Thoughts on what?  You can use all millet spawn if you want :shrug:.  If you can't find rye/wheat/WBS any cheaper than go for it.

does myc want the milo as well? Is red millet better than white? Would it be better to buy from a seed company that mixes their own? And just get the millet??? or do i want WBS as a mix? "Fun w/ milo" is interesting...just was curious on white Proso millet by itself.

You should be able to grow on any kind of millet or milo alone just fine.

Its best to keep uniformity with the grains. Millet is hard to cook correctly but has powerhouse inoc points. Its a quality grain.

thanks...dumb questions:

What makes any grain good? 

Is it the proteins, lipids, carbs? If so, would higher amounts be better?

Sorry, for the noob questions. Just trying to understand everything better.

The smaller size of the grain means that there are more grains per quart.  When you mix to bulk you will have more points of "inoculation" throughout the mass of bulk substrate.  I hope that I described it correctly.  Basically, you have more points to grow out from.

The other good thing about using a single type of grain is uniformity of hydration.  Typical WBS mixes contain 3+ differing seeds, so as some grains become hydrated, others may still be hard and dry on the inside.

Thanks for the further explanations, Very Much Appreciated!!

Definitely just sticking to one seed. Just out of curiosity, i've been trying to figure out how to reuse my garden into this.  I have a variety of seeds i thresh, do i want to thresh milo(possibly due to it growing thick in my field), millet or wheat? Nooooo, but i left a bunch of Okra plants to just grow and collect seed. They're maybe a tad bigger, no threshing and enough is easily obtainable, High proteins, fat's and the such.

Thanks again guys!!

You can use whichever you want.  They all will work, millet will just have more inoculation points, like Whippy said, but I wouldn't say one would necessarily be better than the other.
