TOPIC: last years haul

had a good year last year ,hope to do this good again this year.....

wow,how much did you have there? looks like at least 20 dry pounds. good job.

10 pounds 14 ounces

I thought it looked like more. I sold almost an entire grocery bag full last year and it weighed about 9 pounds.
I'm hoping this will be a good year for the wild. been out looking for a couple of months now and I have a lot of places to go when the season finally opens in Indiana.
Good luck to you. Let's hope we get a good price this year.

good luck to you this year ,i'v been scouting too.got a couple of spots located..i'm over here in ILL....45 min.'s west of terre haute...

I'm in Indiana just north of Louisville, Ky. Was up north of Terre Haute last year to hunt sang in a place called Westville. We didn't do so good up there, I think we had a bad spot.
Just judging by what I've already seen growing this year it's going to be pretty easy to come up with 10 dry pounds. I found a hillside with over 300 plants on it. Found another area where it's growing in big patches... I counted 32 three prongers in the largest patch.
I mark all the places with a handheld gps so I can go back and find it once the season opens. Southern Indiana is great for ginseng.

i carry a gps with me all the time. no guess work that way..
