Once your substrate is well mixed and moist, begin filling your prepared jars with the substrate. Don't pack the mixture down, just loosely fill the jar.

Leave about 1/2 inch of space between the substrate and the top of the jar. I just filled my jars up to the threading for the lid.

Be sure to wipe up any moisture/substrate on the 1/2" inside and outside the jar.

Fill the rest of the jar with dry vermiculite. This is to make a barrier between the substrate and contaminants in the air.
