Got it (I think)--poly for the vent hole, RTV Silicone for the inoculation holes?  Plastic lids are a good idea.  I have a few dozen Kerr 1/2 pint wide mouth jars but only have the standard lids for them--know anyplace that sells plastic lids that will fit em?

Camelton,

quick question re: your self-healing inoculation holes...

I thought one of the benefits of having the 4 holes as described in the PF tek was to allow for gas exchange.  By putting silicone over the holes, aren't you eliminating or limiting the possibility of this exchange?

Also, I wasn't clear from your explanation what you were descibing.  Do you put silicone on each side of the lid with poly in the middle?
