Interview with Mr John (Pop) Porter

Growing leeks – joining club, leek trenches, breeding leeks, seeds, types. People would sell to lesser growers but cheat them with different stock. Detailed aspects of getting the perfect leek. Have to watch for thieves. Disqualified in first contest because hadnt spotted seeds starting. Pleasure and prizes from winning. Selecting and preparing leeks for show. Not identical to the transcriptbut covers same ground quite closely.
