Hey yo

What are some of the options for a substrate mix for shrooms, i couldn't find brown rice flour so i got brown rice instead....as i write this i am now thinking that i'm a bit of an idiot cause this isn't going to work right?

Well if brown rice alone doesn't work what are my other options for a mean substrate thats not brown rice flour and Vermiculite?

Any help is good

Peace
J

I hate cakes... try to get popcorn or whole corn..... works like a charm. Presure cook for 40 minutes in water, dry, jar and presure cook for 65 minutes.

lol, dont give up man, anything home made i make fails miserably!

assuming ur from austrailia cos of the vegemite thing, why not pop to a seriously cheap supermarket and buy a crap jam. throw it away but use the jar.

why dont you blend the brown rice into brown rice flour and then boil then jars in a regular pot with a steam basket? dont go buying new substrate when you already have it

Thanks guys

AK, your a genius! blender, dont have one. I'll get a magic bullet i can see the add's now
"With the new Majic bullet you can blend up a mean substrate to grow some beautiful cilicide cubensies!"
"thats right Tina, i ate some 10 minuets ago and i can see the rainbows coming right off your toung!"

So what i did (don't laugh) got the jar, emptied it, slammed it in the dishwasher, got it out, rinsed with boiling water then put the brown rice in and added boiling water as well, let it sit for like 10 seconds, drained the water, put the lid on and i'm about to ad the mushie.

I don't think it will work but honestly i'm not fussed
Big thanks for the blender tip
+rep to you both!
PEace

Don't try to experiment too much with sterilization techniques. Its best to hot bath your jars for an hour at least if you don't have a pressure cooker. Some of the bad micro organisms are pretty tough.

just get a bowl pour the rice flour in( u did get organic right?) use a spoon or somin and grind it urself. i used a magic bullet the regular blade and it works like a charm
