  • Thanks, for the information. I never heard of this, until last week. I live in a small town in PA and I know we have some in our area, so I am going to take my son and we are going to go find some. By reading the comments, I am learning how to plant the seeds uphill, too. That might be a good video, since the commenters are so rude, and they think that no one should ever be able to make money. You are replenishing as you go, that is wonderful. Thanks, again.

  • Thanks, man. I've been looking for a video that explains in simple terms how to find ginseng, and what to do with it. All the other videos I've tried have a lot of unnecessary talking, poor camera work, unclear instructions, or it seems like they're skipping important steps. It's like they're showing off more than teaching, or trying to keep parts of harvesting a secret. This video had none of that. Good stuff.

  • I watched quite a few different people hunting ginseng online... watching your video for some reason gave me a good perspective of the environment im looking for. Ive done plenty of research for a couple years now on the climate and environment the roots habitat is, but whenever i tried looking it was always in late fall, DIDN'T KNOW THEY TURNED GOLDEN in late fall! no wonder i never successfully identified them. Im going to hunt here in august and record the location while they still have berries then harvest when its the legal time. Anyone know a good app for recording coordinates without service or data? Also, everyone slowly digs the root out with a gardening shovel. I forget exactly what type of shovel your using, but that made digging it up so much easier... glad i got one, thanks for the tidbit of common sense i neglected to consider.

    • I've seen roots on one prongs bigger than four prongs. The digging laws, are just to keep the poor man down, laws, such as you can only dig from September 1st till December 31st, up north where l live, you're lucky to find any by mid October, they say this is in order to keep it from going extinct, which is a lie, the best way to keep it from going extinct is to let people to start digging in August, when the berries turn red, then the digger needs to take them uphill and plant them a couple of inches below the soil, wild turkeys and deer ( among other forest denizens ) are the biggest danger to the plants extinction, they eat the berries... No berries, no future plants. But, the laws in place, are to keep the poor, poor, if one can go out in the woods and make as much as an attorney or doctor, has to be stopped. There are plenty of places, deep in the woods, where no one has ever been ( perhaps some Indians ) that ginseng is thriving, if naturist want it to thrive in more abundant places, let the diggers get in there, before the animals eat the berries, then ginseng will never go extinct.

    • If you're using the root for personal use and not selling it there is a way to plant it back. If you will cut where the growth rings meet the root then the ring section can be planted back in the hole you just dug. Ginseng will have another nub like stem for the next season beside the stem that was up.
