Growth stalled

Just having people over as I harvested my first cambodian, some spores dropped on the top layer. I also dunked for longer than 12 hours, prolly more 20.
The cambodian were harvested beginning this month, and have since then show no signs of any pins. Misted most days. About 6 sprays on the sides.
A week or so later I had the first harvest of the mazteks and the kenaii. These were also dunked for longer than 12h. Also some spore spill here and there trying to sync ripeness of the fewer bigger shrooms with life.
Same spray regime later, the maz and kens managed to develop tiny shrooms about 0.5-1 cm high, no black heads. These tiny ones seem to show stalled growth, the best few of these grew visibly at a snail's pace a while ago, no they look stalled too.
They all are grown on a bought full mycelium cake in a bag, brand is supagro.
Doesn't look too good for the second flush it seems. The maz and kens are doing better than the cambodians, which have a bigger spore impact area than the first 2. So I think the mycelium lost some of it's strength sporing, the spore area also seems like a no go area for it.
Temp was 26 celcius inside, humidity 99. Looks good, so the prob seems to be the spore thing and perhaps a cake that is too wet from the 15-20h dunk.
Nowhere mentioned on the grow info I got, people seem to fan these bags doing an in and out movement with the bag. The bags got 6 1/2 cm holes on each side, thought they were having enough air, still I'm doing this too now before misting. I moved them more towards the window on the table. They are orientated before a window facing ssw, sunny area in the house, they do have a mesh curtain before them though.
Hope to hear some thoughts how to boost the kits a bit, seems to take quite long for the second flush from what i remember doing before.
Seems like its recommended to peel away the finest top layer to revive the cake, not sure that works ? http://www.earthstongue.com/think-your-cakes-are-dead-think-again

You should be dunking for 24 hours between flushes and after birthing. Mushrooms are 80-90% water, which means the shorter dunk is a huge performance hindrance.
Are you misting the cake directly?

The people whom I bought it from recommend 12 hours dunking, I did a 16-20 hour dunk. They do seem to have a nice weight to them, can feel the difference 16-20h.
No mist directly on the shrooms, only on the inside of the bag. Do think I misted too much, went from 8ish sprays per bag to 4ish per day.
