FP's 1/2 gallon jars....
    #14296820 - 04/15/11 05:34 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Hey all, it's been a while, I know. I took a break from the fungi scene and have just decided to try again, only this time with extra gusto! I purchased a Series I flow hood (too lazy to mess with making one,) petri dishes and a slough of 1/2 gallon jars. The jars have me a bit stimeyed. Seeing as these jars are bigger I have questions as to the air exchange. FYI- they have 110mm, plastic lids. About what size hole(s) should I use for proper gas exchange in these brutes? I searched, but no-one has covered this as of yet. Come to think about it, i recall RR mentioning something somewhere before, but you must know how that can be!

Danke in advance!

I use 1/4" holes for half gallons.
If you lay them sideways they colonize better, more surface area for gas exchange.
But mine generally do just fine standing up.

There we go, that's what i needed :smile: The good doctor has spoken. Thank-you for your quick response and the tip. You're good people :smile:

Oh, wait. How many 1/4 inch holes? Just one? Thanks again

Yeah, just one, I use regular grain lids.
...but don't try to start half gallons with spores or agar, you want g2g.

Ahhhh, ok, thanks for that. I guess I would've had a big contam issue on my hands. I have 30 of those jars to do. Guess I'll have to get some regular jars and filters then. I have time. I'm still setting up my flow hood and clean room. Maybe I'll document this better than my last attempts.

Thanks again Doc-T! You da man!

I like pints for grain masters, they colonize quickly and fit well in your hand.
