    Dear Charles

    I read in your book that you suggest planting asparagus in blocks. How wide should the bed be for a double or triple row?
    Would the centre of a triple row be too hard to reach from the sides?

    Many thanks in advance

    By a block, I meant having shorter rows beside each other, rather than on long row.
    Plant rows about 30in/75cm apart and crowns 18-24in/45-60cm.
    It looks wide when you start but not by year 4 and onwards.

    What would the benefit of shorter rows be – is there a link to the original thread?
