The Last of the Mohicans.

The rest of my jars were contaminated. This was the last jar that survived and it is thriving.
I believe it was the way I performed my sterile technique. I remember that there was one jar that I worked extra hard to keep sterile and I guess this was that jar.
Lesson learned, take care of all your jars people.
So any suggestions so I could get the most out of this cake?

I always left mine open and never really had contam issues. The top layer of verm does a good job of protecting the substrate

The Dry verm barrier is plenty filter for contamination. I always injected through the tape and just left it broken on top.

Yea, I have an extra dry verm layer on top.
I did my research and found that you don't need to cover the holes as long as you are careful.
I don't have any more micro pore tape or bandaids so I was just careful to keep the upper section dry and not to tip it at any time. covered 2 of the 4 holes just to reduce open areas but left 2 open for gas exchange. It shouldn't be a problem.
