You're only putting 5 jars per mono? How big are your mono's/what's your intended spawn ratio?

That's sounds good to me. I usually go for 4-6 quarts for that much sub. 5 should be perfect IMO Only question I got is why no verm?

Really? I need to try a tub like this then. I always assumed that verm was mandatory, but if you had good results then maybe I should try it! I learn something new on here every single day.

Was it a pain to find the widemouths?
I had to order store to pickup last week, only regular mouths on the shelves which I bought anyways...
Buut, Just a bandaid ... seems to simple, whats the ploy.
I drill same hole in center, and than RTV a layer of tyvek painters suit rated at .2 microns than I put another layer of rtv over that followed with another small piece.

Regardless,

no they stocked them at a local food store by the case. 14.99 for a case of 12. use tyvek envelopes. they are free from the post office. cut them down to fit over entire lid. metal ring secures them down over the medal top. u get 12 covers from 1 envelope. ive used band aids since day one. they come sterile and easy to work with. inject with spores n cover with band aid...simple

Damn, I pay just under 9.50/12
Perhaps it would be cost effective to order online.

Yea I always wanted to try just coir too on a small scale first, but I have read the verm, in addition to holding water, acts to make the substrate more "fluffy" helping the myc rip through it faster. maybe I read wrong, or remembered wrong. But hey, if it works for you, go for it!
