I was planting some left over seeds today. Theres still snow in the woods but the hilltops are finally clear. I was planting a little knoll , abut two acres and I noticed something. It's lightly wooded , young trees , growing in abandoned farmland that was probably forested before that. I started planting from the south slope and noted large clumps of moss and a very hard soil with little loam but good shade. I planted it lightly in the moss and out ( for a control) and as i rounded the north side and immediately noticed much deeper loam. The north would be the lee side of the hill and all the leaf litter would end up there. Could this be factor in the old myth that ginseng is found on the north side of the hill? I imagine this would depend on the particle geography in question. I am a newb and still haven't had time to hunt any wild sang but with help of BC 's i got about a half acre planted last year. Can't wait to see them popping up. We had a nice 3' blanket of snow/ice over em to keen them warm. Had a few grinners left over so I wanted to get them in. I made a stratification box and wintered them over. Brads book was invaluable , thanks

Thanks for the kind words Timbo.
Most generally, the northeast sides of hills will have favorable conditions for ginseng. However, I've found more ginseng on southeastern exposures which had enough shade and air to keep it cool.
I think you are on to something there with the depth of the loam. It makes sense that in that area it would be better on the leeward side of the hill. I have to think that not every northeast slope is going to be the lee side, however.
Keep us informed, this is a very good observation.

With favorable growing conditions, (north/ northeast {dependent on hemisphere}) I would imagine it would have a greater chance to survive, with that a greater chance to reproduce, and with that a greater chance for the species as a whole to survive predators (man) and disease.

In reality, recent research has shown that deer are much greater preditors of ginseng than man. Go figure.
