Send me some and I will show you how real the price is. You must handle it good. in other words, good and clean and 100 per cent dry or close to it. The roots must snap when you try to bend them. No stems or off roots in the bunch. Just normal digging preparations, unless you handle poor quality put up and if that is the case, I don't want it.

our seeds are finally all dropped and ready.dug out my first bed yesterday with 2 buyers watching over my shoulder.they were shocked at the size a root will grow to from a seed if planted in super soil.this bed was started from seeded dirt and the roots average bigger around than your thumb in 2 years.found there may be even more upswing of this market to come.bloodroot is easy to dig but cleaning can be tedious without a good set up.

Spray it off on a screen with a good hose and nozzle. Revolve the root until it is clean. Ain't hard to do. they just don't want dirt on the stuff that is all globed up and makes the root look grey. If you dig and handle roots and herbs, then you know how to do it. I put this info on for newbies.

Don just dig the roots and any hair root that stays on the root is ok. You don't have to take it off and you don't have to worry about it being gone. I will pay you the same price anyway you get it as long as it is clean and good and dry.

they are just rototilled gardens with really good soil covered 6 feet high by 80% shade cloth.you would be stunned at the size it gets.i'm moving right now and am taking all my dirt with me,you can see all the seeds in the dirt so i figure i'm gonna end up with bloodroot everywhere.remember bloodroot doesn't have to meet the same standards for growing as sang.no wild/cultivated difference.
