Hi all,
my friend is just about to start; she would like to know if anyone has ever used brown rice (organic, no preservatives) instead of brown rice flour in their canning jars... Will this work just as good? Thanks,,,

Maybe whole brown rice is even better than rice flour since it would make a fluffier more breathable mix.

Whole brown rice will work on its own, w/out verm. Ground brown rice will work as a substitute for brown rice flour.
Tired of pimping yourself on the corner to afford spores? Well throw out that red dress and go to the FSR, for spores even you can afford.

Thanks for the "words of wisdom" everyone...
My friend says she'll go with regular old organic BRF this time, since she didn't think she'd find it but she did... She says it's really cheap! Anyways, for her next grow, she'll try the long grain organic brown rice, but would short grain work too? I told her most likely, why not right? Anyways, she says thanks!

Hey Shiznitz
Yes, whole brown rice works *great* as a substrate, and will colonize about twice as quickly as the flour, at least it did for me. I used 50% long grain brown rice and 50% vermiculite, but I imagine that plain rice would work just as well. Anyway I gotta go, but it's well worth a try.

The best place to buy *bulk* brown rice is in ASIAN markets. It does not say on the packages that it's "organic" but works just he same with less money spent! Asian markets mean stores that supply goods to the Asian population. I call them "chinese stores" but that's only because i'm just a dumb "white-boy" ... peace..
