Growing Vegetables Asparagus Fact Sheet Extension Planting asparagus. asparagus crowns are usually planted 12 inches apart in rows spaced five feet apart. dig a trench eight inches deep that is about four to six inches wide. lay the crows in the trench with the roots fanned out and buds pointing up. cover the crowns with a few inches of soil. Temperature: asparagus thrives in cool to warm climates, ideally between 50 85°f (10 29°c). water: provide consistent moisture, aiming for 1 1.5 inches of water per week during the growing season. sunlight: plant asparagus in a location that receives full sun exposure for at least 6 8 hours per day. Here’s a basic establishing harvesting schedule: year 1: plant 1 to 2 year old crowns and let all the spears that appear grow. year 2: add a layer of compost and maybe harvest a hand full of spears (if you have a large enough bed and if the spears are growing well) – err on the side of no harvest if you’re in doubt.
