- Leek, (Allium porrum), is a hardy biennial plant of the amaryllis family (Amaryllidaceae), and is grown as a vegetable. The leek is an ancient crop and is native to eastern Mediterranean lands and the Middle East. The plant is related to the onion and has a mild, sweet, onion-like flavor. Leek stalks are widely used in European soups and stews, especially as a complement to potatoes, and can be cooked whole as a vegetable.
- Leeks are easy to grow from seed and tolerate standing in the field for an extended harvest, which takes place up to 6 months from planting. The soil in which it is grown has to be loose and drained well; leeks can be grown in the same regions where onions can be grown.
Leeks usually reach maturity in autumn. Leeks can be bunched and harvested early when they are about the size of a finger or pencil, or they can be thinned and allowed to grow to a much larger mature size. Hilling leeks can produce better specimens.

The leek is a vegetable, a cultivar of Allium ampeloprasum, the broadleaf wild leek. The edible part of the plant is a bundle of leaf sheaths that is sometimes erroneously called a stem or stalk.
Leeks look like large scallions, having a very small bulb and a long white cylindrical stalk of superimposed layers that flows into green, tightly wrapped, flat leaves. Cultivated leeks are usually about 12 inches in length and one to two inches in diameter and feature a fragrant flavor that is reminiscent of shallots but sweeter and more subtle.
With a more delicate and sweeter flavor than onions, leeks add a subtle touch to recipes without overpowering the other flavors that are present.

All of our leeks are firm and smooth, free of blemishes, and have characteristic white stems with dark green leaves. The cut bottoms should be flat, as rounded bottoms may indicate prolonged storage. We will pack them on the packing shed washing them which assures that it will not have any dirt residues and that will be the appropriate length.
Quality
We will pre cool the crop in the hydro cooler and then after being washed and packed in a carton or RPC box it is topped with crushed ice. This helps achieve the optimum temperature for extending the postharvest life. Leeks will be trimmed so that only at 30.5 cm (12 in) portion of the green top remains. They can, DEPENDING ON DIAMETER be bunched in groups of three and Placed in polyethylene film bags to Prevent moisture loss and if the clients requires it.
Temperature
Leeks can be stored for 2 to 3 mo at 0 ° C (32 ° F) with 95 to 100% RH. High RH is essential to prevent wilting. Good refrigeration retards elongation and curvature that develops in leeks at 10 to 21 ° C (50 to 70 ° F). Leeks held in polyethylene lined crates remain sellable for 5 to 6 weeks at 0 ° C (32 ° F) under crushed ice, 4 weeks at 0 ° C.
