I'm curious, as I'm gonna start to use millet heavy bird seed soon. What about millet don't you like?

no i just disagree with a lot of his opinions .

like millet, for example.


I don't think it's a controversial opinion to not like a millet. Grain type that people are using is based entirely on availability usually.

The time when you need to possibly criticize is when someones preferred method is leaky corn.

literally anything is better than millet, as it takes years to
colonize if ever at all.

and the reason he uses it is based on greater number of inoculation points which is silly, so.  jot that down .

Oh he's just pushing surface area.

Which in theory if you have a strong culture should give it more points to crawl on.
But ultimately I feel like it's the genetic that really matters not the grain.

You don't like corn in general? Or is leaky corn a type of corn, is whatvim asking? I had good results withbcorn a long time ago and now I can't prepare it well anymore after not using it for years. It's real easy to fuck popcorn.

That's good to know. I always thought the more inoculation points arguments was kind of solid. But when I did runs with corn it would colonize the grains fast as fuck because of the fact that it had less surface area, which is why I stayed with corn for a long time.

i did side by sides and it took more than twice as much time to colonize as wheat.  so fuck the noc points i could have grown twice the tubs in half the time. 

plus, i noticed zero difference in colonization times at bulk.

ive tried every grain imaginable and the only one that comes close to wheat is rye, its just expensive.

Yeah I'll take quicker over more now points any day. I use rye grass seed as a jump off point for my lc when I do dowels but I've never tried wheat berries. That's been on my list for years. Rye is the shit, it's actually where i started but it is too expensive for my taste.

id use rye if it were affordable at my scale because its clean and meant for human consumption so its less steps to prep. 

wheat is almost nutritionally identical it just takes more work but i have it down.  see my tek.

It's a "tek" by a youtube cultivator called "Drippy Corn" where he adds karo syrup to popcorn and uses it for grain spawn.

I just use wild birdseed so I don't even have a part in that conversation.
But there was a really good deal and I do have a bag of millet and I do plan on using it at some point.

I usually try everything at least once, even really bad ideas. But that just sounds like the kind of thing that I already know how it will end for me.

A buddy of mine did straight meet and he got it down to where he was just putting a set a.mount of water in the jars with the dry millet and pcing them to get it hydrated and sterilized in one shot. My biggest thing with straight millet, from the pictures he showed me at least, was it looked kinda hard to tell if the mycelium was good. Like the mycelium and millet color were too close to each other and the space between the millet so tiny that it was hard to tell what was mycelium.
