Last week, Elaine asked:

<Folks:  I know keeping onion tops trimmed is a good thing until they are set out.  But what about leeks?  Is it recommended to trim them to 4" too?  anyone have any experience with this?>

Elaine, I never trim tops of onions or leeks, and both seem fine. Why is it supposed to be good to trim them? (I hate cutting bits off healthy plants!)
