Second, how can ginseng tell the true from the false?

Method 1: look at the beard

Generally speaking, ginseng needs to be longer or older, in addition, it is more resilient and looser, and there are some millet-sized bumps on it. Generally speaking, such ginseng is true. on the contrary, if the ginseng looks white and tender and very crisp, you should be more careful, it may not be real ginseng, even if it is true, it may also be a relatively low-value garden ginseng.

Method 2: look at the gourd

Generally speaking, the Reed of ginseng is in the place of a section on the thick end of the ginseng, and the Reed is generally divided into two-section, three-section, line and wild goose neck, so when distinguishing between true and false, we can use this to see whether it is real ginseng. If it is not four sections, then the authenticity of this ginseng needs to be verified. In addition, in general, the real ginseng Reed head is a little longer and the nodal part is obvious.

Method 3: look at the skin

The skin of real ginseng will look older, and the color shown is yellow or brown and tight and shiny. On the contrary, if the skin of ginseng is white and tender, then this may either not be real ginseng or garden ginseng. This identification method is relatively simple and effective, and you can tell it by looking at more pictures or objects of real ginseng.

Method 4: look at the pattern

If you look at the lines, you can look at the thin end of the ginseng to see if there are dense and deep screw lines, if so, it means that the ginseng is real, but if the ginseng lines look shallow and incoherent, then most of them are not very good ginseng. This can only be identified through careful observation.
