alternative substrates to rye grain
    #2325776 - 02/12/04 02:28 AM (20 years, 1 month ago)

the store that i get my rye grain from is out and they tell me they won't have any again for awhile...heh.  can anyone suggest an alternative substrate material for quart jars that can be shaken and that cases well? i saw white wheat berries, several varieties of rice, and i remember a couple of months ago i read some people raving about cracked corn on here.

i am open to any and all suggestions :smile:

danke.

Look under Bulk Cultavition in the FAQ's theres lots of stuff there. But I would recommend popcorn as OmegaRed said, Its cheap easy to work with, and every store has it.

you mean just bulk popcorn that you would throw in a popper, cook, and eat? does it need to be certified organic to ensure that there are no chemicals/etc on it?

White Millet Birdseed. It's a hell of a lot easier. It's worked for me every time, and it's safe to buy in quantity.

WBS "wild bird seed" seems to work pretty well.
