i have some asparagus plants i grew from seed over summer. having finally
decided where to put them, does anyone have any thoughts whether it would
be better to do it now, or to wait until spring? (i have heard both). i was
going to wait until spring.


Since they crop in Spring, you need to move them between now and about mid
winter. I don't imagine you'd get much from them next Spring at such a
young age - perhaps enough to taste fresh very young tips - then don't
harvest any more till they have had a chace to grow on for another year.
