Just wondered if anyone has ever used rye grain from a supplier called Crosby & Baker limited. And if so do you have success with it.

Grains come from farmers. A distributor will buy grains from many different farms from year to year, so the brand name on the bag isn't important. If they have rye berries(preferably organic), they'll work for your purposes. RR

Yes I understand this. I was asking the question to see it anyone had used grain from this supplier in the past with success and is now having issues with it. Because thats whats going with me. I have used this grain before and it worked. Even though I was very new to using grain and my prep wasnt good and the grain came out too wet, it still worked(slowly but in worked). Now after much trial and error my grain prep is pretty damn good much thanks to you of course and some other fine contributors. I have went through three syringes with zero signs of growth at all. That is why Im asking about the specific grain supplier. Is the grain there now getting being treated with fungicides. My grain prep really is good now, its not rocket science it just took a little trial and error. So therefore it has to be the syringes or the grain. My lids have vacutainer injection ports and half inch holes with synthetic filter disc's rtv'd over them, so there's gas exchange.

the grains are not the reason your spores wont germinate.
where are you getting your spores? and how long are you waiting before you decide that they WILL NOT EVER GERMINATE.
cuz ive had jars shot up with spores all at the same time.
most show growth within a week. then i had some retard jars that showed growth 3 weeks in. they still colonized and fruited fine.
i just see a lot of posts that say "1 week and no growth. bunk syringe?"
and now yours might be "1 week with no growth. bunk grains?"

Grains could be the reason if they were treated with a fungicide. But do I think this is the really the case, no I dont it was just a theroy. They are from Sporeworks. This is not a " one week and no growth thread". Ive got some that have been going for a month and there is nothing. And its not because of too wet of grain either. My moisture is spot on. I know that the Works is liked by many but 3 syringes down and I aint got shit out of them. So I ordered from the old stand bye T.H.E. Just got them yesterday so we will see what happens. If I get nothing then I know it has to be the grain because it cant be my lids.

Well I did all of that. So you think that those steps would remove the fungicides and other nasty shit if there were any? Then why do trusted cultivators like R.R. for example always say that you should always use organic grains that have not been treated with these type of things if they are removed during the grain preparation process.

If the grains were treated with fungicides, spores won't germinate on it. That's a big reason why it's preferable to get organic grains. Yes, I'm an organic kind of guy. RR

I already told you some of them have been going for a month now with no sigh of growth at all. And the grain has pretty much perfect moisture content. I would just about call that a failure considering the fact that I saw growth on jars with soaking wet grain in less time. Oh and by the way ready rice is FUCKIN TASTY.
