Just wondered if anyone had ever grown aspargus in the greenhouse. I dont know wether it would get to hot for it to grow properly or not? Any advise?

aspargus in greenhouse

Never came across anyone growing it in there greenhouse but one of our old gardeners used to grow it in a cold frame, his only reason for growing it this way was that he could get on with his allotment and didn't have to bother about treading on it as it was out of the way and if any really bad weather was to come along he could put covers on it apart from that i dont know how it would get on in a greenhouse.Dave

?

I started some seeds of in the greenhouse last year and to be honest they didn't really do anything so I left them in the tray and forgot about them, when I was getting my greenhouse ready to start planting this year, on examining the pots I found tiny little spears of aspargus lol absolutely perfect just miniscule lol.
There were 8 so I'm busy preparing somewhere for them to go lol.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help
