growing leeks

i dont realy know but what i do know bye nature is that a grow bag is quite thin and leeks bye nature are quite tall deep growing plants .i guess if you could support the grow bag on its side then you will definatly be able to.i wonder what makes it necceserry excuse my terrible spelling to need or want to grow leeks in a grow bag.the answer would be much easier with that little bit of information .im not sure im right as i dont grow vedge but im quite sure as leeks mature theres a fare praportion of leek under the ground ie the white part.

NO, or not leeks that will be worth eating!

Leeks need to root deeply unless you want to eat them like spring onions (the green tops while still young). To produce the long white stems you have to do it traditionally by making a hole with a 'dibber' and popping the young plant into this, then filling the hole with water. Don't follow the usual advice of trimming roots, but trim a bit off the top so they aren't stressed while they are re-rooting.

i digress i think it would be possible if you could support the grow bag all the way round on its side giving them the depth they need.the most importent question is why would you want or need to grow them in a grow bag.if its room just poar the grow bag contents into a deep and possibly slim container as they need depth as aposed to width.

I agree with NP's second comment. After all, the champion leek growers grow them in drainpipes don't they? Depends if you want quantity or quality I suppose!

nice one bertie id still like to know why youd want to go to the hassle of growing them in said bag !
