asparagus production

romain as in lettuce?
anything special you do to "encourage" it along?

back to asparagus... we are working on the blueberry bushes and finding asparagus popping up!!
looks the birds have been doing some planting for us!
that's good, they need to do something to help, because all I've seen so far is them being takers (eating our fruit!)

asparagus again!

are you guys and gals getting tired of seeing this thread?

they are back...
and the row is across one end of the garden... I drive over it with any machine. tractor/tiller/truck any time I enter the gate.
as protus said, I break off a piece or two every time I walk by.

thank you Lord!

Heck no! I didn't know this thread existed until today. Congrats on the return of your asparagus. Growing up we had a similar situation with cherry tomatoes. One year my mom threw away some spoiled cherry tomatoes into our mulch barrel. Later that year I used the mulch barrel when I tilled and planted the garden. We didn't plant cherry tomatoes because AZ has a very nasty rep for being near impossible to grow tomatoes due to the heat. Well, the cherry tomatoes started coming up every year after that. They became prolific. At the height we were picking 200-300 cherry tomatoes every other day. It was nuts.

Again, congrats!

Asparagus is an awesome thing also cause few people RECOGNIZE the crop. Put it out of the way near fence lines, out in the woods, etc.

Did I post that pic here of that huge one the length of my rifle that one time?
