Log Inoculation Sealing Wax
Features | Food grade; low melting point |
This clear food-grade paraffin wax is ideal for sealing holes in inoculated logs. One pound of wax is enough to seal about 10 logs with some variability, depending on the size of the logs and whether you choose to seal the ends. (Sealing the holes is critical to success because it protects the spawn from drying out and from contamination.)
If inoculating logs in fall and applying wax in temps below 50 degrees F, daubers and wax will harden quickly. Therefore, we recommend a plugged-in crock pot (vs. a pot taken from the stove) for dipping.
Optional add-ons:
Please note that 50 lb. bags of wax are not eligible for free shipping.

Low-Melting Point Wax works great
It comes in small pelletized form, so you can quickly pour out the amount you need, followed by easy melting in a double-boiler or slow cooker. Great for covering plugs and the ends of freshly-innoculated logs.

Easy to use!
Product was straightforward and so easy to melt and use. I'm having no trouble at all after inoculation and plug insertion. My logs are being colonized quite nicely!

Thanks for the great review, Scott! We really appreciate your support.
Good stuff, must have
You must use this wax. It becomes liquid at a higher temperature and dries clear so you can see mycelium growing under it. Also because it takes higher heat it isn't going to come off in the heat of summer easily.
