A little lid help please!!
    #14409927 - 05/06/11 12:03 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Hey people...Thanks for any help you can offer.  I have been growing off and on for two years and I'v had success with teh pf tek and with casing rye in the past but ended up quitting grwoing til now because I ruined most of my work by not practicing sterile procedures.  Anyhow,  I'm back to trying to grow again and I have no idea which lid style I should go with.  I've been in the forum a ton and it seems like with anything there are 200 ways to go about it.  Rather than just guessing on one I'm hoping someone can tell me what's best in their experience.  I am using rye in Ball quart jars.  Right now I have tyvek, micropore tape, metal lids and bands.  I was thinking about getting some filter disks so I won't ever have to play arond with tyvek again.  Does anyone have a tek for making a lid with filter disks, micropore tape, lids and bands?  Something they have used with success.  I see that some people use silicone as well for injection port...is it needed if I am going to just cover hole with micropore after I noc jars?

see signature. I only use SFDs

use silicone for a self-healing inoc port & ditch that ghetto tape.

not many steps at all.

drill two holes. Cut your filters. Silicone them down. Silicone the inoc point. Done. It's a lid tek for 3 different styles of lids. lol...I guess it can be a little overwhelming...

The synthetic filter discs are your best bet for grain jars.
