I’m on the Sunshine Coast Qld. It’s autumn now so do I cut back my asparagus plant now. It’s starting to die off but still sending spears up. Thanks

Leave until late August to cut back, then fertilise, compost and water. Stop watering in the next month.

I stop watering at the end of April and just leave it. I cut back the end of August and apply fertiliser then water and 4-6 (??)
