LEEK 
Belongs to the onion family. Sow the seed and care for the young plants as for onions, but they 
need more room in order to develop. When the young plant is about the size of a goose quill 
transplant to a prepared bed in rows about two feet apart and four or five inches in the row. Set 
the roots deep and draw the earth to them when cultivating, so that they may be well blanched 
by the time they are fit for use.
