Asparagus question

10 years ago

I planted asparagus from dry root early this spring. Following instructions, I didn't harvest anything the first year. Now, they are now growing HUGE and look super healthy, with ferns growing every which way.

I'm wondering what my next steps are. How do I get from now (Fall) to harvest next year (Spring). Do I need to prune them at any point? Do I fertilize in preparation for harvest? Will new spears grow out of the ground?

Just looking for information for an asparagus rookie!
Thanks!
