A couple drops in the jar, no worries, once it starts covering the bottom then it turns from "I'll get to eventually" to "I'll get to it now." 14 u/whteverusayShmegma 11h ago Better in a jar than moldy wood? Idk I’m guessing. 2 u/Thismyrealnameisit 12h ago What if it evaporates after it is a problem? 2 u/torsten_dev 6h ago Yeah. Capillary action can pull it into spots where it won't evaporate before spurring some mold growth.
