Linda1 Topic Author Offline Fresh Boarder Posts: 10	Thanks Latt, this is on our land in update NY. What do you think the chances are ginseng growing on the property or the possibility of planting ginseng seeds or roots here? Any info is greatly appreciated.

I don't think it would hurt you to invest in some seed and or rootlets and put in some test plots. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

Thanks Hobler for the info. I was going to order a soil testing kit from the local County Extension office to test the PH,Phosphorus and calcium levels. Do you think that will be necessary? The picture above shows a little of what is growing out there. We are in the North East.

Thanks again for your assistance.

Hobler666shang Offline Moderator Posts: 1070	Linda A lot of the growers here would say yes to do so. I didn't do it do to I had wild shang growing on my land n lots of companion plants growing already with a nice deep dark soil . it won't hurt to do so though.
