when you get on all the websites you can't get a definate answer.everything says it is supposed to be changed and wait for updates but the updates haven't came out yet.i know they are really trying to get a handle on the population in p.a. and was told they are going to go extreme with reg's right of the bat then back off on regulation if reason is seen to warrant it.

talked to a couple of dealers yesterday and they both said it has been changed to sept.1.they both said they can't buy green till sept.1 and dry till sept.15.can't argue with what they are doing i guess,we are our own worst enemies and seng is a natural resource we can't afford to lose.still cannot get someone from the state to return a call though.

i called to harrisburg to check on this and the law is still august 1st on digging.........i have found most times that late october to early november is the time to sell...not late sept or early oct....most dealers will low ball you if you sell early because of the market not beign stabilized that early and they dont want to lose money.....
i for one refuse to dig seng for under 500 a lb dry weight....i feel its worth more than that for all my time to dig any amount.....and besides the longer you let those mature plants provide berries the better seng harvest you will have in the long run....
i have always bought stratified seed and when i dug wild seng i always re-broadcasted my own strat seed to replentish what i have taken....i have not dug any in about 4 years but i do have some great patches to go dig at when i decide to go because of my re-planting practices....i have been doing that for about 15-16 yrs now and it will pay off when or if i decide to go back and harvest the mature plants out of those places....

I wish more diggers were like you. When seng was up to $1,000 lb. i lost several thousand 3 to 5 year olds to slob diggers. Made me sick. Always replant your seed or close by where it will grow better.
