- How is ginseng consumed? Ginseng expert, Bob Beyfuss, explains the various methods of processing ginseng after harvesting. Whether grinding the root up and ingesting it in pill form or consuming ginseng teas, the ginsenosides are present regardless. Bob also explains the health benefits of the leaves and why they generally are not used.
Thank you Bob. We'll miss you! RIP
What about steam curing?

Yes, Bob is greatly missed by so many.
What grinder do you use to grind the dried Ginseng?

so should the leaves be saved as well? what to do with them?
+Aleksandr Yatskevich You can dry the leaves and use them for tea. That is much more sustainable than harvesting the roots and studies show that many of ginseng's active constituents are found in the leaves as well.
So what you are telling me is... I should pull out my old 500 egg incubator.. remove the shell hydrator (water sponge and bucket), set the temperature at 95... and let her go. lol
How long do I have to wait in between ginseng Plantings? A year, two, Seven?
+Penney's Automotive Service Center Inc. It will take two years for a ginseng seed to sprout as it needs two winters for the seed to fully germinate. After sprouting, it's best to wait five years or more before harvesting the root. Larger, older roots command a greater price and have a higher level of ginsenosides (the main bioactive compound in ginseng). You can plant ginseng before the ground freezes, but the harvest should be delayed until the plant is at least five years old, although opinions vary on this.
+Forest Farming I understand the sprout and growing process, but what I was asking was after processing the plant root how long should I wait before replanting the bed. I heard Ginseng puts out a chemical which will not let you replant right away in the same bed. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
My apologies. I'd like to direct you to another video that addresses a fungus problem that is common with ginseng.
