doesnt the inside of the jar get exposed and ready for contamination while the other 3 holes are in the open? how can i make sure my environment is okay because frankly i dont want to build a glove box.
*is it good to have 4 holes in a 1/2 pint jar? sounds about right

You have two layers of tin foil and lift off the top layer, so the second layer remains in place. inoculate in two places and cover the holes with micropore, then inoculate twice again, also using micropore. Replace the top layer of tin foil and there you go!

yup, sterlite container, just like the ones used for fruiting chambers. You don't need any fancy arm sleeves either; just cut the holes for your arms to go in. I like that hot coffee can idea.

Do not put foil under the lid. use tyvek as a filter you can get it at the post office. The priority mail envelopes. Not the paper one just the white thin ones there free just don't take a lot if they ask just say you have several things to mail out.
Cut squares out bigger than the lid and screw it down.
Wrap the foil over the lid when you steam them and take it off when you noc them up and don't put it back on those jars need gas exchange.

If you copied the PF tek vids your suppose to put a layer of dry verm on your substrate to protect against contams..if you feel comfortable about your work area you can leave them with out the foil on them mine are doing fine *knocks on wood* with out the foil.
