We sell to a local guy. he has a permit to buy it. He then resells
it in bulk to another company or person. By him paying us $800.00 a
pound you know he has to make more than that. oh my husband said to
let you know that ginseng can be grown from the root, not just from
seed. He also said there is a difference in price for ginseng you
grow and wild ginseng. The buyers here pay more for wild ginseng.
they can tell the difference by the color. Wild ginseng is darker.
have you checked out google.com there is alot of info on ginseng
there. from best growing tips to telling the age of the plant by the
rings on it's roots. it takes a while to make a profit off ginseng.
thats what i read anyway. my husband said so too. well if this don't
help fell free to ask me anything else if i don't know an answer i'll
ask my husband or his friend but we mainly deal with wild ginseng. we
live in ky and there is lots around here. tenenesse and ohio have
alots too.
