Asparagus

Just wondering who picks and when you start picking. For some great reason I get a kick out of it. Last year was more of a learning opportunity and I was fairly discouraged. However, I stuck with it and managed to map out/mark on a GPS over 300 areas with plants on different road around my house...Hoping this is the ticket.

Been looking around my area and only finding a few. Really think we need some rain as my garden is really dry. Most of the stalks I've been getting are nice and thick.
