Asparagus from the home-garden is one of the 
most delicious of all vegetables. It is easily grown 
in any deep, rich soil, either from seed or roots. 
Culture. After soaking the seed in warm water for an hour, 
sow thinly in drills 12 inches apart early in the spring or fall. 
Cover 2 inches deep. When plants are well established, thin to 
about an inch apart and cultivate often. Transplant roots to 
permanent bed which has been dressed liberally with stable 
manure and a good fertilizer. Make trenches 4 inches deep and 
6 inches wide, and place the roots, crown up, 2 feet apart, being 
careful to spread them in a flat position. Make the rows 4 to 
6 feet apart. A bed 15 by 20 feet requires about 100 roots.
