Asparagus Update

I planted asparagus seeds on 2/21/13.  I watered daily and waited.  And waited and waited and waited.  I had all but given up hope.  Tonight I bent down to take a look at the little weed seeds that were growing (hoping they were somehow asparagus) and that's when I saw three of the tiniest asparagus seedlings growing.  The are, naturally, nearly impossible to see, so there may be more that I've overlooked.  From 2/21 - 3/20, a LONG month of waiting, and my patience has finally paid off.  I only planted 10 seeds to begin with, so here's hoping the germination of the remaining seeds is successful so I can grow my absolute favorite vegetable!
