Nutritional Qualities : Rich in vitamins, fiber and essential oils, leeks offer a variety of health benefits.. Growing Conditions : Prefer a temperate, mild and humid climate to grow your leeks.. They are resistant to extreme temperatures, down to -20°C. Choose a sunny location and loose, deep, fresh, well-drained and humus-rich soil.. Association with Carrots : In the vegetable garden, leeks get along well with carrots, forming a beneficial association where the smell of the leek repels the carrot fly, while the carrot repels the leek moth..

Prepare the soil by raking it and removing stones to ensure good drainage. Be sure to stagger planting to extend the harvest period..
