This is the first year to cut my asparagus (finally!) and the first of my spears are already out of the ground.
I've read that you start cutting spears in april, but two spears are already 5 inches tall. Should I cut them now or wait until april when cutting will start in earnest? I don't want them to grow too big too early and stop further spears from sprouting. |

I recommend you cut one, cook it, eat it, and decide. |
