It was bigger around than my thumb, but only about an inch long. 

Thank you.

General Ginseng Discussion / Clay soil?
« on: October 01, 2013, 08:07:37 AM »
I dug some ginseng this weekend that had very short roots...like tiny onions or radishes that were packed into hard soil.  I think it's because of the clay content where I was.  The roots were only about an inch long.  I put him back, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me about this?  Is that a good place to grow ginseng?  Was it a young plant?  Will it eventually get long? If not, will the smaller root still have value at 10 years old?

Wild Simulated Ginseng / Forest Land

I've recently inherited about 40 acres of hilly forest which won't be good for much except maybe hunting leases, and I was thinking of sowing some ginseng and checking it out in a decade.

Problem is that I sort of inherited a ridge.  On the Southwest side. 

Should I even bother?  I was reading that ginseng should be on the southeast?
