    The last of the asparagus was cut from the 4 by 8 bed and it was prepared for production in 2019. Th surface weeds were removed. A bit of 20 20 20 pellet fertilized was sprinkled. The bed was covered in a 3 inch layer of mulch. The growth will be ferns, which will be cut late Fall when they turn color yellow. This little bed produced 5748 grams or 12.67 pounds from May 4 to 27 May.
