Is this Quart jar sideways going to work?
    #18972186 - 10/13/13 01:31 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hi everyone,

I just went out an exchanged some half pints I bought for my PF tek (weren't correct kind) with some quarts I plan to use in the future with grain.

Question is, can I lay these on the side as shown in the picture?

I can elevate them with more jar lids if necessary. But I really don't want to buy another PC when I only used this one, one time.

Any thoughts?

You can do that if you elevate them a couple inches above the water level. I did it a few times before I finally bought me a big pc. I could only get 1 qt in there on its side. I took me all day to do 6 qts! It sucked!

Nice. Thanks for the tip. I will add a couple more layers of lids before doing this.

Can you or anyone point me in the direction of your favorite tek to use for grain spawn?

I have been reading, but would be nice to hear which ones work for people. Again, I am just starting out and have a lot more to learn.

Thanks!

it is very important that you do NOT stack jars on top of each other in that manner.

You may place a jar on its side, but only if it is on top of a jar that is standing straight up. Or under nothing at all.

No it's not. Why do you say this?

As long as you're not getting water in your filter you're fine.

These are the TEKs I use. They're all as cheap and easy as possible, just like your mom.
