Micropore tape and moisture loss
    #13027481 - 08/09/10 03:53 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

Does micropore tape trap moisture in a pf jar?

If the mycelium seems a little wet, is it advised to remove the tape so as to increase moisture loss?  Or will this have no effect?

(Yes, there is a dry verm layer.)

Thank you!

take the tape off, you don't need to leave it on there after you knock up the jar.

Theres no need for micropore tape,tyvek,polyfill,or filter disks when working with PF jars.The dry vermiculite is your contaminant barrier and is all that is needed to keep the nasties out.If you live in a disgusting trash and mold filled house then you may want to use micropore tape...but if you live in a disgusting trash and mold filled house then you need to re think of the way you live.

Take it off is my 0.02 cents.
