i bought 12 dry root stock and six, 3 year old live asparagus plants . enough for the farm , but not a field full lol. start small. 18 plants will give a few shoots each year once established . more investment perennial plants for the farm is how i see it . 3 years time we will get a couple of shoots spare on each , and then we get more abundance after that year in year out for 40 years

5 litre hempy bucket using lechuza pon as substrate and food source. bit of a test experiment .
my auto pot system is soil based and lechuza pon the lower half of the pot like a mineral crust that the water passes through into the soil.
both experiments i'm using just phd water , and any signs of imbalance ,i will use ionic soil nutrients for corrections. one is more organo-mineral based , the other is more mineral based .
i have not used the lechuza pon mix substrate before . i bought it for house plants and for the autopot systems first base layers

i thought i arrived way ahead of schedule to a possible future project, that i was there to give a quote on saturday . i even said to the man i was meeting , ' good job i left at 8 am to beat the weekend rush ". and he laughed , raised his brows and said' yes ,' i thought i had arrived at 8.45 , in fact i arrived at 9.45 .

Carxofa de Benicarló is the variety grown in all coastal towns of my province. These are not tall at all, plants stay squat. They are delicious. I make them in the oven with only garlic, lemon and olive oil, they don't need anythng els.e

When the season is over, sometimes some fields are not harvested, and the artichokes bloom and make these beautiful purple flowers. Well the flowers are the artichokes themselves I guess.
