Re: Growing Ginseng

I recently purchased some Ginseng seeds, and am currently holding them in a dish i layered with cotton. I wish to grow them hydroponically, and was wondering if someone could suggest how it is that i could aeroponically grow them.

to be honest i'm not sure at all how it is that i should keep them till they do start growing,

and as well i have one ginseng root that is a year old that i got with the patch of seeds that i purchased, so i'm hoping someone will reply before i screw up and they die..

basically i was hoping ot grow the aeroponically, and was wondering if anyone could suggest what the best way of doing this might be

Re: Growing Ginseng

I have been doing a lot of research in regards to growing Ginseng in hydro, but have yet to see anyone do this. Has anyone here have any experience? Andrii any luck? If so, what system are you using and how are you handling the lumens ascpect for the Ginseng needs?

Re: Growing Ginseng

I know there isn't much info on growing ginseng hydroponically, but does anyone know how long it would take for a root to reach a maturity level as to be cultivatable. All the information ive gathered suggests that ginseng needs a fairly acidic ph (4.5 - 6.0) 70% shade, and calcium rich nutrients. Lime helps also. The only thing i havn't seen is how long it takes to mature.

Re: Growing Ginseng

I know of no one growing ginseng hydroponically successfully. I would suggest that the more artificial the growing environment, the less value of the ginseng in terms of price or medicinal value. For information on growing ginseng in traditional ways, write to Lee's, P.O. Box 68276-G, New Augusta, IN 46268
