Adding schema rating stars to the Home Page

Adding schema rating stars to the Home Page
I`m fighting now with increasing CTR from some generic search queries against the bigger competitors. Just curious - am I able to add schema rating stars to the home page? If yes - how long does it take to show them in SERPs?

I`ve made a test last week and still no changes (ratings appeared on other subpages).

Ideas? Thoughts? :)

Tim Capper: Are the schema ratings on the Home page, an overall rating for the entire site as a whole? and different to individual ratings on product pages ?

The reason I ask, it that generic "across whole" site ;ratings seems to drop off once gbot realises that its not quite true.
?ukasz Rogala: So you suggest Tim to have different ratings on different pages?
Tim Capper: Thats how I have understood correct rating implementation and what I do.

Each product has their own ratings >> then all these are colated into one overall rating for home page
?ukasz Rogala: Will test that!
Mach Page Speed: Lukasz - I put schema ratings on each of my product pages and it took 7 weeks for the stars to appear in SERP's.
