leeks & carrots
I'm translating a text on leeks/carrots/celeriac and the companies that grow/process this food. The sentences I'm having trouble with are:
- "Droge weeromstandigheden en het herinzaaien van sommige velden zorgden voor een moeilijk begin" - this one is related to the carrot season in Germany.
- ... een goed ras en snel inkoelen voorkomt doorgroei [prei].
Thanks in advance!

reseeding and (continued) growth
These are actually two questions.
Herinzaaien - reseeding
This means that new seeds are planted a while after the initial seeding, i.e. between existing plants. This term is mostly used for lawns, however.
Doorgroeien - (continued) growth
Leek spoils relatively quickly after harvesting, but if you cool it soon after harvesting it is better preserved, and the cold also stops continued growth.
