300 STRATIFIED American Ginseng Seeds Panax quinquefolium L.

I normally do not write a review, but this time I will. I ordered in winter and removed from mailbox and put the package in the refrigerator door. In a few days I pour potting soil in the bag and some rain water and returned it back to the refrig door. A week later I check, and ALL the seeds are sprouting roots! I will prepare a tray this week and plant as many as I can. If I get 150 to grow, that will give me over $500 in 10 years.... this is a great product from a great company.UPDATE: three weeks of growth and 99% germination of 75 seeds. One plant died (broken stem) other seeds germinated and still in refrig in plastic bag (and moist potting soil). I did not expect 99.5% germination. I will plant 50% of the other germinated seeds soon. I am using 50% potting soil/builder sand mixture as a growing medium. The remainder of the seeds I will try to hold until October in the bag, in the refrigerator.....

The media could not be loaded. These came with no instructions, not germinating and no date as to when these were harvested. I don't belive they have been stratified at all.Nothing matches any of the reviews and if there has been some mistake I'd like a refund.

I had never bought ginseng before this purchase and didn't know what to expect. However, the supplier is very professional and includes detailed instructions on planting and storage of the seeds. Best to buy them to plant in the fall for maximum germination. I didn't do this and ended up planting them in the winter. Despite this, many germinated in the summer and were doing well before the deer ate them. Now to buy some more and install fencing.

UpdateOut of 300 seeds only 3 sprouted and they died. Dont waste your money or time on these seeds.Rcvd seeds in timely fashion. They were not packed in sand like others mentioned. Did a float test and I would say about 50% floated. Followed directions for planting...that was 9 days ago...nothing yet.

This is a 100% amazing product. All seeds grew but they grew too well. I found them all sprouting in my mailbox when I first received them so I had to quickly find space for them. I feel bad not saving all the seed but I have amazing little plants at least

Gave some to friends and each planted them different.No results yet

BS! Don't waste your money!

OK, I had to laugh when I first opened my package. The instructions were EPIC. But I read them all, every word. And I did exactly what I was supposed to do, back in November of last year. And I waited.Sadly, the squirrels dug up one my patches, (they do this if they suspect someone has buried something, it's just what they do) so I got smart and put chicken wire on top of the other one.Now it's April and I have over 40 healthy seedlings coming up on a north-east facing slope here in the forest. We are pleased as can be! I'm still protecting them and will do so until they are very well established. Great buy!
