Couldn't something locally available be subbed for rice hulls? You just need something organic that doesn't soak up water, like sunflower seeds or maybe even uncrushed whole grain wild rice (???). Just brainstorming. There isnt anything magical about rice hulls is there?
Jim - good ideas there. Seeds are aplenty here. The Chinese certainly don't find anything magical about rice hulls...save for the fact that they are a good fire starter since they burn easily!
