Awesome. It only takes 2 a 3 years to establish a crop. Hope they don’t get too hungry until then. Mars is for morons. Even Martians don’t want to live there!

Yeah, asparagus doesn’t make as much sense as a much faster-producing food crop such as corn or beans. On Earth, we call them annuals, vs perennials for plants, such as asparagus, that continue to live and produce season after season after being established. (Not sure how plants on Mars would adapt to whatever growing seasons that planet offers.)
Didn’t Matt Damon’s character in “The Martian” grow potatoes to survive?
“Awesome. It only takes 2 a 3 years to establish a crop”
Yes but it is one of only a couple vegetables that reproduce year after year without replanting. This one can go for 20 years before dying off.
