No sunlight is needed. a 12/12 cycle with 6500K source has proven to be optimal, and you probably won't get that much of a boost from any sunlight. If you are set on it, just put it by the window. But, I have heard that direct sunlight is not good for colonizing jars, don't know about fruiting substrates.

   Introducing: FAE (CO² level drop) by birthing the cake, evaporation (slight RH drop+misting) and maybe a little direct sunlight-beam stress, and it will pin if it is proper consolidated. But im pretty sure it will pin, even without the sunbeam-trigger. CFL Bulb with 6500Kelvin is the best choice. Not expensive, and in combination, with a timer, just the easyest way to go.

if you want to use sunlight Indirect would be best. I dont think you really want the sun shining directly on your fruiting cakes.

True, it is not necessary - but it may help. I have done it with my cakes in the past and was very pleased with the results, though it may vary to some degree.
And yes, direct sunlight through a window is what I also used, it is not necessary to take the tub outside. Indirect sunlight is also good, for longer periods.

Yeah I just forgot to take my cam with me when I checked on em last night they are getting huge with a variety of darkbrown, gold and even a couple albino looking caps! with new pins still popping up everywhere I really worry if the cakes have enuff hydration to supply all these pins.
I'll snap some pictures later today when I check on em

You should be fine as long as you mixed the substrate to sufficient moisture content and have correct humidity in your fc.
If you feel the cakes are drying out too much you can put some dry verm on top of them and pour a little water on the verm or mist it well until it is moist. The cake will suck up moisture from the verm and you can re-wet it if/when you feel necessary.

Ah I didn't realize you missed a day of misting, that will dry out the cakes to a degree.
But they are looking great otherwise
