Lenno the editors made a mistake in the root that Caleb found and the actual root that I was mailing out that day they where two different roots. The root that Caleb found was very nice and if I remember correctly it weighed 4 1/2 ounces a true monster and worthy of Caleb's dream root that he had dreamed of since he was 11 and told me he had to find Bartholomew LoL he's a sight man, but he nicknamed it and never did give up on it I was very tickled for him that day. On the show they translated that root into a 10 ounce root worth $1k and that was not correct.
I am very happy with the way that the editors kept the true ginseng hunting spirit in the show and the right representation of Mountain people that dig and the actual footage of the terrain and digs are great. I am even more happy with the way that they kept the prayers and the lord in it because that is a large part of the family's life and is important to us.
However I have saw several editing errors in the 4 shows that we have appeared in. It always has to do with the prices, And as I said above that was two different roots. Both where awesome roots. The other one was 7 3/4 ounces, but neither was 10 ounces. Stuff like that I have caught.
If we do a season two I will certainly make sure that is corrected as well because other than that I realy like what it has brought out concerning stewardship and true love for our beloved root and the great Mountains of the Lord.
