Thinking of making an asparagus bed at my lot.   I have 2 crowns on the go that are about 2 years old now but would like to extend the patch, should I plant now or prepare and plant in april? The bit of space I have has potatoes in it at the moment but they need to come out, will this spot be ok? also should i plant them in rows or blocks?

Blimey - that's the politest thing you've ever called Munty!

Shazza - if you're willing to wait 3 years to build your bed up, I have any amount of seed I can pass on. PM me if you'd like some.

For those that already have requested the seed they should be on their way soon.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
