How to choose fresh ginseng

The first step is to look at the reed head of fresh ginseng, which is the key to a ginseng. The so-called nutritional years are all on it. Look at several reed bowls on it. The more reed bowls, the more nutritious the ginseng is.

Step 2, look at the ginseng. Normal fresh ginseng and local ginseng all have cylindrical ginseng, with smooth surface and tender skin. When you dig it with your hand, white slurry will flow out, which is the essence of ginseng. If the ginseng is dug out for too long, the skin will wrinkle, the nails will be hard to dig off, and the quality of this ginseng will become worse.

the third step is to look at the ginseng whiskers of fresh ginseng and local ginseng. When excavating high-quality fresh ginseng, it is necessary to dig down about half a meter deep, and all the roots and whiskers are completely excavated. If there is a broken beard or obvious lack of rhizomes, congratulations, you may have bought inferior products.
