I had no faith that I would be able to grow Asparagus. I knew and still know nothing about it but I wanted to try it. I bought 2 year old crowns off Amazon.com and planted them. My raised beds drain too much and I added a product called Hydretain to the bed about 8-10 days ago and the amount of Asparagus stems have doubled since then. It must like wet soil.

I broke a stem off today and oh my gosh it’s good. I had read that the difference between fresh store bought and homegrown was as big a difference as there is with tomatoes. I didn’t believe that but whoever wrote it was right. Next spring my pee is gonna smell funny for 2 solid months.

If you like Asparagus, give it a whirl. As long as you can keep the weeds down, it appears to not take much maintenance.


If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
