My definition of an optimist is my friend who planted asparagus in her garden when she was 90. But now at age 92, she sure does enjoy her home-grown asparagus. 😃
+Laurie McLean
Bless her heart!!
Oh my goodness. I planted my asparagus upside down. Your video may have saved 9 plants. I did not read the directions or look at the diagram. Then I came across your video the next day. They are now soaking overnight in spring water and will have a better chance to grow when I plant them tomorrow. . Thanks so much. hahaha.
I don't have ads on my videos either. Hate ads.
Nice lesson about growing asparagus.
+Another Amateur

I followed your instructions on growing asparagus in pots last year. bought 2-year roots and of course didn't expect much last year, but this year I already have nice size sprouts popping up in Jan 16, 2023! I plan to move them to a raised bed next year. Thanks so much!
Excellent
Thank you for all the details you put in your videos for newbies!
+Maureen Shroba
You are very welcome! Thank you so much for watching. Your thumb gets greener every time I hear from you👍👍
Such good information! As a gardener whom has started into gardening again, I appreciate every bit of help I can get. I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Our summers are very short! Thank you for your wise advice.
Glad it was helpful!
I love your videos. I am learning so much & am so glad I found your channel.
In 2 years, I buy my own land and build my house and will start growing some of the plants you have shown.
This is the next plant that I want to begin. Thank you and God Bless!
+angela lowe

Welcome to the family!! Got lots of new videos coming out 👍
You Sir...are a very good teacher.
Wow...I have already liked you just by listening to your introduction. This is very informative.
Thanks and welcome
Thank you both! Love your channel
Your video found me today, and your down to earth teaching has earned a new subscriber. 🙏 I live in Johannesburg, and have just ordered some asparagus plants. I realise the 2.... 🤦♀️ Are not going to be sufficient. I have a half acre, so I will look for some of those large pots and put them up on wooden slats. I will have to order more plants. Thanks again for the great video, many blessings to you both 🙏
I'm loving your video Sir thank you!
Love your videos! trying this out this year and this was very helpful! thank you!
I am growing small carrots in 10 inch containers with my own compost this year. Very nice presentation. Thank you for the useful info.
Stumbled across your channel while trying to learn all I can about growing asparagus. I really enjoyed your video and how easy you made it. Thank you!!
+Patty Haber
Stay tuned Patty, we are doing a follow up video on the care of the plants after planting. It will be released very soon. Thanks for watching and enjoy your asparagus. Have a blessed weekend😍

+Kellie Burnett
Thank you Kellie!! We all learn from each other. Keep your eyes peeled for Part 2 of this video. It will be released very soon. Thanks for being a part of our RUclips Channel Family😍😍😍
Fresh asparagus is so delicious. I grow it in containers as well. 🤗🌱👍
Great to hear you grow in containers! Can I ask how old your asparagus plants are and if you have had any problems over the years? I would really like to try my luck growing asparagus, however, i don't really want to use up any of my garden bed space.
Hollis, you have a wealth of knowledge about gardening. I know I am a Geek, but I'm learning. Thakx
+Robert Sine
We all were beginners at some time Robert. Enjoy each day in the garden and learn a little more each day. Enjoy the journey
Cool Hollis and Nancy second year of two year crowns coming up next year.Thanx for the ongoing advice for next year. UK
+Gareth Howell
Awesome!! Enjoy your spears👍👍👍 Have a peaceful week 😇
Of course you could pull them out of the containers after 2-3 years andmake a hole in the ground for them, couldn't you?! The reason i've done containers is due to little success the prvious year in the ground or with plugs. Now I'm making progess with containers.
+Gareth Howell
Yes. After a few years in the containers you should harvest the crowns and plant them in a permanent raised bed. They will last twenty years of so in the ground. They will last two to three years in containers 👍
Anyone ever tell you that your a natrual born teacher? Great video! Your excellent at explaining things.
Thank you! 😃
Awesome instructional video. It was extremely helpful to me. May all of Our Lord's Blessings be yours.
+Van Gray
Thank you so much 😇😇😇😇

Wonderful videos! I have learned sooo much from you all. We live in Central Texas- and I am having difficulty-- how on Earth you manage to be so successful in your northern climate is beyond me! Please keep up the documentation!

+ThePepperspraydepot
Thank you so much!! Enjoy your beautiful weekend😍😍🐶
Awh! Awesome! I'm not super religious, but you guys are really very cute. I've always wanted to grow my own food and he explains it very well. How you've accomplished your dream is very inspiring to me. You've got yourself a new subscriber! Hugs from Florida.
Chela Bell smiling ..... you don’t have to be “super religious” just enough faith the size of a mustard seed is all ya need and just like this asparagus video says you will grow closer and closer larger and lager and before you know it in a year you will see tremendous growth and then every year after that you will be blossoming like asparagus lol... see once the seed is planted God does the rest. I’m gonna try this asparagus this season... not sure if I’m gonna do in pots or ground yet. I loved this video...
Love that little dog
Spoiled rotten and deserve to be spoiled.
loved your asparagus video. going to transplant my plants into big, big pots. Cant wait.
+Joan Sweeney
They do best in the ground. I am only growing these in containers to demonstrate the method for folks that don't have a space in their yard to grow these. Containers for asparagus is not the norm. Suggest you leave your plants as is😍
love your vids, lots of good stuff, keep it up and God Bless
Thanks for watching, have a blessed day!
I so love watching everything you guys do to make your own garden in a city lifestyle. I myself am in S. Baltimore and not to much room to do much but there is a small back yard. Containers are awesome!!! Thank you for your shows.
+Maria Cannenta
You can grow a tremendous amount of food in containers. Give it a try👍
I am big on making pickles so that is my next adventure. We have rodents so the idea of off the ground is exactly what I am looking for.
+Maria Cannenta
Best of luck to you with your cucumbers 👍
I love this channel!!!
God bless you Samantha 👍
Thanks for the video. Very informative.

It will be worth the wait
Thanks for the info on phosphorous - I just put some on my asparagus (their first year - bought as small plants). Sydney, Australia :)
+Carol Ann
You are welcome! Thanks for watching, best of luck to you with your asparagus!
Hollis & Nancy's Homestead they are older now. I haven’t been harvesting, just letting them grow. It’s almost autumn so when they die back I will cut the ferns at ground level. Can you tell me how to fertilise over winter and in the growing season please :)
Your subscribers are increasing. I'm so happy because I love your channel. Beautiful gardens!!! I'm still going to build my table like you did. oh and bake him that strawberry pie. :)
+Bean Counter Urban Farm
Thank you so much! Channel is slowly growing with such nice people. We call them family. The grow tables are the way to go on a urban homestead, easy to work with and keeps the neighbors from complaining. Looking forward to that strawberry pie😀. Nancy is going to do a video on that when they come in. Thanks for watching, have a blessed day😇
Thank you for these videos! I'm going to try my hand at growing Asparagus in 5-gallon pails. (I live in an apartment near Charleston, SC, & have to be able to move the containers when the apartments are being pressure washed each year!) I'll let you know what happens!!
Thank u! One of the few vegetables my son will eat.
+Mary Barsaloux

Has impeccable taste!
Greetings from Puerto Rico and may the Lord bless you 🙏 I recently bought some crowns from eBay, unfortunately they arrive very dry and full of mold. Since I am new at this here I place 10 of them in just one container about the size of yours. So far I am seeing just 2 of them coming up. I wish I had See your video before. I subscribed to your channel and hope to see your results soon.

Love you job

+Galuh Keith
Thank you so much! Have a blessed day😇
Awesome
Great information, thanks.
+Pudle Luvr
Thanks for watching. Have a peaceful weekend😍😍🐶
Please don't ever leave Virginia Nancy & Hollis because I'm in Zone 7b Maryland. And we are looking forward to seeing what to grow in WINTER! How do urban container gardeners grow food? What to grow? DIY Greenhouse or Cold Frame
+Parental WowWow
We will be moving to Florida at the end of the year. We are currently in Zone 8-A and we will be moving to Zone 8-B. Our videos will still help you ❤️
I just wanted to tell you guys that you guys are the best!!! I love watching your videos, and I'm learning so much. Did I here right a few videos back you guys are moving to Florida? I live in central Florida. Again thank you guys soooooo much, God Bless! !!
+Darleene Newton
Thank you Darleene for your words of encouragement!!😀 We are so glad to have you as a subscriber to our channel, welcome to the family. Yes you heard right, me and Nancy are striving to move to your neck of the woods in a couple of years. I was born and raised in Jacksonville and all my family still lives there. We want to move somewhere between Gainesville and Green Cove Springs to a rural homestead. We will be close to family and we can have chickens, turkeys, rabbits and a couple of pigs and of course lots of garden space!!! Thanks again for watching and tagging along with us on our journey from our urban homestead to our rural homestead. We are looking forward to making many videos at the rural homestead. Have a blessed day😇
Although we live in a small English village, you seem our kind of people.
I've never grown asparagus as we are limited for space and usually grow staple grub.
Thanks
I just love your videos. Thanks for sharing this knowledge. I'm growing asparagus in Florida, 9b. The fronds remained green all 12 months. Should I cut them back?
Blessings! Awesome videos!!! Could you cut the bottoms of the containers out in year two and drop them in a permanent spot? I would hate to see die off! My family LOVES Asparagus and Brussel Sprouts :)
So I don't know you, but when am I coming over for dinner? Hehehe. Everything looks so amazing and delicious! God bless you in all of your endeavors!
+mstiegra
😍😍😍. Thank you so much 👍
Thanks for talking me outta growing container asparagus. Can't go with large space demands and low productivity.
Excellent information! Thank you 😊. I love asparagus. My entire back yard faces north. I get sun all day. Where do I get those big tubs from? God Bless you 🙏🏾
You creating that shape in the bucket started to remind me of the mashed potatoes in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
That is a good comparison
Howdy from Newport News :-)...
Hi!
i'm digging a 2 x 8 section and filling it with compost and native soil and going to plant 10 crowns in there, i've got rocky clay soil so I hope they get established enough with the compost to be able to continue growing
I love your ideas because that's exactly what I want to do in my house! All your does are fabulous!
+Alba Zamora
Thank you so much!!! 👍
I know I'm late to the party, but it might be worth checking out "Rootmaker" pots. I'm experimenting with them rn for fruit trees and asapragus
Hey Y'all!! Really looking forward to all your new videos this year!
Quick question. Since you're establishing your new homestead in FL have you started a new asparagus patch? If so, are you using 2 yr old crowns again? If so, where did you get your crowns? I bought my last crowns (7 Jersey Knights, 7 Mary Washington's, 14 Purple Passion) from Tractor Supply & only about half came up. I just re-watched your asparagus series so I have some work to do. I'm growing mine in-ground not in buckets but still I LOVE how educational your videos are! You've taught me so much!!
Hi Tami! Lots of new videos coming this year to you. I think you will get a kick out of them❤️. I am starting to work on building my raised bed frames in a few months. I plan to build a permanent raised bed for asparagus. I will start with at least two year old crowns. 👍
Thanx

good info
+Audrey Daigle
Thank you! Asparagus is very healthy for you . Thanks for watching, have a blessed day.
Subscribing from Hampton.
For root growth you can use Rock Phosphate.
they grow massive roots . the runner where the shoots grow. There pretty easy to grow, need med watering
We use Molasses buckets from the Ranches. Nice and free.
Always informative. Thanks for the information. So asparagus is a lot of years work with not very much yield. Not suitable for my small urban garden then...
Each year you will get a little more yield because the root system spreads
I like your video
:-)
Thanks for the informative video! Has anyone here had any luck growing asparagus in fabric pots/air pruning pots? I live in a climate which reaches -2°C or 28°F during winter and was just wondering if this would work?
Thanks for your comment!
