If you can stand in a room with just a T-shirt and no jacket then your spawn will be OK out of the grow tent. High heat equals greater chance of contams taking over! Room temp is perfect for growing and temp changes at night to day are even beneficial for growing spawn and fruits. A 6500k cool white light is all you need on a 12/12 cycle

All so would you recommend me taking it out that cardboard box as it's in a see thru tub and Iv seen that they can grow in wards so I left them in a box a little over the hight of the plastic carton there in ?

Put it by a window with some indirect light if that is possible. Take it out of the cardboard because light an Gas Exchange are important for good mycelium growth. What kind of spawn are you growing? Brf, grain? How do you plan to fruit?

It doesn't have to be right by the window just where it will get some indirect light. I've grown a kit in a mycobag on top of the fridge an gotten great results just I didn't know anything of growing. All that matters really is proper an clean spawn! Proper sterile procedures humidity and air exchange! God luck buddy!

Looks good so far I see some rhizmorphic mycelium growth and it seems happy just try and keep your temps around room temp and not anything drastically hot! It makes an environment for contamination to thrive in!

Those flakes are the verm which was used as a casin layer over your substrate. It retains moisture and acts as a filter as well to prevent contam growth. Notice the holes in the bag are for gas exchange. And I notice thru the side of the plastic tray under that verm layer is mycelium growth that looks like white roots everywhere
