Chinook leek seeds are certified organic. Chinook sets a new standard for sped and uniformity in summer harvest leeks. Even in cool spring temperatures this leek grows super fast and upright, developing long, even shanks that are easy to clean in the field, and vibrant, medium green tops. Chinook has excellent flavour, and is one of the top performers for south coastal British Columbia and the US Pacific Northwest. It's also great for starting indoors in Prairie and Midwestern climates for transplanting once the soil has warmed up a little. For longer blanched (white) shanks, hill up extra soil around the stems as they grow.
