Ok wait wait, I'm confused. I'm not using ships, for my inoculation points, and i didn't want some medical tape on my lids for inoculation points. (if this is the only method like in the videos linked here, I will do it)
If I'm getting this right, I need to not have the poly over my lids before inoculation, but put them on after for gas exchange?
Would these disks (that i would be making from polyfill) be sterilized in the steam bath with my jars before inoculation?

Verm is hard to come by here do to illegal mushroom salesmen, inquiring about it at walmart got me the "let me get my manager" thing, even after explaining that it's for regular mushrooms they still want to take your name and shit, and I'm not trying to get in trouble just trying to grow stuff. Is there an online retailer for it, would i be put on any lists for it? I don't have any record or anything like that, I just don't like being looked at, I like my privacy to remain private ya know.
you are doing something wrong.. explaining you are using it for regular mushrooms. There should not be a conversation. Ask someone in the garden department. If they don't know: tell them to use the computer to search for it, and don't mention shit about mushrooms (they do not care about your home and garden projects=you are paranoid). If walmart doesn't have it go to home depot or lowes and they will.
ps if you are this paranoid buy your supplies in bulk and with cash

you can make it smaller, the innoc points (1/2'') 3/8'' works aswell. you can buy silicone in the paint area of walmart. make sure its 100% and up to 400 F tested.(so you can use them when you sterilize your jars)
and yes the filter disks would be sterile if they were on the lids , when you sterilized the jars.(if the lids where on)
the silicone replaces the medical things in that link.

ok, so instead of injectors ports just use standard silicone rated too 400 degrees? then after i inoculate put the polyfil filter on top? Why would I need the filter if my inoculation points are sealed?
EDIT:: ok I'm stupid, I get it now, a port for gas exchange and siliconed injector ports, thank you! A topic here discussed plastic lids and this really seems like the best solution. It only hass one inoculation point although i was going to do 4

Are there any online retailers for spore syringes that I wouldn't have to be concerned about getting shipped to my house, preferably one that doesn't use the USPS? My friend is seeming somewhat reluctant to part with syringes now, and I'm a little too far into this to just pack up and go home.

you make the lids. complete. with filter and silicone. you innoc thru the siliconed holes. the filter is to allow GE during colonization. and you can modify the lids however. just keep the concept the same, know what i mean? plastic, metal. theyre all the same. just preference on being easier or not to drill the holes.

 You sir, Thank you If there was a karma system I would be giving you all the clicks xD
EDIT:: I now have that giggly kid in a candy store feeling xD I also really need a microscope too so the sponsor page has been helpful already!  Is there a reason I can't post there? I have questions that could be answered in a current topic there. Q.Q Its ok though You all have been so helpful I really Appreciate it, and as everything is set up I'll take pictures and log it and provide my experiences to you all. And perhaps people can help with advice along the way, idk yet I haven't begun anything yet, but i expect issues. EDIT::2 So I remembered Medical Marijuana is legal in my state and went over to my local hydroponic store and there was my verm, found perlite at home depot (though it is the miracle grow kind is this bad?)
