That's the difference between gas exchange and fresh air exchange.

Co2 is produced by the myc and as it builds up it gets pushed out the filter.
This is my understanding at least.




I believe you’re correct. Colonizing mushrooms don’t need a lot of O2 but too much CO2 is detrimental to the colony.




Ah, this makes sense guys.

This is essentially how I understood it as well but I guess I had always kind of assumed that small amounts of O2 entered thru our filters

Thanks!

Small amounts of O2 probably do enter but it’s not what is critical AFAIK.

I'm sure small amounts do, but they aren't intended to.

I'm sure room pressure and air currents push air and contams through filters
all the time, but their intention is to allow gas out of the jar while providing
protection from such air currents and their spore load

Right on, makes sense.

I'm all excited to use these lids this way now! I'm glad I have a bunch without holes. I've done bottle grows with unmodified lids many times but not spawn with the plastic caps.

It's funny when I started out with grains I originally just flipped the lid upside down and loosened the band.

Thanks for the tip Hobbit GDF! That sounds like an nice option i will look into.

@ mushpunx, Pastywyte is correct some tin foil over the top should be good. i used to secure them with rubber bands casue when i first started they would fall off, but if you crimp the shit out of them along the edges of the lid they should be fine.
