunny windowsill or under grow lights, for about 12-16 hours a day. Once seedlings reach about 2 inches in height, they should be transplanted into individual pots to grow further. Before moving the seedlings outdoors, harden them off by exposing them to outdoor conditions for one week. Planting Outdoors:Prepare the soil in your garden by making it fertile and ensuring it is well-drained with high organic matter levels, with an ideal pH of 6.0-7.0. Seedlings can be planted out just before the last frost date or when they are about 4-6 inches tall. If direct sowing, wait until the risk of frost has passed and sow seeds ¼ to ½ inch deep in rows. Space seedlings or seeds about 4-6 inches apart, with rows 12-16 inches apart. Using double rows can give the leaves more room to grow. Leeks can be sown or transplanted into trenches 5-6 inches deep, which allows for backfilling soil around the stems as they grow—this blanching makes the stems white and tender. As the leeks grow, fill in the trench or hill soil around them 2-3 times during the beginning of the season to encourage a blanching effect. Care Tips:Leeks need consistent watering, about an inch per week. Use drip irrigation to minimize problems and water directly at the soil level. Mulch around the leeks to keep weeds down and maintain healthy soil conditions. Harvesting:Harvest leeks as needed; they can tolerate cold and can be left in the garden after frost dates. Early-season leek varieties are ready for autumn, while mid and late-season ones can be harvested through winter into spring. Be mindful of pests and diseases like slugs and leek rust, and take preventive measures like crop rotation and using rust-resistant varieties. For pests like slugs, natural deterrents such as crushed eggshells can be effective.
