Planting Woods Grown
"Glacial Gold" Ginseng
Seeds Commercially
by Michael Hunter
"Fall of 97"
The first thing that you are going to look at as a businessman is what kind of a return
can I expect out of my money? If a pound of "Glacial Gold"
ginseng seeds cost me $89.95 (US) and I can expect 35 pounds of ginseng roots
back at the end of seven years. Well in today's market, that would be about
$6,300 (US).
Now if you're doing this on a reasonable scale, you could get some pretty serious money
involved. Now when they are commercially growing ginseng seeds, they are planting it any
where from 110 lbs. to 125 lbs. per acre. Well, their yield back isn't all that good, but
they look at it from the point that they don't have to pay for their seeds. They're going
to replant the same seeds, then they wonder why the product that they're growing only
brings eighteen dollars per pound.
The sensible way to do this, depending on the acreage you have to work with, is start with
fifty pounds of dual strain "Glacial Gold" ginseng
seed and grow your own ginseng seeds. If you buy rootlets, you'll be producing your own
ginseng seeds next year. These are business type decisions that the individuals have to
make for their own selves. Work with your consultants, look at what you are trying to
achieve here. The equipment that I am using for planting this, which I will try and show
you over the next few pages, isn't really big expensive equipment. I use that little 1952
Ford tractor of mine, I paid $2,500 (US) for it. I paid $450 (US) for the disk that is
behind it. That's an extremely efficient way to make beds. Now the seeder, that got
expensive, that cost $1,700 (US). But you get a real nice, uniform distribution of your
seed with it. This season I'm going to put the seeder right up on top of the disk. I think
that I will get a better seed bed, that disk rides pretty high and pretty light. Then I
could actually be disking and planting at the same time, and the seeder doubles up as a
fertilizer. You can regulate the flow to it to accommodate literally any size seeds or any
size of dry type material.

At any rate, lay your woods out, figure your light, keep your
southwest corner real well shaded. These plants don't like to get real warm in the
afternoons. Once you've got your beds in, and laid out, about two weeks prior to planting,
you want to treat your rows with Round Up and literally kill back the vegetation in there.
At the same time, you want to treat for slugs. We had an El Nino last year and this caused
a slug manifestation that just was totally unrealistic. The slugs work just below the
surface. They can be handled with numerous pesticide controls. If you don't want to go
that route with them, you can actually trap them out through the course of your planting
season, if you take and put some squares of aluminum or a lightweight sheet metal,
anything along those lines. Lay it down on the surface of the beds, and the slugs will be
drawn to the metal and adhere themselves to the bottom of it. You can just walk through
your beds and pick up your pieces of metal, scrape the slugs off into a bucket, but if you
don't handle those slugs, they will eat your crops up, believe me, I had them eat up a 500
lb. bed on me last season. That was expensive.
Starting At $49.95 (US)

Anyway, growing ginseng is kind of like playing high stakes
poker. You always seem to come up with one of two things; a busted flush or a royal flush.
Ginseng seems to be the same way, you have to make it big or you don't make it at all. It
takes some nerve. It's going to take a lot of effort on our grower's part to bring our
crop number 70 up to where we're growing it on a compatible level with corn. Now all of
the" Glacial Gold" ginseng seeds that my company is selling, we keep track of
everything. Even the soil that it came out of, to have an idea what the pH level was.
I don't believe that some of the farmers have checked their soil
in their woods in eighty or ninety years. If they have checked it, "why if it's that
way one place on our 500 acre farm, I guess it's the same on the rest". You can buy
soil testing kits at your local farm supply store. Do your research, read some good books,
and what-have-you.
The balancing of the light is very important. Ginseng has to
have at least 4 hours of direct, slightly oscillating light, and as the days get longer,
it needs more shade. Some of the things that you can look at as you're utilizing more and
more of your acreage, as you get over towards the west or southwest side, put some
artificial shade up, if needed. If you have some areas in the woods that need shade, just
erect some posts, take some baling twine and tie some cross members. Then lay some brush
up over these more open areas. An abundance of material is available right there in your
woods that can be used for this type of thing. Your forestry consultants will show you the
type of thinning that should be being done in your woods. Proper thinning needs to be done
to produce a really good crop of timber and ginseng.
