SFD too dry?
    #21956087 - 07/17/15 01:09 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I plan on doing a sclerotia grow and plan on using a sythetic filter disc as my jar lid.my question is do I run the risk of my grains being too dry with the disc.i will be nocking up the jars via agar wedge so no need for a injection port.the jars will be sitting idle for months ahead waiting for sclerotia growth.

This is how it is usually done so it should not be a problem. I would however avoid a massive gas exchange hole. You really don't need much. I use a 1/4" hole with a piece of SFD silicone over top. It's worked great and hasn't caused any to dry up.

That is my question.can I just use the entire disc as my jar lid since I don't need a injection port.

He just told to to make a lid with a 1/4" hole and use RTV silicone to seal a piece of SFD to cover the whole, and I second this.

If you go down round the bend in the river,
You're gonna find a few changes been going down there.

If you go down to the gas-powered flatland,
Where most of the people just think that they're free,
Remember the peace that you had on the mountain,
Come back to the love that you had here with me...

You can use the whole disk combined with the lid. If you use the disk in lieu of a lid it will all dry out.

No matter what you're going to need the 1/4 inch hole so you may as well just take the first suggestion.
