The rice is actually started in a greenhouse in flats. It looks like lush grass growing in there. Not sure if the farmers wait til it's a certain height to put it out in the fields, or if it's dependent on the weather. The weather fluctuates wildy here. Right now it is mainly in the 70's, but last week it got back down to the 40's.
