In part of the plot that I didnt think was effected by white rot I planted out some leeks which were doing well until last week when they started to look very tatty and sorry for themselves. On investigation it is definately white rot.
Have to say Im very surprised having read the infor on RHS site which indicated that it only occours when it is cool and damp – our soil has been very dry and whilst it is now cool at night it is not a low temperature that I would ahve thought would impact leeks.
