Thats my problem. And I am stuck in Missouri and my patches of  asparagus and super secret mushroom spots are going to get poached. Rats .My fault, I shared with "friends".

                   Shroom Patches still top secret. Way off the road and mostly on private ground. I have seen others looking in a couple places for years I have not investigated. May have to put on my ghillie suit and head out on a recon mission to investigate.  Now it is really hard being stealthy looking in fencerows along the roads in Asparagus spots. Pat and I usually tag team those spots. One driving and the other jumps out to look while the driver watches the road for traffic. Its like hurry up and get back in someone's coming. .

Used to find a lot of asparagus and morels along the railroad right of way. Wife, Susie'e grandma had a couple beds on the old family place years ago also. We would also stop along the highway and pick asparagus off and on. I pretty much quit that being allergic to poison ivy and dealing with it. Cheaper to buy it in the stores and not have all the itching and ivy dry or calamine lotion.

I had a place on one of my farms pick gallon of Mushrooms each day. Come home one day neighbors across the highway was over there picking my Mushrooms. Told them what I thought!

They stole my Dogs too.

Had a guy needing money. Asked me if I bought his Boat would I take him to my fishing spot? Suuure!

Ok I cleaned my Asparagus off and put sRock Salt on it so we shall see.

The Salt actually came from a Mine I had been in.

I need to salt mine again. 4h fescue clumps there have been quite salt tolerant over the years!

Heck I just leave it until March and then mow it down to the ground and salt the crap out of it to kill back the grass.

@MOPanfisher, OK talk too me about this and the theory? or....known practice?.. Never heard of this..... too tired to google and talking with friends about gardening is better than politics!

Exactly what I said.  Been doing it for years.  salt and fertilizer

Great I put Salt on my Asparagus, Deer liked it now they found they like Asparagus.

Maybe this is short lived.

Deer are the only problem I have had with salting asparagus. They do like it.
