hey, this will be my third grow, im about to try wbs and i have a few q's. i dont have any tyvek, but i have about 10000 coffee filters. would it work if i just used abunch of those?
when i inoculate, do i just poke through the filter that i have on top, then cover with a piece of tape? i plan to spawn to coir and then case with mgmc. and, i think thats it right now, please lend your advice, i really appreciate it. im tryin to get some good results to save up for a festival comin up. if any old hands have any good tips, i need em! thanks again!

just wait and buy agars new lids (when they come out) 
cause doesn't sound like you know what you're doing....
anyways tyvek between lid and jar. micropore tape over the holes.
micropore tape: can find anywhere (walmart drug stores etc...)
tyvek: hardware stores in huge rolls (but you can use US postal envelopes free but illegal to use for anythin gother than mailing)

please, dont insult me, i may not be as advanced, but im a smart guy and i have good common sense. ive got everything else down well, from reading multiple posts and teks. i just wasnt sure whether the tyvek was completely necessary. i really appreciate everybodys help, but im not an idiot just because i havent grown as much as you. and i cant wait to order something, the wbs is soaking as we speak. gotta do it today. if there is something completely wrong with how im doing this, id like to know. this is a learning experience for me, so please, teach.

I dont know if this has happened to anyone else I'm sure at some point it has but I just cracked open a jar the other day and noticed between the lid and layer of tyvek there was green mold growing. any ideas/ thoughts on why? I layered coffee filters and foil over my lid setup, with micropore tape. I'm not tryin to hijack your thread but just my opinion I left the tyvek out of my last batch so I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope I guess.
