Leek

164  Broadcast 50 to 75 lbs nitrogen per acre and the recommended phosphate and potash and work into the soil prior to planting.  Sidedress with 25 to 50 lbs nitrogen per acre 3 to 4 weeks after planting if needed.

241  This is a boron sensitive crop.  Apply with the broadcast fertilizer 1 to 2 lbs boron per acre.  (When soil test boron is not excessive)

652  The soil test manganese is low, however, this is not a manganese sensitive crop, therefore no manganese is recommended.  (When soil test manganese is low)
