You want high CO2 levels during colonization. Having open holes in the foil will allow too much air to escape and cause CO2 levels to drop, which will slow down growth.
You're better off just replacing the foil now. How's the growth so far, any pics?

Right.....well I've never covered any tiny holes with tape, except to experiment, and have had great results both ways. Coir don't give a fuck.

Nice trays! Do you usually line them with a trash bag or something similar?
I've read mycelium can eat through the aluminum if spawned directly to it. And also, as the sub shrinks, you could be getting a bit of side pins.
Either way, looks like you'll be busy. You might need two SGFC's to fit all of them!!

Bucket tek'd coir works great! 
I save pasteurization for poo based substrates only.
Coir sounds like a miracle!
i gave up on bulk tray growing after trying pasteurization and ending up with very contaiminated trays.
But if casing is really as easy as cheese grating cakes over water-saturated coir. Damn, im in next time!

What you're grating cakes for a casing? No no just use coir or coir/verm.
Coir doesn't give a shit seriously you can bring is to field capacity with hot water and use it for a casing.

There are still a lot of uncolonized portions of coir on the surface. It needs a couple more days. And you birth cakes, not monotubs.

Okay let me rephrase that. I'm putting that thing in a SGFC do I take it out of the tray or leave it in?
