Ken,
I take it you don't use paddy fields. I don't know your climate.
What is "plant early" in terms of temperature?
Do you use irrigation or do you have enough rain?
What are the best types of rice if you don't use paddy fields?
Do you flood the field at any time?
I did a few garden-scale trials, but the rice didn't make it
through the weeds.

I've tried growing rice the last couple years. Useful stuff I've learned =
1) Plant as early as possible
2) Direct-seeding is usually better -- all the transplants we did died.
3) When weeding, make sure to keep grass under control -- once grass gets large, it's hard to tell it apart from the rice.
