Wondering how much to grow? Established asparagus plants produce about 1/2lb. of spears per bed foot in spring/early summer. If you are getting asparagus established for the first time, we recommend 5-10 crowns per person. (covers 15-30 row feet)
As soon as you get these plants, they must be planted. fertilize with a well-balanced fertilizer and water well. Bury the entire crown so that the tip of the crown is around 2 inches below the soil level. This will protect the crown from any cold weather. Do not harvest the first year. Let plants become established before harvesting.
Watch the video below on how to plant your asparagus crowns.

I’ve had issues trying to germinate seeds bought from big box stores. Come to find out they are old and a waste of money. MI Gardener seeds are fresh, germinate quickly and stay good for years. My Pablo lettuce is still growing and I look forward to harvesting and eating it!
Love this green tomato! I almost missed the ripeness window because I didn’t realize that it would get the sweetest tinge of pink. (I thought it was a red tomato that was just starting to turn color, until I squeezed it!) The flavor is fresh and mild and sweet—and the color is beautiful.
Finally blooming this September to the point I’m harvesting to create soothing balms with glorious colored blooms!
I had great success with the Red Acre Cabbage. Every plant produced a nice sized head, and each weighed at least 2 pounds. The taste is great and slightly sweet. I will definitely grow this again.
