Tyvek - Finding the injection holes
    #12257731 - 03/23/10 07:23 PM (14 years, 9 days ago)

In some of the pint jars four small holes were poked into the lids. Wild bird seed will be used as the spawn, and the tyvek is supposed to go on after the lid. That is:

1-lid
2-tyvek
3-Ring

This seems to me like shooting in the dark with the needle trying to find those small holes underneath the tyvek. Is it ok to change the order and put the lid on after the tyvek?

That would work fine.

It is not important to have the lid seal to the glass. Many people invert the lids to prevent them from sealing anyway.

you put the tyvek over the lid so that when you shake the jars moisture does not get on the tyvek which will cause contams. i prefer the self-healing inoculation ports to tyvek anyway. you can just go to an auto parts store and get RTV silcone gel. its nice stuff.

The way I do it is shine a light through the space from your lid to wbs up towards the lid and you will see the light come out through the hole. Mark the tyvek where the light escapes from.

find your holes before you tighten down the ring
then mark them with a sharipe, now you know where your holes are

just dont tighten too much or your tyvek could slip

I just use two square pieces of tyvek and the ring, I discard the lids.

kechlesurf, did you read the post above by Bom Tombadil. Do you refute that that is what happens?

Ganjabonga, how on earth do you shine a lite through a jar full of moisturized WBS? From the side? Sounds pretty complicated.

Bom, Is that silicone gel breathable though?

i use one hole with the silicone for the injection port and another hole for co2 exchange that is where a piece of tyvek or some polyfil cancome in handy check these links out

If what I said is complicated... Shining a light through your jar is hard how? Obviously your jar is not completely full. Shine the light through, and if you have a hole punched, some of the light will come through that hole. Complicated how?

Complicated because I didn't visualize what you meant. Yes, shining it through the side is what you meant. That's actually a good idea (assuming it works). Will a maglite shine through two sheets of tyvek?

I suppose I can make the needle holes a bit bigger too. They are more or less needle size right now.

Put your lid on upside down so you can feel where the holes are after you put the tyvek and ring on. I can't remember where on here I read it, but it works like a charm:thumbup:

I just realized this because the metal sticks up. Will it cut the tyvek though?

I have never had a contam caused by tyvek, how would tyvek cause a contamination?  And I have made self sealing lids with silicone but found that the process to make those is really just a waste, they do work, but i guess i am lazy and rather not make them.  And even when i did the self healing lids, i never used the metal lid, just tyvek.

Depends on how tight your tyvek is, when you PC i could put small holes in your tyvek

We have a basic pf tek that's idiot proof enough for noobs to get fucked up with their friends. 

Mycologists on the other hand grow for the love of growing.  They want to experiment with various species, substrates, and fruiting environments. They'll move on to isolate strains, attempt hybridization, and in general treat cultivation as an artform, rather than a chore that must be performed as a means to an end.  They'll work twice as hard for a ten percent gain, just for the love of perfection.  These are the ones who will isolate strains, not the dumb fucks who treat mushrooms as a drug, or even worse, a pathogen, as if mushrooms cause disease.

hmmm. I don't see how this works
The lids aren't able to screw on straight because of the tyvek layer. WTF?! Does this matter?

i do it totally different than everyone else.i put lid with holes on, seal down, then a single layer of tyvek cut directly to size of lid, then ring.when i inoculate, i simply lift up the tyvek , inject, then lay it back down.if you are working in a glove box, it shouldnt matter, i cant remember the last time i had a jar contam.the lid seal down prevents it from sliding off when inoculating.who cares if it takes some force to pry it off, unless you are a skinny 3rd grade girl, it shouldnt be a problem.

Definitely starting to think along these lines as well.

Also, going to put the tyvek below the lids so the injection holes are actually visible. Simple. If damp tyvek is going to be a problem with contams, chances are something went wrong during a previous step.
