I used pf tek awhile back and i remember that a top layer of verm served as a filter. Now i want to try my hand at bulk. I was going to use rye for my spawn, is there anything i should know about the colonization process regarding gas exchange?

I use Bod's poly lid tek.

I haven't experienced the need to use anything else. I picked my wife's favorite pillow, cut a small hole in it, pulled a good handful of poly out of it and made all the lids i'll ever need.
Start with simple and adjust if necessary.

Go to the post office and they have these huge envelopes for free. Then trace the lid on one and cut it out.

There's a bunch of ways. Choose one that works for you. Heck I've used unmodified plastic lids just not tightened up too much when i didn't have any polyfill.
You could spend hours making rtv silicone filter patches out of tyvek, hours. Urgh!

This is exactly my experience. I have tried a lot of different lids and hours spent trying to make the "perfect" thing with RTV, etc. In the end, poke a hole in a lid and put some poly in the hole, or untighten a plastic lid 1/4 turn.

The simplest would be micropore tape imo usually 2-3 layers 👌🏾 Hasn’t failed since I started
