Careful site selection is essential for ginseng
cultivation.
Ginseng requires a freely-draining soil, low humidity and up to 65% shade. A
prolonged cold stratification period is essential for both shoot emergence and seed
germination in the spring, although low temperature requirements may be met artificially
by refrigeration of seed prior to sowing.
Keep your seed beds close in. Dont encourage large
roots, the market doesnt want that. This has to be a constant balance between the
commercial aspects of it so that we dont harvest our wild totally out of existence.
The whole purpose of publicizing the facts about the germination and stratification
processes that were using here is to be encouraged to be used through the industry
by the industry so that we can not only reestablish an endangered species into the natural
habitat within my lifetime, we can go on to make it universally available for its
medicinal purposes to the entire world.
If well go back out and plant
these seeds into the wild we will reestablish it in its natural environment, plus at the
same time promoting an overall good business structure for a cottage industry. A product
thats been in demand since its discovery in this part of the world in 1740. Ginseng
was One of the first cash crops exported out of the North American Hemisphere. Its
had an ongoing successful market and it will continue to have an ongoing successful
market. We have to raise a crop thats what the market is looking for, not only in
appearance, but also in potency.
To increase not only the germination factor but to create back to the original plant.
By placing these seeds in your refrigerator, youve created the same
environment as a naturally mild winter in its original habitat. Youre germination
yield should be extremely good. This a new way of handling these seeds to get some
germination out of it. Maintaining constant temperature, controlled environment, just
triggering its response about 6 weeks ahead of planting, 8 weeks ahead of planting, 10
weeks. We are packaging these seeds and have them available, whether theyre with us
or whether theyre with you, theyre already developing. At whatever stage that
you buy them from now until we put out the sold out sign.
Once we place these seeds into their plastic containers, we begin their pre-germination cycle, actually triggering these plants to germinate. Recommended about 4 weeks in pre-incubation period for fall planting, 8 to 10 weeks, 12 weeks for spring planting. Recommended period is approximately three months for spring planting. two months. well make that one balance. But from now until the first of March these seeds should be in the bags. Were plenty early yet so it wouldnt make any difference. Can be stored for 2 to 3 months. the longer the better, the embryo will develop slower and thus discouraging too rapid a growth which many times can cause the plants to grow out as they call it in the trade. They literally do their entire life cycle and just wither and die. This is where they havent had the proper incubation period prior to the spring planting. All of our seeds are packaged blended with sand prior to shipment.
