| I've been growing vegetables for about 8 years and have been really wanting to grow asparagus.
Because I rent and have limited space, I have been able to control myself and have not planted it.
So, even though I might be able to find some space in the ground, I would prefer to plant in a container.
Has anyone here done this?
Even if it is just a few spears (three years from now!!!) |

| Hi, i have asparagus in containers, i use 55gal barrels cut out in half. I had them in a regular pot and when i repoted them in to the 1/2 barrel i noticed how big the roots system is on these plants, so i think they need a lot of room to grow. So i ended up with 2 plants in one barrel and 1 more in another one. I still need to repot one more i have in a 12" pot. I have cut some spears already since the repot. Let us know what you end up doing. |
