rye seed substitutes
    #14318984 - 04/19/11 06:25 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I live in toronto and have tried the suggestions of zellers, wal-mart, canadian tire, health food stores, etc. to find rye seed. I'm at my wits end, and was wondering. Is there a substitute to rye seeds that would be easyier to find, and if possible it would be nice if anyone knew where to get them. I know the tek for using rye seed, so it would be best if there was little or no differents between the tek I'll have to use with the substitute you might suggest. I'm completly ready to start my first (non- rice cake) batch but I can't find a substrate to colonize with. just some extra info- It's being grown indores, so nothing stinky like manure and its gonna be a VERY large batch (approx 50-100 jars)

Rye berries are the cream of the crop and beat every other grain, hands down.  The organic rye berries I get are grown in Ontario, so shouldn't be hard to find.  Check organic food stores or animal feed stores.

Shouldnt be hard to find but in Toronto, it appears to be. I went to at least 5 health food stores, bulk stores. grocery stores.

I just went with hard wheat. I wanted Rye tho.

Must be something they export, Iv had NO luck finding rye berries at
over 8 different feed mills within 2 hours of myself.

Wheat kernels where all I could find, $27 for a 55Lb bag. They are
working out great for all my edible and medicinal grows, and can be
prepped the same as rye.

Evil search for whole foods in your area..  They can get your 25lb. bags of rye if you wanted to go that route..  I go to my local whole foods, well it aint local its like an hr away and I buy 200lbs. at a time..  Last time the cashier was like "what do you and your wife do with all that rye" I told her we make homemade bread with it :smile: Not sure if you actually can but it worked lmao..

Try here.

Scarborough is part of Toronto isn't it?  They're calling it Rye Kernels.

Take note folks from T., there is a whole foods in Toronto as well
as Oakville Ontario.

These are too far out of my way to be viable options, and I highly
doubt I could get rye cheaper then the 55lb for $27 I am getting now.

Thanks for the information tho Damion, I am sure it will help a lot
of folks.

No worries, I just know that alot of people check health food stores, but most of the smaller ones don't carry rye, but the bigger ones like whole foods does, I think I paid 68 cents/lb.

GREAT link RR, many thanks, and yes Scarborough is part of the Greater
Toronto Area.

D: I am currently paying .49 cents per lb for hard wheat kernels, I
think for that price I will stick to them.

If I come across some rye at a competitive price I might give it a
try, but with gas at 1.32/L the store will have to be a lot closer.
