  • enjoyed the video. I have 2 plants at 3yrs of age is it easy to move an asparagus plant to another location, if so how long do i have to wait to get a crop. thank you

  • It usually takes a year (or 2) for a plant to adjust to the transplant shock. Once again, harvest lightly the first year of production, letting some stalks go to feather, to allow the roots to re-establish.

  • Do you remove the plastic covering on the bed, during the summer?

    I'm in Texas.

  • yes you can...

  • What will happen to my plants if I cut them in the second year? My husband told me to cut the fern off because he believed that was how it should be done. Did I destroy my plants that I have been waiting for for two years???

    HELP!

  • They should be fine. The feathering is normal and cutting them off will not effect the plant too much. You should still enjoy a great crop next season.

  • plant once and have it for 15 years? remarkable

    ive seen this recently grown indoors, so i believe i will start experimenting with that

  • I was surprised to see it costs about 3 dollars a can for this vegetable but now I see why. It's a lot of work for such a small yield.

  • asparagus has to be my favorite vegetable. is it weird that i prefer it canned? i just like that super soft texture it gets.

  • I am new at thoughtful survival gardening. I have both Jersey and Washington. I like Aspargus for emergency food because here it is January 21 and it is cooking in the pot now fresh cut minutes ago. Squash are in storage, fruit is to young but on the bush and tree so worthless if I was hungary now and failed to dry or can. I also got seeds off the Mary Washington so I will save and plant.

  • very informative. I now know that I will NOT be growing asparagus in my garden,,,lol

  • Thanks for the great informational video and comments. I love Asparagus. Watch out for trolls!

  • Great video - we're planting asparagus for the first time this year and you saved us from planting it upside down!
