Leeks are limping

I put some leeks "Autumn Giant 3" in on the 25th February. These are the same variety I have grown for the last 3 years with great success and have had no previous problems. I am not sure why though, they are not doing to well. I think the main issue was that I only put 1 seed in per pot instead of 2 or 3. Being a tight Yorkshire man is not always so great. This is a very shakey start for my leeks this year. At least two thirds did not show I have reseeded the missing pots with several seeds




On a more positive note. Below are my alpine strawberries acquired recently from Freegle and planted up in my loo



I have high hopes for very small and very sweet strawberries this year.
