Haven't used it, but I would guess that since I haven't heard of others using it, it's not as good.

I've used rice flour and rye flour, results vary, but the rye flour did a much better job for me.

I got mine at "Nature's Supermarket", a local organic food store... that's the only place I could find BRF as well.

But there's not going to be a huge difference between the two. I think the rye did better because it kinda clumps more than the rice flour. You'd have to see it, but it seemed to make a bunch of tiny air pockets for the mycelium to grow in. Just don't pack the BRF down, and it'll do fine. If you can find rye flour, do both so you can compare.

I always get better results when I grind my own Brown Rice. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the rye flour clump more? Also the WBS has more nutrients and oils(thus more potent) vs the popcorn.....

Rye flour gets real sticky but works well just be sure to mix well before addng the water. I prefer dark rye flour myself.

Okay, I'll share. Now the ingredients were compiled with the help of Blue Helix and Agar. There is nothing exotic in here, but it has a good nutritional profile. This recipe is for 4 large filter patch spawn bags. It will fill them within 2 1/2 inches of the bottom of the filter patch and lays out perfectly in 19 quart containers with a substrate depth of 3 1/2 inches.

The recipe is as follows:

48 Cups of horse manure (shredded)
24 Cups of vermiculite
16 1/2 Cups of dry WBS (do not soak or simmer)
4 Tablespoons of dry Kelp Meal
6 Tablespoons of Canola or Vegetable oil
21 Cups of water

Thoroughly mix all dry ingredients together. Now, add the water and mix again. Due to the human error factor on measurements, you may consider adding only 18 cups of water to begin with and adjust it from there. However, I have found that any measurements that are off are negligible in the moisture content.

After all the water is added, test your moisture content by giving the substrate a hard squeeze. You should only be able to extract a few drops from this, not a steady drip. If you find that your substrate is a little too wet, slowly add vermiculite until you get the right consistency. If you measure everything correctly this should not be necessary. The moisture content needs to be slightly dryer than normal to allow for the liquid culture you will inject later.

The final step is adding the oil. I prefer to add the oil in after the water has been added. I find it's much easier to mix in and doesn't stick to the substrate in one area or clump. Mixing the oil in with the dry ingredients will surely clump on you.

Load your spawn bags at the same time and make sure they are as even as possible. Now it does not matter where you mix this. I do mine in my garage. I know I'm going to sterilize the substrate so contaminates are less of a concern. Follow the tek by Blue Helix to complete it. I personally PC for 3 1/2 hours at 15 PSI.

After they have cooled just inoculate and wait.

Adding lipids to the substrate increases the nutritional profile. Mycelium will feed on lipids and it helps with vitamin absorption.

It helps encourage the mycelium to 'network' and grow faster.

Thanx for the info wronguy, sounds like the go for the next round!

This hobby takes time! Instant gratification will take you to steps of having to experiment in areas that you are going to have to do steps over and over again! It isn't about a Chia Shroom!
You may as well take your time and do it right the first time, that IMHO would be the quickest way!  :smile:

The addition of vegetable oil encourages flocculation.
