When people imagine rice growing, they generally envision acres of water-drenched rice paddies and don’t imagine it’s possible to grow this staple crop in their own home. However, it’s possible to recreate this growing environment in your back yard, porch or on your kitchen table with an inexpensive, readily available tool --a plastic bucket. Create an ideal environment to grow smaller amounts of this staple crop that is higher in fiber while remaining low-fat.


1

Soak one package of rice seeds in a bowl filled with plain warm water for at least 12 hours before planting.

2

Fill the bottom of a plastic bucket with 4 to 6 inches of all-purpose potting soil. Pour a 4- to 6-inch layer of plain water over the soil. Remove the rice seeds from the soaking bowl and drop them into the bucket. The seeds' weight will cause them to sink to the bottom.

3

Place the bucket in an area that receives full sun throughout the day. If keeping the bucket outdoors, move it inside during cooler nights. Rice grows best in soil and air temperatures around 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

4

Monitor the water levels diligently, paying attention to not allow the water to fall below 2 inches during this early growing phase. Once the stalks reach 5 to 6 inches in height, provide a final, 4-inch layer of water to the bucket.

5

Allow the water to dissipate slowly during this final growth period. Continue to let the rice ripen until the water absorbs or evaporates, or the stalks' colour changes from green to gold, which generally takes around two weeks.

6

Harvest the rice by cutting the stalk directly beneath the heads. Wrap the stalks in newspaper and allow them to dry in a sunny area for two to three weeks.

7

Roast the rice stalks in an oven set to 180 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately one hour. Allow the rice stalks to cool completely before gently rubbing the heads to release the rice kernels. Rinse the kernels and cook or store.                    


Fragrant Thai Jasmine rice is the most well know long-grain variety from the country.

Small vases or bowls of the growing rice makes a great table decoration.

For years Thailand is called the "Rice Bowl of Asia".

Rice is the basic staple food of the entire Thai Kingdom and has so assumed a great importance in the religion and various traditions of the country.

Jasmine rice is scented and very tasty.

Both White and Brown varieties are available, the brown rice is a natural source of bran and becoming more popular in recent years.
