Ginseng, known in many Asian countries as the king of all herbs, is a knobby root light tan in color. Occasionally the centre part of the root is said to resemble the human body as string like shoots stem off from the root and can be seen as arms and legs.

Due to Korean ginseng's unique appearance, herb doctors who lived centuries ago interpreted this perception to mean that ginseng was a cure-all for the entirety of human illness; subsequently many cultures do use ginseng to treat almost anything. Ginseng is also used by the Chinese culture to not only cure nearly everything, but also as a symbol of longevity, strength, and wisdom to its users.

The ginseng plant is identified by its leaves that form a circular pattern growing around its straight stem. Yellowish-green flowers bloom in the center of the plant and produce red berries from their umbrella-like blossoms. It is important to note that the age of the plant can be identified by counting the number of wrinkles around the plant’s neck, seeing as the ginseng root is only ready for use once it has completed approximately 4-6 years of maturity. Panax ginseng, commonly known as adaptogen, is a substance that offers some assistance in helping individuals who are dealing with physical and/or emotional stress. Ginseng, the traditional cure-all, has been said to relieve almost every ailment from anxiety to cancer and panax, according to traditional Chinese medicine. At present, several Asian countries are prescribing this particular type of Ginseng as treatment for several illnesses, including heart conditions and to enhance overall health.

    Spring Planting ; Panax ginseng seeds should be sown after a warm and cold stratification process which takes approximately 7 months.

    Sometimes the seed will go dormant and not germinate until the following year. If possible, plant in early spring but protect the seedlings from frost in the first year. Sow after the last frost. The seeds should be planted about 5mm to 20mm deep in the soil.

    Plant approximately 5cm apart if you intend to transplant the rootlets. When the rootlets are two years old they can be replanted (minimum 20cm apart), this reduces the risk of fungal infections from spreading to the other rootlets. Conversely, the seeds can be planted with a spacing of 20 to 30 cm.

    It is important to care for sown seed by ensuring that the soil is moist but not wet. Mulching is important.

    The seeds should also be protected from bugs, slugs, vermin, possums, scratching birds, rabbits, etc.
