Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before sowing to improve germination rates.

Sowing:

Timing: Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date or directly outdoors in early spring.
Depth: Plant seeds 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) deep in seed-starting trays or directly in garden beds.
Spacing: Space seeds 2 inches (5 cm) apart, thinning to 8-12 inches (20-30 cm) between plants once they are established.

Germination:

Temperature: Maintain soil temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C) for optimal germination.
Conditions: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Transplanting:

Timing: Transplant seedlings outdoors in early spring or fall, once they have 3-4 sets of leaves and the risk of frost has passed.
Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart in a prepared garden bed or large container.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist. Asparagus plants are drought-tolerant once established but will benefit from regular watering.
Weeding: Keep the bed free of weeds to prevent competition for nutrients and water.
Mulching: Apply mulch to help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Happy Gardening!
