How long can I keep a WBS Jar before inoculating?

I ask because my PC can only handle 1 jar at a time. So I'm either going to have to buy a bigger PC or do the jars one at a time and inoculate when all 5 are finished. I'm going to be using Citric's self healing lid TEK so I'm pretty sure I can get away with letting jar 1 cool for an extra 4-5 days, but it doesn't hurt to get some expert opinion.
Please tell me it's okay, I really wanna move on from cakes.

They can sit for weeks if properly constructed and sterilized.
What are you using for GE filters? Tyvek? Double up, if so.
I highly suggest you invest in a bigger PCer. If you're serious about this, you can't go wrong with All American PCers, they're impeccably constructed.

I'm using Easy Felt since it's more readily available for me. Which I'm actually worried about cause I couldn't even get a hold of the stiff kind and got some cloth like thingy. It's the same material though so I should be fine, right?
And I just picked up a 23QT so the Felt's my only worry now...

I've never used felt.
I'd rather use tyvek that felt, but that's just me. I know tyvek works for me.
Plenty have had success with felt, but I just hope you don't have the wrong kind.

Stamets advises to inoculate immediately after PCing. I would advise the same, your contam rates are going up for every day your jars sit around. I would resterilize before inoculating if you still plan on using them.

Maybe overkill, but certainly not a bad idea.
