Gardener Tips

Recommended to start indoors and transplant. Thin to healthiest seedlings. Will grow into a large bush in mild climates overwinter. Add mulch at base. Drought tolerant. Tender perennial. 

Seeds should be planted indoors and kept in a dome with a heated mat for 4-8 weeks. 

It is key that your new starts be hardened off.  This is a process that requires taking them outside during the day, for a period of time, before they are planted. This acclimates your seedlings to the outside world, meaning the elements like the wind and sun. We do it for several weeks to a month as this strengthens their stems and overall plant structure. 

• Start for a short period of time initially, then graduate to more time each day

• One week minimum is recommended

• Bring them inside in the early evening and overnight

• Keep an eye on them and constantly water them. Make sure they have not blown over. 

Mulch base of plant.

Harvesting Tips

Harvest ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) when the plant reaches maturity, typically 150–180 days after planting.

Signs the plant is ready to harvest:

• Leaves begin to yellow and dry.

• The plant starts to die back naturally.

• Red-orange berries inside papery husks are fully mature.

• Roots are well developed and thick.

How to harvest

1. Loosen the soil around the plant with a garden fork or shovel.

2. Carefully lift the entire plant from the soil, keeping the roots intact.

3. Shake off excess soil and cut away the stems and leaves.

Preparing the roots

• Wash roots gently to remove remaining soil.

• Cut larger roots into 3–4 inch pieces for easier drying.

• Allow roots to dry thoroughly in a warm, well-ventilated place out of direct sunlight.

Once fully dried, the roots can be stored whole or ground into powder for herbal preparations. 

Remember to label your jars with the variety name and the harvest year.  Always store in a cool, dark and dry location.
