So what is a 'discard' loaf?

When you feed your sourdough starter , some of it gets " Discarded " into the trash before feeding .
You can save that and use it in all kinds if things . Pancakes , waffles , bread and rolls .

When making your discard bread, is the discard strong enough for proper rising or do you have to “activate” it?

Yes

My starter is 8 years old and plenty active, even the discard is active and strong. If you feed discard you will have to wait for it to rise at peak.
