Foxkidd44 its been rough. You should just get out though and wander. Look for deer scrapes trapping spots. Life is good when your wandering. The bounus is the seng. Even shot a few squirrels.

You need to publish a book on fal edible mushrooms. Take pictures of the good and the bad put them side by side. I see a whole bunch around here but have no idea what they are except puffballs.

My price is 500, but you have fancier seng than I do. I could 535.00 or a little better on that typ of seng with certification papers.

I'm paying top dollar for Wisconsin root...200.00+++ for good quality green root..licensed certified buyer..2 ounces stratified seed given for every pound green ..will beat all local prices and come to you...call mike at 608 476 2468
Southwest Wisconsin area. What do you do with lesser quality root. Not all green seng will bring top price. I had Chinese buyers wanting to buy 20 to 30m year old root at a nice price but dropped bthe price quite a bit on 10 year old root and if it was less than 10 years old or to small, they didn't want it. Personally I won't buy root that has had all the nice root picked out of it by a person selling his green root at high prices. Another problem selling green root is going to end up biting all of us in the rear end some day. The way this is going to happen is, once the Chinese have our wild root re established in their country, they won'r need to buy our root anymore.

Hummm.... let me think.
Three pound of green seng = 2 pounds of dry seng, right?
At $525.00/pound dry 2 dry pounds of seng = $1050.00 (buyer #1)
At $200.00/pound green 3 pounds = $600.00 + seed (buyer #2)
Any questions????
pick65 Not sure about your root, but our area equates to 3-4lbs green to 1 lb of dry. The early root weighs less and will take more to make a full dry pound. The later root is heavier and therefore can see 3:1 ratios. With this dry season, it seems like even the larger roots are weighing in lighter than past seasons.
