MP Tape!!
    #5523613 - 04/17/06 07:11 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

For those of you using Micropore tape with your tyvek jar solutions...do you place the tape before or after you PC your jars? If after, do you place it before or after inoculation? Thanks!

The second piece seals the noc hole, which looks tiny, but is huge to a microbe. You could squirt a tiny dab of silicone to seal the needle hole, or any other method you want to, including non-breathable tape. In my experience, the second piece of micropore blocks air exchange for that hole, anyway. You do need to have another hole in the lid for air exchange, whether it is filtered by micropore, polyfill, tyvek, etc.

Yes, put micropore on all holes in your lids, before you PC. You must keep contams out of there while the jars are cooling and during the period before you inoculate.

Is it safe just to inoc directly through the tyvek and just cover the jar with foil in the incub?

In my experience, yes, it is safe. But most growers would disagree with me, so stick any old tape over the inoc hole in the tyvek, squirt a dab of silicone, etc. There are a hundred ways to seal the inoc. hole, you'll have plenty of breathability through the rest of the tyvek, assuming you are covering the entire lid.

Let me qualify my comment that it would be safe. The tinfoil cover would have to be loose, and the tinfoil could not be removed until the jar is colonized. The reason it is safe is that contams in still air can only fall, so the tinfoil "cup" that covers the top of the jar will allow air exchange, but will prevent contam laden dust from falling on top of your jar. But since it is trivial to seal the inoc hole, it's better to give it that extra insurance. External moisture, or any organic material can permit contams to work their way up inside the tinfoil, so even with the tinfoil shield, you're safer to have the entire top of the jar sealed as well.
