This is what I do: fill the jar with substrate, put a small layer of dry verm on top of substrate, put a layer of foil over the jar, after the foil put on the cap w holes/ring onto the jar. pressure cook/boil and then inoculate through the hole in the jar which will poke through the foil underneath. I hope that wasn't confusing and this method has worked countless times.

1. Fill Pf substrate to jar lid...Like where the threads of glass end. (You should have like an inch or two of space from the top to the sub. level)

2. Put dry verm. on the top...this creates a contam barrier you could say...(Verm. contains no nutes.blahblahblah)

3.Put on metal lid then the ring.

4.Cover with foil. (This keeps water from falling in the jar's holes on the lid)

The coffee filter thing you don't have to do. It's just an extra filter.

If you want to use it...Put it on before the foil and secure it on with a rubber band.

I hope that articuled and written well enough to all make sense.

GL

Microporus tape :thumbup:

It comes in first aid kits and you can find it in the first aid aisle.

But IMO, you don't need it...But it doesn't hurt to have it :grin:

Also, leave the foil off after injecting with spores so you will have better air exchange.

You don't have to do a lot of things, it's just a secondary precaution is all.

It helps somewhat filter air when it comes in after it's been boiled and you let it cool. (If you had no holes, it's seal due to neg. pressure.)

I know just what you want another way to do it(lol) do the standard way of preparing the pf jars you know the mix almost to the top with about an inch open for the dry vermiculit, put the dry on then your lid(the thing with the rubber on it)I put 5 holes in mine 4 in the standard places plus one in middle, cover with foil, pc for 60 min at 15 psi. cool down over night. prepare clean place to do the next part. take foil off inoculate with spore print lc what ever you are using, then cover holes with micropore tape set in inncubator, when you see first sign of growth remove the tape from the holes. Everyone has thier way of doing this, you can try different ways till you find one you like. I also have alikn for you that has tips to help speed up colonization
