Wrapping up its first season, I think we're supposed to get a harvest starting year three.

good for getting a stick or two, or for growing seed asparagus, but asparagus gets big. real big.

Only if you let it go. If you're cutting it for eating, it only gets as big as you let it. (And if you let it grow past normal eating size, it won't be very good to eat.)

Yeah if you dont harvest it while its practically just emerged, you are just eating wood.
