BRF cake quetion... (pics)

So I did my first batch of BRF cakes a min ago (dec 8) I did about 40 and I have a mix range of 100% colonized to 25% colonized... I prob only have about a dozen that are fully their and they only hit 100% a couple of days ago. Here is my dilemma, I shot up these cakes with 3 different types of spores, so I was hoping to move them all on to the next stage at the same time how long can i wait for a 100% colonized cake to sit around for the others to catch up before it will go bad? ive read most people wait 48 hours after a cake has fully colonized to move on... will they start going bad if i wait longer than that.
Also I was wondering why these guys took so long... since this was my first go, looking back i think it might be because I used wide mouth half pint jars, I drilled four holes, then sealed them with silcone II to mke injector ports, then i drilled a single hole in the middle that I covered with microscopic tape... did i not leave enough holes for gas exchange that would explain the long wait time? I had them in a darkened closet (no light) and was capable of keeping the heat between 77-82, temperature didnt really change more then 2-3 degrees a day... here are some pics...
also I tried not to check on them to much to not let light in, how much light exposure do you usually allow when checking on them when colonizing... when I use to work with trees, i used a green head lamp to do work in the dark. does a green head lamp work the same with these guys...
