Skinny leeks!

[shiney]

I have skinny leeks.

Thin as can be, what did I do wrong? They have plenty of space between them, they are all looking like 'supermodel' type leeks tho'!

Any suggestions?

[Tigerhair]

I don't know - should they be ready yet, did you do what it said on the tin... sorry, packet? Perhaps they've only been eating lettuce. Try pouring chocolate sauce on them to fatten em up a bit!

[Wombat]

Sorry mate, they don't do much for me so I don't grow 'em. Lack of nitrogen perhaps?

Leeks and choccie sauce...mmmm...that's a new one! I never do what it says on the packet. I plant them and hope! In most of my planting cases, the crop is good.

Nitrogen Nev, what do I need to put on them that has it in it?

[Tigerhair]

I love leeks. Try and get yourself the Cabury's Nitrogen sauce, then I am the same, actually, plant and hope... Luckily I have great soil. :)

[shiney]

Do Galaxy do it?

I am glad I am not the only 'plant it and hope' gardener. I should read more tho'.

[Tigerhair]

Yep, Galaxy do it, apparently it's "out of this world".... Oh jeez, someone stop me!!!!!!!! ARGHHHHHHHH

I should be doing some course work at the moment!!! GULP

[shiney]

Oh that's soooo funny. I am laffing here ~ really! (it doesn't take much to amuse me, I am a simple type)

NOW...get on with the course work and I'll sup my wine.

[Tigerhair]

Um, yeah, sure, fine! Right, Multimap, where's Bradford on Avon.....

Right, get my alcohol detector out and.... yep....

Right, Shiney, honey, get another glass (or bottle) out of the cupboard... s*d the course work.... here I come!!!

sigh... OK....

No really, it made me laugh....nearly finished the bottle....hurry before we finish the lot.

Oh god...Millymolly is gonna be after us for going off topic.

[Tigerhair]

Eek... Um, perhaps we could rescue the situation by talking about Leek or Leek and Chocolate wine??? Actually that makes me feel a little queasy!!! HE HE OK... maybe we'll get told off, but it's been fun while it lasted.... haven't solved the leek problem, unless of course you find some Nitrogen?!

[shiney]

I guess Nev or somebody with a huge knowledge of leeks will come to the rescue. (they are a very helpful lot here)

Now..shooooo, go on shoooooooo, coursework beckons.

I am off to check my wine glass.

[Tigerhair]

Um, OK Catch you later

[Wombat]

Try some well rotted chook poo, Shiney!

Nev

[shiney]

I must get those chooks Nev! Thanks for the tip on the hen poo.

I have to build a avian flu barrier pen first. That could be an interesting project indeed.
