Dividing Asparagus Crowns

[@hal7ter]

None of the other videos on youtube pertaining to asparagus show how asparagus grows - never mentioning that one can divide it like that. Thank you!

[@gawain8000]

Brilliant! Thank you so much!

Very helpful clip, thank you

[@motleydigger]

Very helpful thank you. Can you plant a root that has come off the crowns during division?

[@motleydigger]

We have heavy clay in parts of our yard up by where the house was rebuilt.

The static was very loud in this video, but good informative video made it worth it

Is it really his stuff I thought it was my Bluetooth radio

If a 20 year old crown is divided does that rejuvenate the plant?

[@GainSolarPower]

What happens if you transplant in April. The crowns aren’t up out of the soil yet

[@kennethlemay5283]

I agree with the last comment thank you good stuff

I was wondering if you are doing this in the Spring or Fall? Thanks for the detailed video. I didn’t think I could bury those crowns like that.

It looks like he’s doing it in fall or winter. I’ve done this in the middle of summer and did fine. Found a patch of wild asparagus that was going to get mowed down. Dig up the crowns and put in bucket of water for a few days. Planted them around late June. Kept the planted area wet and had some speers pop up in a week. Now they are fern like.

Is there by any means you can be reached ?

Hello I hope to find answer here from someone. Google search no luck. I transplanted asparagus and there are a lot of individual root pieces laying around and in the soil, root without crowns, a 6 inch root section. Will these root pieces continue to produce?

[@mezleona]

No they will not give you another plant, you need a crown, when you dig them up you will see the crown and roots intertwine.

I bought a little root only and it popped up within 2 weeks!

[@nutsarasangatongthat4726]

Thank you so much this is what I want to know.

[@VEScott]

We are moving out of a home where we grow asparagus, but they are actively growing. Will it hurt them to transplant now?

[@Doktracy]

Wear eye protection when cutting the asparagus. I got a severe corneal laceration one year while pruning asparagus.

[@hawaiib8]

can we not use leave cause in hawaii no more winter is compost mix with potting soil is enough to start the sprouts
