Planting Instructions:
- Timing: Start seeds indoors 10-12 weeks before the last expected frost, or plant directly in the garden in early spring when the soil is workable.
- Soil Preparation: Asparagus thrives in well-draining, fertile soil with a pH of 6.5-7.5. Amend with compost or well-rotted manure to boost fertility.
- Sowing Depth: Plant seeds 1/2 inch deep in pots or seed trays if starting indoors. For outdoor planting, sow seeds 1/2 inch deep in rows.
- Transplanting: Once seedlings are 10-12 weeks old and after the danger of frost has passed, transplant them to the garden, spacing them 12-18 inches apart with 3-4 feet between rows.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Asparagus plants have deep roots and benefit from deep watering.
