Is there any need to water asparagus after I've stopped picking them? Just don't want to waste precious water if it's not necessary.
Once established I hardly water mine anyway and not at all after harvest.
like petera I never water mine
Never water mine, before or after I've stopped picking them.
No!!
Just heard on GQT that it's a good time to feed them now with a general fertiliser.
or give them a nice mulch with seaweed :)

The best possible mulch for Sparrow Grass and it deters the dreaded slugs....If your Sparrow Grass bed was prepared properly, there should never be a need to water...just a general feed then cut the stems back in a few months and put them to bed until next year's harvest....
