.11 L.JI'. J.m THURSDAY, APRIL 8, 1954 TOE NEWS-JOURNAL PAGE SEVEN GARDEN TIME Now that fresh asparagus li ap pearing in the grocery stores, we are beginning to receive inquiries about growing this crop. Can asparagus be grown successfully In North Carolina? Yes, it can. When should it be planted? In the eastern part of the state it is Cest to plant in November or De cember, but may be planted in February or March. In the west ern part of the state it is prob ably best to plant in March or April. Although' asparagus is original ly started from seed, the gardener or small grower usually buys one year old crowns for setting. These may be obtained from any large seed store or asparagus grower. Fifty crowns should provide plenty of fresh asparagus for the , average family. The Mary Wash ington variety is recommended. Asparagus is a perennial crop and should be productive for more than ten years if given good care. Because it is a perennial crop, grass and weeds may be a prob lem - especially if you have Ber muda grass in the garden. There fore, thorough preparation is ne cessary before planting. The crowns are set about 18 inches apart in a board furrow or trench 6 to 8 inches deep. The fleshy roots are spread out at the bottom of the trench with the buds up and covered with soil to a depth of 3 to 4 inches. When the spears come through this soil the rest of the trench may be filled. If the soil is sandy, the entire trench may be filled at planting time. If fer tilizer is used it should be thor oughly mixed with the soil at the bottom of trench at least a week before planting. Well rotted stable manure would also be desirable as a fertilizer. Asparagus should not be cut at all until a year after planting and then only lightly. The second year the harvest may be unlimit ed. The cutting season will extend about 8 weeks. The bed or row should be thoroughly worked each spring before the spears appear.
