Known for its tender, vitamin-rich spears, asparagus can be enjoyed straight from the garden. Plant it in the spring after the frost has passed to ensure optimal growth and flavor.\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal Soil and Mulching Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\nFor successful asparagus growth, use well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.7. Avoid acidic soil as it hinders growth. Apply a 4-8\" layer of mulch to retain moisture and protect the plants. Proper mulching is essential for maintaining healthy asparagus beds.\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting and Maintenance Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\nRefrain from harvesting asparagus spears during the first year. Instead, cut down dead foliage in late fall and side dress with compost. In the second year, keep the bed thickly mulched, add compost in spring and early fall, and continue cutting down dead foliage in late fall for optimal plant health.\n\u003ch3\u003ePlanting Instructions for Thriving Asparagus\u003c\/h3\u003e\nChoose a full sun location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Dig a trench 6\" wide and 6-12\" deep, then work in a 2-4\" layer of compost, manure, or soil mix. Create a mound in the trench, plant crowns 15-18\" apart, and spread the roots over the ridge. Cover the roots and crowns with 2\" of soil, water thoroughly, and as stems grow, fill the trench with soil while leaving 3-4\" of the stems exposed.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ld_W ld_a bn bg-transparent dark-gray pa0 sans-serif mb3 lh-copy\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ld_Y\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ld_FS\"\u003einfo:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csvg fill=\"currentColor\" height=\"1em\" viewbox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"1em\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\"M7.4 7h1.2v4.5H7.4zm.6-.7a.9.9 0 1 0 0-1.8.9.9 0 0 0 0 1.8\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003cpath d=\"M8 15A7 7 0 1 0 8 1a7 7 0 0 0 0 14m0-1A6 6 0 1 1 8 2a6 6 0 0 1 0 12\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ld_X\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eIf the item details above aren't accurate or complete, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewe wan\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brands For Less USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51149153239273,"sku":"bflu14782","price":31.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/8483\/2489\/files\/Member_sMarkAsparagusMaryWashington_24pk8.jpg?v=1780659899","url":"https:\/\/www.usamegashop.com\/products\/members-mark-asparagus-mary-washington-24pk","provider":"USA Mega Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
