Excerpt from Ginseng and Goldenseal Growers' Handbook Owing to the incompleteness of all existing literature on the cultivation and marketing of ginseng and goldenseal, the writer has practically been forced to the preparation of this handbook. The flood of inquiries that has come to him has revealed the popular interest in this most fascinating and intensive form of gardening and has compelled him to recognize the demand for a practical guide to ginseng growing. To answer by personal letter the almost innumerable questions that come to him in the course of the mail is impracticable, not to say impossible; at the same time all these questions should be answered, to the end of preventing misadventures and failures in ginseng growing and of keeping the cultivation of this profitable plant out of the hands of reckless and unscrupulous exploiters. Nearly all of the literature on ginseng culture now available is notably lacking in a clear statement of the various diseases and plagues by which the ginseng plant is sometimes attacked. To this particular feature the writer has given especial attention and has attempted to make his statements understandable to the amateur. In fact, throughout, he has tried to hold the needs of the novice and amateur constantly in mind. The writer became interested in the habits of the wild ginseng plant in his childhood, and ever since then - a period of some thirty years or more - he has been almost continuously engaged in the study and growing of ginseng. His experience in growing ginseng on a commercial scale, however, began in 1900. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From the Introduction: OWING to the incompleteness of all existing literature on the cultivation and marketing of ginseng and goldenseal, the writer has practically been forced to the preparation of this handbook. The flood of inquiries that has come to him has revealed the popular interest in this most fascinating and intensive form of gardening and has compelled him to recognize the demand for a practical guide to ginseng growing. To answer by personal letter the almost innumerable questions that come to him in the course of the mail is impracticable, not to say impossible; at the same time all these questions should be answered, to the end of preventing misadventures and failures in ginseng growing and of keeping the cultivation of this profitable plant out of the hands of reckless and unscrupulous exploiters. Nearly all of the literature on ginseng culture now available is notably lacking in a clear statement of the various diseases and plagues by which the ginseng plant is sometimes attacked. To this particular feature the writer has given special attention and has attempted to make his statements understandable to the amateur. In fact, throughout, he has tried to hold the needs of the novice and amateur constantly in mind. The writer became interested in the habits of the wild ginseng plant in his childhood, and ever since then — a period of some thirty years or more — he has been almost continuously engaged in the study and growing of ginseng. His experience in growing ginseng on a commercial scale, however, began in 1900. His effort in the preparation of this book has been to give the reader the benefit, at every point, of his own experience and observation and of his scientific studies and researches. The writer is so largely indebted to many scientific writers and authorities that he feels that his labors have been more those of an editor and compiler than of a writer. This observation applies especially to that portion of the book dealing with the diseases of the ginseng plant. A cheerful and grateful acknowledgment of these authorities has been made wherever they are quoted.

The most comprehensive, truly practical guide to the cultivation of woodland botanicals Not all saleable crops are dependent on access to greenhouses or sun-drenched, arable land. Shade-loving medicinal herbs can be successfully cultivated in a forest garden for personal use or as small-scale cash crops. Growing and Marketing Ginseng, Goldenseal and other Woodland Medicinals is a complete guide to these increasingly popular botanicals, aimed at aspiring and experienced growers alike. In this fully revised and updated edition, authors Jeanine Davis and W. Scott Persons show how more than a dozen sought-after native species can generate a greater profit on a rugged, otherwise idle woodlot than just about any other legal crop on an equal area of cleared land. With little capital investment but plenty of sweat equity, patience, and common sense, small landowners can preserve and enhance their treed space while simultaneously earning supplemental income. Learn how to establish, grow, harvest, and market: Popular medicinal roots such as ginseng, goldenseal, and black cohosh; Other commonly used botanicals including bloodroot, false unicorn, and mayapple The nutritious wild food, ramps, and the valuable ornamental galax. Packed with budget information, extensive references, and personal stories of successful growers, this invaluable resource will excite and inspire everyone from the home gardener to the full-time farmer. Jeanine Davis is an associate professor and extension specialist with North Carolina State University. Her focus is helping farmers diversify into new crops and organic agriculture. W. Scott Persons is the author of American Ginseng: Green Gold and an expert in growing and marketing wild-simulated and woods-cultivated ginseng.

"When the price of Ginseng advanced some years ago hundreds engaged in the business who knew little or nothing of farming, plant raising and horticulture. That they largely failed is not to be wondered at. Later many began in a small way and succeeded. Many of these were farmers and gardeners. Others were men who had hunted, trapped and gathered "seng" from boyhood. They therefore knew something of the peculiarities of Ginseng. It is from the experience of these men that this work is largely made up--writings of those who are in the business. Golden seal is also attracting considerable attention owing to the rapid increase in price during the early years of the present century. The growing of this plant is given careful attention also. Many other plants are destined to soon become valuable. A work gotten out by the government--American root drugs--contains a great deal of value in regard habits, range, description, common names, price, uses, etc., etc., so that some of the information contained in this book is taken therefrom. The prices named in the government bulletin which was issued in 1907 were those prevailing at that time--they will vary, in the future, largely according to the supply and demand. The greatest revenue derived from plants for medicinal purposes is derived from the roots, yet there are certain ones where the leaves and bark are used. Therefore to be complete some space is given to these plants. The digging of the roots, of course, destroys the plant as well as does the peeling of the bark, while leaves secured is clear gain--in other words, if gathered when matured the plant or shrub is not injured and will produce leaves each year. The amount of root drugs used for medicinal purposes will increase as the medical profession is using of them more and more. Again the number of people in the world is rapidly increasing while the forests (the natural home of root drugs) are becoming less each year. This shows that growers of medicinal roots will find a larger market in the future than in the past. Those who know something of medicinal plants--"Root Drugs"--can safely embark in their cultivation, for while prices may ease off--go lower--at times, it is reasonably certain that the general trend will be upward as the supply growing wild is rapidly becoming less each year." -A.

Sul’s history of the international ginseng trade reveals the cultural aspects of international capitalism and the impact of this single commodity on relations between the East and the West. Ginseng emerged as a major international commodity in the seventeenth century, when the East India Company began trading it westward. Europeans were drawn to the plant’s efficacy as a medicine, but their attempts to transplant it for mass production were unsuccessful. Also, due to a failure of extracting its active ingredients, Western pharmacology disparaged ginseng in the process of modernization. In the meantime, ginseng was discovered on the American continent and became one of the United States’ key exports to Asia and particularly China, but never cultivated a significant domestic market. As such, historicizing the ginseng trade provides a unique perspective on the impact of both culture and economics on international trade. A compelling interdisciplinary history of over five centuries of East–West trade and cultural exchange, this book will be invaluable to students and scholars of transnational history and a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of international trade.
