Thank you! This was very helpful. We use ashwagandha powder for dogs in our rescue as it helps them with anxiety, and have recently started growing it and needed help understanding how to harvest.
Thank you. Love your garden. Spotted the Echinaceae next to the Ashwaganda. I have Ashwaganda growing in the backyard. Looks healthy but only a few months of growth. I appreciate the detail on how to use the plant and look forward to your other videos.
LOVE this channel!! Thanks for sharing your wisdom❤️🙏🌿
Great! I harvested some ashwagandha today, now for cleaning the roots. 😀
"thank you Mark, love you"😀
Thank you so much! I am going to harvest my Ashwagandha roots today,
Your vids have a calming effect.. Thank you for the great content keep it up!
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Loving the other channel.
Mine naturalize and also most come back after the freezing winter nights in So. Calif. Birds like the seeds and spread them. Pretty drought resistant mostly.
brilliant, learning from every video
Thank you! I got some aswagandha plants last fall... Now I know how to havest the seeds and propagate this wonderful medicine.
Fantastic informative video. Thank you 🙏
Wonderful video. Very informative and full of great information. Until recently, I had never heard of Ashwagandha. Thanks for another great post.

good job
We'll any other videos on processing it?
Yo what. I've been reading up on Ashwaganda and just bought the roots online. But after seeing this vid I just realised Ashwaganda is growing everywhere out in the open near where I live. It's almost like a weed.

I started an ashwagandha plant from seed this year and it's growing up now! Can't wait to harvest, it's just getting berries now. Zone 7a.
I planted 3 Ashwaganda plants this year (NE Ohio) for the first time! They did not get as large as yours but are ready to harvest the roots! Looking forward to your other video's

@@plantabundance I'm three weeks in on some ashawaganda seedlings. I get the same powder but was worried about lead and such. Plus it's always better when you grow your own.
This video is particularly helpful. This is one of the medicinals that I would like to start growing here in VA. I have not seen any locally sold as plants or seeds. Do you have a recommendation for where to buy these seeds online? I look forward to the next video showing you processing! 👍

Are you using the leaves for Tea or the roots? Where did you buy your seeds? I am so interested to know how yours faired.
Can you harvest the leaves?
Was the plants that were left in the ground able to survive the winter? And if so, how many years did they come back after winter? Thanks in advance
Thank you for this video :) . Is there a specific age that Ashwaganda needs to be harvested by? Your video shows what looks like a lovely tender root system of mostly fairly fine roots, whereas my plant which I just uprooted has 4 or 5 main roots about the thickness of my thumb, which taper off to about the thickess of my little finger with not very many finer roots beyond that. It does smell pungent, but if it's a horse it's a slightly 'sweet' horse... Thank yiu :)

In the video he mentioned 1st or 2nd year roots are best ;)
Where can i buy the plant
Do you sell plant or seed ?
We are expecting a possible frost tonight. My ashwaganda berries have not turned brown yet. Any suggestions?
Do you sell the seeds, sir?
How did you get your plants? Would you recommend? How did it go? I have something similar growing wild in my backyard, but not sure it is the same, but it is a weed that has "paper husks" of similar shape, that contain berries. Does anyone know what it might be? I am in the Midwest, USA

Grown from seed. Great crop to grow. Cheers!
Can the root be cut and plant replanted?
Question: How can I identify the Ashwagandha root available in market to ensure the authenticity?
Can you please tell me where can I get the seeds?
the bark on the roots is a very potent part

Said after the first time you plant it you can use the roots! It's got to be harvested every year
So which part should I consume to have the plant benefits ? The roots the leafs in a tea or the berries ? Any help would be great

Ashwagandha needs sandy soil that doesn't hold much water moisture . The dryer the soil, the better

I wonder if when it starts to branch out you cut those back to prune like a tree and you get bigger thicker root systems to harvest?

You just pop the berries and dry the seeds out? How come I'm reading that eating the berries can be unsafe? I have so many questions i just bought my first plant and it's now fall..i have it under t5 lamp and going to grow it all winter of course. My problem is do i top the plant or just let it keep growing straight?
