shell waster Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Does wild rice need moving water to grow? I was thinking of planting some until I was informed it needed moving water. I have hunted hundred of wild rice lakes and the water does seem pretty clean.

birddog Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 shell .. good question .. I'm thinking it doesn't need to be moving from the experience I have hunting and fishing in northern Minnesota but i could be off base on this one...but, it's all over the place up there.

Chessie Dog Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Where's the best place to purchase wild rice? Are certain types better for different regions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shell waster Posted June 24, 2004 Author Share Posted June 24, 2004 Contact your local DU chapter and they will be able to help the best, and since they aren't selling anything they are totally honest. Most Co-op can get wild rice, Biologic sells wild rice but it's expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert II Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Will wild rice grow in Washington State? Best, Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birddog Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Hi Robert - Washington grows it commercially so I guess it will depending on the area/body of water. [ 07-12-2004, 05:40 PM: Message edited by: birddog ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
