That's what I would do, if you are headed down that road already, try one, see how it works. I would drill and plug the hole before hand, and the sterilize the lid again afterwords, maybe this will prevent any issue. Its a good idea, They use some sort of rubber seals on blood draw tubes, and those are sterile, so I'm sure there's a way to do it. Keep us informed on how it goes, this might change the way people do things. You should do a journal.

thanks a lot. gives me some motivation to go forward. i am a little skeptical about it, i wonder why it hasn't been done before, or if it has with poor results... i'm not a compete idiot, but i'm not the smartest either..:o

good point about the rubber seals. synthetic rubber and silicone are probably contaminate resistant surfaces, so lends themselves well to sterile uses. it'd be good to cut out a step tho. is the entire reason for having tinfoil- to aid in incubation?

I believe that the tinfoil, is to provide a puncture able seal in the lid. When you put them in the pressure cooker, the tinfoil will seal the jar even with the hole in the lid, but you can then puncture it, and place a piece of tape back over to reseal it. If you used the silicone, you would prolly have to just leave the lids a little lose when you cooked them, to let the air in and out(so they don't blow up).

Congrats jollygreen!! Love to see some pics. What do you soak it in, just water? I have never read about growing out of the jars before, everything I had read in my study, had been to start the grain in the jars, then use the jars to grow in a tub. I've seen the jar grows, just not familiar with the whole process.

vertise, could you elaborate on what casings are. I'm not super experienced with defferent shroom growing tech. I've heard of casing the surface of a tub grow, how would you case the jars. Is that what they were talking about soaking themand rolling in vermiculite for? If so what do you soak them in? Water?
