I'm growing leeks for the first time in my Northern Westchester NY garden (Zone 6B) and am confused by conflicting information about raising them. Reading seed catalogues, other forums etc they all say that leeks are frost tolerant but some sources say to plant the seeds 8-10 weeks before last frost date and to transplant them out as soon as the ground can be worked in early spring, which makes sense. Yet I have seen other sources that say to transplant 2 weeks after the last frost date. There's a big difference between these two dates.
Any input on this subject would be welcome. The variety I have is King Richard and I was planning on planting the seeds this weekend indoors.
