amount of grain vs. brf
    #1251843 - 01/27/03 01:29 AM (21 years, 2 months ago)

is a pint of colonized grain just twice as much as a colonized 1/2 pint of brf?
asking because it seems like less substrate material is used in a grain tek. like about a halfcup water/grain. just curious thanks

i will try to answer, although i am no 100% sure what exactly do you want to know.

a one pint jar of colonized rye grains contains MORE mycelium than one pint jar of colonized cake with brf (because it also contains vermiculite in there).

hope i helped somehow. if not, pls reply and i will try my best :smile:

I tried rye after my first BRF experiment, and will never go back to brown rice flower and vermiculite because how much rice is actually in a 1/2 pints BRF cake?  Plus i just did myfirst grain to grain transfer.....1pint colonised rye into 4 pints uncolonized and on day seven i cased all 4 pints!!

...not sure if this helps....

BUT USE RYE!! :grin:

sorry if my question was a little confusing, basically what im asking is a pint of colonized grain more than a colonized 1/2 pint of BRF? it seems to me that it would be...




thanks

Yes, definately!!
Not sure by how much....
But a colonized pint of rye has much more nutrients than a 1/2 pint of all BRF (no vermiculite)

What about nutrient differance between a kernel of Rye and 1 grain of Brown rice?

I think they are pretty much equal...

rice has more starch, but doesn't colonize as well whole, because its hull is too dense .
