I can see so much green... That substrate looks incredibly contaminated. :/

 fail, Heating pads have no purpose in mycology, show me where you found out that was a good idea...

then cold shocked it
you're growing cubes right? they're tropical, Show me where it told you to cold shock cubes, they don't need that it's just slowing shit down

air pump tube running in and one out
more fail
Quote:
for fae he fans at least threetimes a day
That's not FAE in a tub that small you would have to fan like 3-10 times an hour for FAE...

was using little led lights but now just uses the light thats in his room
There's nothing mushrooms like about red light, they like the sun, buy a daylight bulb in the 6500K range, the small spiral ones or a tube one 26W IE 100W incandecent equivalent or better and leave it about a foot away from the top of your fruiting chamber
I'm fruiting in my place at 62F and things are fine 
Your substrate looks contaminated as hell I would throw it away ASAP then go watch the lets grow mushrooms videos and start over and forget everything you think you know about mushrooms. Sorry if all this is harsh but this is the worst I have seen this week.
I would like to see you turn things around and get good at cultivating mushrooms. Take a look at the lets grow mushroom dvd and the first link in my signature for starters.

also We're not grammar nazis but it sure does help if you can make some sentences and spell some things right just so people can understand you, we don't care if you can't talk like you went to Harvard but jesus christ.

I thought a tub in tub needed an aquarium heater and water, not a heating pad/mat. That substrate looks so gross and moldy.
 Don't try to take prints unless you're familiar with Agar.

a tub in a tub isn't even a fruiting chamber it's a mushroom casket.

for one its not green thts just how the pic looks,for two im on my phone which is a pain to write on aready so this is the grammar you get.for two the heating pad in under the tub for heat because where they are growing is a very cold place and where he is it snows alot with out the haeting pad they would be about 55 degrees.and i have read alot on cold shocking them people putting them in fidges i read alot of people saying that on this site i have also seen that video.They cant be gown in a open room so they are in tubs .I would also like to say i have researched alot and a ton on this site almost every thing i have done i got from this site.now they might not get enough fae but have gotten a ounce dry multple times using this exact tek the problem is i usually get alot of skinny and not a whole lot of fat .And i was using the heating mat because when it was warmer when i started it keep them at 74 degrees

well the heating matt is making your moisture condensate which is giving you skinny fruits/dry subs

they teach kids how to research in middle school since the 80s so even if your a dropout you know how to look for things less than 3 years old even if it had to be in an encyclopedia.

grow kits. not being able to fruit in the middle of the room, all sounds like disaster to me.
If you want them to look good grow them as per a good reliable proven peer review tried and tested TEK says and do it to the T, lot's of kids come on here and post things they've tried some work most people only post their success not their failure so you're getting biased results, That's why you look for a proven TEK one with lot's of people behind it not just some kids posts on cold shocking which doesn't even apply to this species, cubes are tropical...
Try the BRF/PF tek or some of violets in vitro grain jars
or make in-vitro bags.
