wrapping jar filled container

I sterilized my jars and put them into a small tub a bit larger than my jars. Should I seal the container with tape or plastic wrap to keep contamination out or would this impede growth?

As long as your jars are properly sealed, they will not contaminate due to contact with outside air. Your plan would not work even if it were necessary.
Most contaminated spawn comes from bad inoculant which in turn comes from bad sterilite procedure.

I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...

Fuck me. Since I evidently have muscle memory for typing sterilite, I spend too much time in mush cult.

If you store them in a container it should be an open container or not sealed at least. You don't want to restrict gas exchange more than it already is.
