Soil moisture stress in one year may negatively affect spear growth in the following year. We tested this hypothesis by applying soil water potentials (SWP) of -0.05, -0.3, or -0.5 MPa to asparagus plants and evaluated the effects of prior SWP history on bud size and spear growth assessed under ideal growing conditions. Total and viable bud numbers decreased linearly as SWP decreased. Although...
Although considered to be drought tolerant, asparagus has been shown to respond to supplemental irrigation. Asparagus plants were dried to soil water potentials (SWP) of -0.05, -0.3 or -0.5 MPa before irrigating during two seasons in a greenhouse. SWP were applied for four months and then crowns were stored to simulate dormancy. After storage, crown re-growth was assessed, followed by re-initiation...
