If planting in a container, make sure you use a good potting mix in the container. You can make your own potting mix for pennies, read my post on how to make an inexpensive potting mix for pennies. After making the potting mix or buying the potting mix fill the container about 80 percent with your potting mix before planting the leeks. when planting makes sure the roots are completely buried so that they are able to absorb nutrients from the soil or potting mix.

If you are planting it in the garden, select a sunny and well-drained location to plant the leeks. dig a hole that will be able to cover the roots and part of the stem.
