Haven't updated in awhile. The prices here are slowing climbing toward $400. Seems a lot of the dealers got stuck with some of the ginseng they paid $800 a pound for last year and demand is still down while the supply is higher. Still the price is climbing as I imagine a lot of people are holding out for better prices and it is still early.
Oh yeah the spot I found. I've been perfecting a new technique of locating new places to look for ginseng. Anyway, on my last attempt it put me into a location where I found and dug a little bit over 3 green pounds in less than 4 hours. A great find! Probably one of the most concentrated patches I have ever found as it was a fairly small section of a hollow that it was all growing in. Really big and healthy plants too. The soil was very rich and loose and deep. The digging was easy except for all the weeds and bushes and small trees. It was a great place and great soil for everything to grow I guess.
