But if you are growing in pots, change the potting soil of pot and plant crowns.&nbsp;\n\n\n\nMost of the protection of your asparagus will be done by a small greenhouse, but still, you need to keep the slugs out of the greenhouse and take care of the moisture level of the soil.&nbsp;Do not harvest the first 2 years after planting.
