Substrate Question

Let me begin by saying yes I have used the search function, and found 1 or 2 things that fit exactly what I'm planning on doing. However their old posts that people seemed unable to give actual results from using this.
So the Topic is Cracked Corn, I just got back from the store and couldn't find any bird seed that said what it had in it. Then I saw Cracked Corn....So basically I read that using regular Corn and White PopCorn took forever to Colonize I'm wondering if anyone has been using cracked corn on the regular basis. If so is their anything extra to do to make sure it gets sterilized and also how much water should I add to the jars when making them. Any comments would be appreciated and I plan on taking notes of all progress to post later on.

Further Searching has led me to some more finds on this subject which leads me to believe it does work. But i would still like to know of any people who use this and any tips would still be appreciated.

Cracked corn will work, but it's not a preferred method. If you are going to spawn to a bulk substrate, Wild bird see or rye will work great. I have not yet found any brand of wild bird seed that did not work.

Well since I bought a 5lb bag of it Im going to follow a tek I found, and make 2 quart size jars. Im simmering the cracked corn right now, and will pressure cook the jars tomorrow. I will also be leaving Town for a week so I hope to see good results when I get back. I will be putting these jars by themselves into the Incubator.
