TOPIC: Mississippi Ginseng

I just joined yesterday... Are there any other ginseng hunters, growers, or buyers from Mississippi on here?

Hmmmm... I must be the only one!

Mississippi..

I don't recall any others posting here from Mississippi.

I am from southern middle TN and most of the time I am the most southern one posting regular.

Occasionally someone will post form Alabama, but I don't recall a Mississippi poster.

Welcome to the board.

I bet your seng is up down there first week in march (if you plant stratified seed).

Here at my place I find a few 3 leafers up right around March 20 every year. Sometimes alittle earlier.

I am over in N. GA and thought I was the most southern grower. First I heard of from MS.

You guys have the deep south award! Welcome to the forum!

This has been a good growing year here in GA with all the rain and cooler temperatures. Also, had a high rate of success with newly emerging plants.

I'm 125 miles south of the Tennessee State line... I planted some seeds the first week of February and some of them were up by the first week of March. The wild plants didn't come up until about the first week of April.

Hello Mississippi, I joined yesterday. I am at the border of the Delta. Would love to hear from anyone that may have knowledge of seng being grown this far South or if it is even feasible.

What county are you in? I'm in Choctaw County and it occurs naturally here. I planted some wild simulated this past spring. It'll be interesting to see how much of it survived the drought we had in late summer.

I'd be interested in how much naturally occurring 'Sang you know of there! Please keep us posted on your growing there in the Deep South....
