    Did you make your own starter, or did you buy it? I’ve been doing a lot of baking lately, but I haven’t done any sourdoughs because I don’t have a starter, I’m too impatient to babysit a new starter right now, but I also don’t want to buy a starter because I could make one if I were to somehow discipline myself to do so, lol. So I’m wondering how you acquired yours, hoping to get a bit of inspiration.

      Made my own, starting from whole wheat flour. Takes a couple weeks to get strong.

        Yep, that’s how I remember it, daily feedings until it’s strong enough to rise a loaf, about two weeks. I think I’ll wait a while until events lighten up a bit and try then. Thank you for your response.
