Did you have any luck with reseeding your rice? I wonder if any just came back on its own.

I might try growing some rice this year just out of curiosity. I have brown & black rice started in the house which is doing fine so far tho it is only 2 weeks old.

I planted some whole grain (with germ) rice and that is growing. The brand I got from the grocery store is called "Lundberg." It might be in the health food section.

Wild rice is roasted so won't grow. I managed to get some fresh seeds and they are growing. I posted pix at the link below.
