6 Qt dub tub P.E Question

Hello shoomer's got a quick question
I have a 6qt dub going with Penis envy, I transferred from a wbs mycobag into some pre-sterilized horse manure. It has been going colonizing for about 2 weeks now. It looks 99% complete with the exception of the corners not being colonized. I have been at 99% for about 7 days now.
Problem: I have aerial myc growing now, do I need to allow a few more days for the corners (i believe it's to compacted to colonize) to complete, or go ahead and fruit? Thanks!!!

post a picture of the top.. it looks pretty bad on the bottom I see metabolites and thick mycelium. those corners are not too compacted to colonize they're too wet

The only way I can get a good pic of the top is if I take the tin foil off, I was very concerned about doing this too early, as to prevent contam. You think it would be ok to take off tin foil at this point to check?

Those corners will never fully colonize. they are very wet and it looks like a bacterial contamination has a foothold in those spots
not the end of the world. many trays/tubs have some bacteria present and they still fruit ok. you have been going for two weeks? a lighter, more airy substrate will colonize in a week. those areas were too wet / compacted.
I'd put that into fruiting conditions now and see what you can get. careful because green mold appears way sooner that usual when bacterial contamination is present. plenty of fresh air for that shoe box. good luck.
