hi kim, thanks for contacting. we’ve already given these a good start, seems like you could plant them out, work them up, and harvest the first time in the spring of 2025. richo

I see the 12 inch spacing. If I were to plant these outside soon, and water well, then would that be suitable? thanks

Hi Edna,
Asparagus is not know for spreading–it is a clumper. As a perennial, the seeds may be planted any time and the seedlings worked up. Yes, bareroots are usually planted in the spring but aerial plants may be planted anytime. Don’t plant too late in the fall, they might not have time to dig in before the winter. I very rarely recommend heat mats–they tend to bake the soil, bake the seeds, and the majority of complaints I get on nongermination include the information that the person has used heat mats. Heat comes down from the sun, not up from underneath the roots. Heat mats are fatal to many plantings.
