Tom,
Sorry for not understanding the sarcasm in your original post. Price/value is in the eye of the beholder. I believe some folks would see value in the added expense for an earlier, full season harvest. You claim there is no difference in years to full harvest growing from crowns, vs seeds, this is contrary to all I've read and experienced. Can you provide any additional info? From my experience I've had seed drift over the garden, and yes we've had baby asparagus growing everywhere, but they were years away from being edible. Quote:

When harvesting my "Purple Pacific i do the usual and pick the entire crop,come summer and autumn i let the plant grow to full size but you can can still lighty harvest all the way through to winter
Purple Pacific is a new variety developed here in New Zealand recently,its much sweeter than the green varieties that i have always grown,i`ve always been a grower of heirloom varieties but i`ve had to concede that this one leaves them all for dead. |
