I will likely just try the monotub next time and try a mix of spawn bags and break up jars (since I already have the tools).
Anyhow, I just picked most of the shrooms and will be giving the cakes a grace period until tonight to finish a lot of unripe (but close) shrooms. I did let a lot of them go too long, as I didn't realize how quick these monsters would grow, especially after weeks (with an incubator) in the jars. So I have a small mess of spores in the chamber, but do not believe this will be a problem? Or should I remove any perlite/foil that contains the spores?
And now with the picked mushrooms: Should I worry about cleaning them, since they have spores on them? Also, I will have a nice dehydrator tomorrow, are shrooms fine to just sit out until I get it, ~40 hours from now?
Thanks again!

You can dry the mushrooms with spores on them. The last batch I had, there was a bit of a spore-explosion because I picked them late. No big deal tho, I just dried them in my dehydrator for 12 hours until cracker dry. They taste pretty bad tho compared to normal dried cubes.
In your case, don't just leave them sitting around, place them on a dish and use a fan to air-dry them. Then when you use your dehydrator, they should be almost completely dry. Remember, before you store them, make sure the stem and cap crack in half with little resistance. You don't want any squishy stems/caps when storing, it will lose potency over time and may begin to rot.

Listen to pasty. A sgfc should be in the middle of an open room.
For next time you can actually wash spores off fruits. I do it EVERY time I get a sporesplosion. It's never ruined fruits, it's way better tasting, and better looking than leaving fruits black.
