Ground barley for BRF?
    #27067350 - 12/01/20 10:27 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

Subject should explain question but to elaborate....
A restart is being done after a hiatus. Spores going to agar for WBS. In the meantime, PF tek will also be utilized. Difficulty: only allowed to use items on-hand.
Grains on-hand: instant brown rice, barley, WBS, quick rolled oats

Instant brown rice has been reported to have problems with moisture, as well as lack nutrients, leading to colonization and potency issues. Nevertheless, a mss of z strain was prepared and used to inoculate 9 half pint jars. Failure will result in the loss of very little, but success could significantly reduce time to harvest.

Would ground barley be a better sub for BRF than instant BR?
Same question with quick rolled oats and WBS.
Regardless, agar is happening soon, and all possible options may be tried out of curiosity, but any input is appreciated.

Rolled Oats works :thumbup: I'm growing Oatmeal-coir cakes right now and prefer them over BRF cakes cause it's easier and cheaper.

Excellent. Are the oats processed in a grinder or used AP (as purchased)?
Same ratio for pf as brf? (2:1 verm:brf)

Not processed in any way, just one part dry oatmeal mixed 2 parts hydrated verm or coir :thumbup:
