VEGETA 
ASPARAGUS 
1 oz. to 100 ft., 4 Ibs. per acre. 
When starting an asparagus bed from 
seed it is advisable to soak the seed for 
24 hours before planting. This makes 
germination more rapid and certain. Sow 
in spring in rows about 18 inches apart, 
allowing 15 to 20 seeds to the foot. Cover 
with 2 inches of soil. The plants will be 
ready to set in a permanent bed the fol- 
lowing spring.
