It seems from comments made on Soilman's blog (see links on the right) that several people planted out leeks at a sensible time and still had poor results. It isn't just me then. Baby leeks all round. What wonders the WWW brings to a typically low-tech hobbie, eh?
This is similar to the plum situation - a poor (=non) harvest in 2008. Plums can go in 2-year cycles apparently. I've not seen that mentioned in any book (I probably need to read more).
Does this bode well for 2009? There is talk of a good Summer this year with decent dry and warm weather at the right time. I don't know where these predictions stem from but a blight- and flood-free 2009 would be lovely.
