This is my 11 crown Asparagus bed. I am carefully recording the harvest over the next month. So far there has been three cuttings of 1/2 pound, two of one pound. The Spring has been cold which probably slows growth somewhat. At the present time it I steam cooked and garnished with butter.

First of the season asparagus was harvested. One half pound was cut. The bed is permanent about 8 feet by 5 feet, and was planted with 11 crowns of Guelph Millennium about 8 years ago. It will produce harvestable shoots around 12 pounds over about 4 weeks.
