Growing rice again!

[pumpkin cuddler]

Hello
Last year I put a post on here to ask if anyone knew anything about growing rice.
At the time I had managed to grow four little plants, (I found the seeds in our packet of Tesco rice).
I did get some replies but I did not follow anything more up as the plants died and I could not find any more seeds in the rice packet.
I am not very good on this internet stuff and have looked but cannot find the post I put on
There was someone who said their son grew it and would give me more advice.
Well, this year as a gift I was given a very large bag of paddy rice. So I have loads of seeds to try out and hopefully not kill off.
Please if there is anyone out there who can help with growing rice I would love to hear from you.

I cheat and grow quinoa, you use it in the same way and it's far easier to grow - I'm not sure how well suited Yorkshire is to a paddy field. Sadly it's nowhere near as nice, so if you have any luck this year please let us know.

Sounds like you might need a polytunnel & grow lamps - it is daylength sensitive...
