I came across this video while researching how to grow native rice in Michigan wetlands. Then I realized I KNOW YOU. You taught me how to french braid on the school bus as kids!
Hi Brie, awesome video! Would you be able to make a video about how to the harvest rice? I’m curious how a home grower would get the hulls off in order to cook and eat it. Thank you so much!
You could use an enormous mortar and pestle to pound the rice, but anything that can lightly crush the rice will work. Keep in mind that all rice grows as brown rice, so you will need to process the rice more if you want white rice! Hope this helps
With how expensive groceries are getting, I should TOTALLY try this. It's below freezing here in KY, but I may start by growing them indoors under a grow light so I don't have to wait till summer. Once summer comes, rice should grow really nicely. Temperatures here routinely get into the 90s in the summer, and I use a sump pump and a couple hundred feet of corrugated pipe to prevent my yard from turning into a swamp.
Thanks for opening my eyes & teaching me about growing grains. I had never even heard of any gardener adding grains into their landscape until you came along. I've got to give the Black Madras rice a try. Love the burgundy color! Enjoy your weekend.
That’s awesome I eat rice everyday and never knew how to grow them. This was very helpful even your tips. Thanks for going through the trial to let us know!
I am so happy I found your video, you explained this in such a simple & detailed way that even a beginner can easily understand & do themself, can't wait to see what other videos you have. Thank you for posting! 😊
Excellent video! I have a few gigantic pots without drainage holes that have been sitting around for a few years, and now I'm looking forward to using them to grow rice! Thank you! 😁💖
You do not know how relieved I was to hear that you said you were from central NC, I am in a town called Sanford so getting to hear an experience from someone near the area is a big help!
I live in Alberta Canada. I purchased organic brown rice form a big box store and soaked it in water for 24 hrs (tap water). I fished through it and picked out anything that turned green. I layered that in paper towel and in a plastic bag. Most of them sprouted!!!! I have just placed them in soaked garden dirt and placed them in a window. I have done this before and forgot tow water them so I hope that I will be able to bring these to fruition this time. I have a greenhouse and I'll keep my fingers crossed.
I have 2 acres, VERY dark loam soil, and red clay subsoil, in Zone 6a, with extremely poor drainage and full sun. I'm looking for a staple crop for about 0.1 acre of my land that can handle waterlogged soil, and possibly consume water. I'm also going to grow wheat so I'll need something that can take up excess water. Plus my wife really loves rice. Definitely going to give rice a try.
@@earthangeltribe Did that as well. So far it's going... alright. It's been dryer than anticipated so I've had to water rigorously during the dry periods. But the rice itself has done its job of taking up excess water, and it has thus far helped remove excess groundwater near my wheat when it does rain. The weather has followed a pattern of staying dry for two weeks and then letting loose with a half-inch or even a full inch in one downpour. The rice helps regulate available water in the soil so the other crops don't drown.
WOW.. what an awesome video.. and the BEST PART of this video. was the beginning where she stated what her Growing Zone was. THAT was fantastic.. cuz most of the videos folks make don't tell you what ZONE they are in !! BIG HELP !! thanks
Great video. So next summer I will try to grow Rice in one of those children's plastic pools.ike a 6 foot kids pool. Thank you for the great information
"I'm really giving it my best shot" I love that! Personally this video is excellent. Gave a lot of info in a short concise length. Would love to know varieties and maybe heat tolerance. But a tuber needs to hold on to some info to make more videos.... improve your sound (background noise is really not an issue... it bothers some people, but your outdoors. Lol) and your SOLID. Maybe ask Putnam give u some advise on improving sound. Thank you for your wisdom! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I'm guessing you're in the Triad. Here in Charlotte, we are closer to an 8A/9B. I am going to grow mine next year in those plastic kiddie pools you can get at Walmart grocery stores for around $8. If I can ever move up to my redwood preserve in Stokes Co., I have a few acres of bottomlands I can easily flood for a farm to fork supply. Any suggestions for a "gourmet variety?" It was supposed to be a nice creekside grove of 1,200 dawn redwoods, but the beavers have destroyed that scenario. This is the next best one I can think of.
Is there anywhere to get seeds without buying online ? If not Where can you buy different types of rice ? Also, how do you recollect seeds to sow the next year ?
Brie! That's totally cool! Yo inspired me to grow wheat this year and now I just have to grow rice. I love the look of the Black Madras...it is just as pretty as Vertigo Penesedum that I paid way too much for. Thanks for the great content.
Hi Brie, i live in the tropics (Republic of Panama). I have harvested peppers, tomatoes, cucumber, watermelon and now, i want to try with rice as imported wild rice is so expensive here... i'll try using wicking tubs so i can have the plants with water all the time!
Throughly enjoyed this video. You're doing an awesome job. I already have my rice seed. Just waiting on time to plant. I live in zone 8a. We've been through 5 bags of soil3 so far.
No you have to thresh and winnow. I will make a video when the seed gets to the harvest stage with my rice expert friend Dewey, who introduced me to the process.
Will the bugs attack the newly sprouted rice? Also I raise Japanese coturnix quails and have a large container full of their poop. Will that be ok to use and also pour like organic potting soil? I’m thinking of growing my own rice outdoors in the summer and add some rice fish so the mosquitoes won’t get out of control 😂
thanks for the info. i've wanted to grow rice for a long time and i stumbled on your video. looks like the info i've needed to get started this next summer, LORD willing. happy new year
Thanks a lot for this video! It’s very encouraging! I’m a Hare Krsna, so we all really like Basmati rice the best! Where would I be able to get Basmati rice seed? Have you tasted your rice? Do you know how to make brown rice to white rice? Thanks again! Hare Krsna
Hi! Super thankful for this video! My wife and I own an Indoor Sustainable Food Growing Program and operate out of a temperature controlled greenhouse. We are really interested in growing wild rice. We would love to connect and consult with you on our rice journey.
Is Rex Rice considered to be an upland rice? I'm wondering if you could plant in the ground in rows and water with drip irrigation? Also, how does it taste? It seems to mostly be sold for duck feed.
Rex is best grown in saturated soil. It probably could be grown with drip irrigation- I don’t have any irrigation in my property. I started growing this variety because I could source seed.rice is really hard to find which is unfortunate.
When do you know the rice is ready to be harvest? When it turns brown? Do you have to handpick the rice? I tried to grow rice in the past two years but they never even germinate. I still have some rice seeds from MIgardener so I’m going to try again this year after watching your video. Thanks. I just bought your book and love your videos as well!
I will post videos when that time comes around. But yes the seed turns from green to yellow and that the time for eating harvest. I’ve been letting my seed get fully mature to save for replanting the past few years.
I think you're doing a beautiful job maybe some people don't like it but I think it's excellent I wish I met someone like you that no sign of growth things to right way but no I've finally decide of the dozen I scooped up up that's life but you keep up the good work maybe one day I get single oh my God I'm just me good job
Hello Brie! Thank you for your help! I'm in Tennessee...close to Alabama and just bought some wild rice from Walmart. I put some seeds in water and they are sprouting now. I want to transplant them and was worried they could dry out & die. Have you grown wild rice before and do the same rules apply??? Many thanks ...just subscribed!
Hope it worked out for you. Have U seen rice grown floating on lakes and even in mangroves with sea water. Every nutrient to maintain health is in sea water even calcium. I have grown tomatoes in sea sand and tomatoes are fantastic. Some farmers near ocean California grow sweet potato in sea sand with enormous crops. Aeroponics is my next venture with my home garden but with diluted sea water. There is great vids on potatoes with aeroponics but I want to try drip method from just a plastic bottle suspended above. I'm in Australia and on Sunshine coast with good weather but ferals get in and destroy my seedlings. Have almost given up but hopefully these crims will be stopped soon.
@@apsutton336 Sounds good! I am originally from Seal Beach California and yes I have seen people grow vegetables directly on the shoreline. I think you should do well!
Great Video lots of information. I wish some people here in Australia Did Video's like yours but for Australian Weather/Heat and the some Information you give, like where to buy and when to seed. All the Information I can find is from the USA

Great video, my wife is from korea, grew up on a farm in the southern tip of korea on an island. She will be happy to see this video . How many pots to grow enough rice for one person to eat all year long? Any ideas? Sure would appreciate your advice.
You would need a lot of pots. My goal is not to never have to buy tics but rather to experience growing a plant that is not normally a part of the garden.
Yes water after sowing and once it germinates keep the container saturated. Since it’s a pot with no holes it is easy to do. Once it develops Seed heads form you can stop watering to allow the seed to mature and dry.
@@BrieThePlantLady Thanks for you quick reply. I just found your channel today but have subscribed and can't wait to add rice to my garden. I'll probably follow your example and do pots in the front as decoration. Not sure if July is too late as my first frost is usually mid- October and I still need to order seeds. I think this will be a next year project for sure. Looking forward to watching more of your video.

Couple weird comments

I think growing rice looks amazing. Lots of varieties and the climate needed…
I use rice hull in place of perlite in my outdoor crops. It works well as a mulch or for poultry bedding, too.
I have 2 acres, VERY dark loam soil, and red clay subsoil, in Zone 6a, with extremely poor drainage and full sun. I'm looking for a staple crop for about 0.1 acre of my land that can handle waterlogged soil, and possibly consume water. I'm also going to grow wheat so I'll need something that can take up excess water.
Plus my wife really loves rice. Definitely going to give rice a try.
*Jesus Christ is Lord & He is coming soon. Don’t take that* 💉
U can also raise your garden bed of the soil isn’t sutitable:
@@earthangeltribe Did that as well. So far it's going... alright. It's been dryer than anticipated so I've had to water rigorously during the dry periods.
