We have 6 acres. Putting in two acres of asparagus
Love your videos. I just dug up three-year-old asparagus which had already come out of dormancy which I know is a bad thing but I had to move it unfortunately. Two of the plants were female and had berries but the berries were not red yet (still green) Can I still use the seeds from them or am I Sol?
I have an 8' x 2' raised bed that was full of old chicken manure and dried comfrey. This spring I topped it off with lots of old sheep manure. I bought 2 packets of asparagus seeds and planted them straight in the raised bed about 2" apart in all directions. They all came up everywhere. Do I need to thin them? Should I trim them back before I cover with straw for the winter? I live in central B.C.
Just plant it alreadyyyy squidward
How many month can we eat those asparagus that grow from seeds?
When do you start indoors in relation to transplanting outdoors?
Luke, it’s early August here in south Jersey. My asparagus plants are just about turning the seed pods red. We have about 6 plants total. Do I need to wait until the does are red? Another question is: these plants have been producing for about 5 years. Can I transplant them to another (raised bed) location?
Thanks for making such an informative channel.
Are all asparagus seeds female? If so, how do I get male also?
There are a ton of vids showing this, but hard to find info on what to do when the asperugus comes up and ferns. Mine when through the Fern and died, so I threw them out. I know I shouldn't have, but I don't know what to do with them next. Do you have another vid explaining this process and what to expect from the baby ferns?
This is cool but putting them in the fridge for 2 weeks to make them germinate 1 week sooner is kinda funny
Too much talking.
To much repetation talking ho hum dialogue, almost boring.
thank you for sharing this sir ;)!
I started asparagus seeds 3 per little module as you show in the helpful video but they all germinated! Can I safely separate them or would it damage the roots? I hate to lose 2/3 of the seedlings by snipping off 2 per module, but is that the answer? I'm hoping they're pretty tough and I can separate them and pot them on, but I've never grown them before. Thanks for all the great videos!
I started mine in jiffy pods, but now they are falling over.
Hello from Ontario! I have some red asparagus berries from last years harvest (they have been in the fridge from aug 2019 until june 2020) Do you just throw one berry in each cell? They have like.. 4 seeds per berry. Or do you discard the berry and plant the seed separately. I heard that people dont recommend planting seeds from the original plant because most farmers prefer male only plants. What are your thoughts? Thanks
What month is best to start the seeds?
Can I plant two varieties of asparagus together or close to one another or will this cause cross pollination?
What time of year do you recommend starting outside? I'm in pnw but I'm interested in when you do it and what zone you are…
what usda zones are they hardy to?
I planted Asparagus at the back of a flower bed on the north side of a fence to create a green cloud fern background. After 3 years I have asparagus that comes up in the lawn, cracks in the driveway & overtaking the flowerbed.
Thanks a lot for the video. Great. After placing seeds in place in the containers, do we have to water (spray) the seed with a little water until germinate and continue till grow up to some 6 inches before planting in the garden patch.
Wait 3 in a hole.. do u thin them then?
There wasn't any info about watering.
I planted my seed 5 weeks ago and they are about 10 inches tall! When can I plant them outside in zone 5?
Can you have success just tossing in a well irrigated garden?
2:40 if you don't want to listen to dude plug soil and jabber on about things other than starting asparagus from seed.
How soon do you transplant it into a pot, or directly into the garden? If three come up should they be separated?
I'm new to your channel and I just want to ask did you have a video on how you collect the seed?
Hey I'm an absolute beginner at gardening. How ofter do we water it? And how much water do we provide to the seed?
