Growing Ginseng Under Artificial Shade

Growing Ginseng Under Artificial Shade

If natural woodland shade is not available, artificial shade may be used, especially in garden-style plantings.

Key Points

  • Use shade to protect plants from direct sunlight.
  • A slatted shade cover can be used in garden settings.
  • An east-facing opening can allow only limited morning sun.
  • Shade structure design should reduce heat and sun stress.
