Like they said ^^^^^^ only put tape over the holes if you use 3M micro-pore tape, because it can breathe for gas exchange and most people consider it optional as the dry verm lake makes a pretty good filter.

Next time you should only sterilize them when you know you'll be able to knock them up within the next 8-24 hours. They're slowly losing sterilization, changing moisture content and giving possible contams a chance to spread ahead of your myc.

If it's your only spore syringe I wouldn't use it on those jars. I sterilize new BRF cakes and noc them up as soon after they are cool as possible - minimum 8 hours later. Just my opinion though, they may still be fine, but if you're new you want to set yourself up with the best possible chances. There are so many other things that could go wrong. It would suck to noc up already contamed jars.:mushroom2:

Follow this word for word and you won't have any problems:



Many people skip using a glovebox for PFTek.

A glovebox can only increase your chances of success.

A SAB is better for this hobby than a GB because the gloves are attached to you and not the box.

Making it possible to flame sterilize your tool outside the box between transfers.

Also when people try to "seal" their GBs, the spots that they missed(like around the lid) will constantly suck air in and out with your movements.

This will negate the "still air environment"....build a SAB.
