Our
ginseng is growing in woods and really is just like wild ginseng.
The market for wild ginseng
last December went to $450 a pound and in the Ozarks wild ginseng is almost extinct.
The time for
growing ginseng is now, even on a small scale, to help this endangered species from being
extinct!
GINSENG GROWING CONDITIONS:
It is very important to have the right condition to grow ginseng
successfully.
Ginseng needs 75% to 85% shade. It will not grow in full sun.
Plant ginseng in
good woods dirt and mulch and add some lime and rock phosphate in ginseng beds.
Do not over
fertilize. A good profit can be had with an acre of ginseng producing $75,000 to $100,000 per
acre in 4 to 7 years.
Ginseng looks like a strawberry plant first year and only has three
leaves.
In the second year ginseng should have five leaves and some will develop a second
prong.
The third year ginseng should produce seed.
The older a ginseng plant gets the more seed
the plant will produce.
