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

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!!

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 Dymentia

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 .
