When it comes to fruiting BRF Pf-Tek jars: What's more fool-proof? A water tub or spawn to bulk with coir?

I think i'll go for a single hole in the center.
I like the idea of not having to wait for consolidation.
I have 230ml jars, is a single hole sufficient?

Thanks.
I am going with a dry verm barrier. I want to keep it as simple as possible with the least amount of supplies.

I am confused. I've read several threads about PF-Tek and none tells me about polyfill.

There's nothing wrong with your posts. You just wanted to help.
Unfortunately, your assumptions were wrong, but this happens from time to time.

Warning: Noob question ahead.

What's the point in rolling BRF cakes in verm after dunking?
I mean we're supposed to mist them anyway. Can't be for the sole purpose of water supply, can it?

I am going for a single, centered hole in the lids of my Pf-Tek jars.
Using a nail and hammer.
Is this nail too thin?

The needle should fit. I am concerned about GE since almost all teks say 2 or 4 holes.

The benefit of one centered hole is that you don't have to guess if consolidation has finished.
And maybe less attack vectors for contam.
No?
The Updated Pf-Tek Guide says that CBK suggests to use a single hole. And i think he knows his stuff.
Quote:
CBK Suggests using 1 hole in the center of the lid so you use less spore solution and once you see colonization you know the cake is almost ready.

I have a spore print and i want to make a syringe for innoculating Pf-jars.
I only got blunt needles like these:

Will these work or do i need needles with a sharp tip?

Thanks.
I am thinking about the syringe making process. Disloging spores from the print and so on.
