Primordia, when to stop spraying?

So my friend went overseas and got a growkit, yes, both of us know how much these are frowned upon; but due to the time restraints of his travels this was his only option. So please, refrain from the "your problem is a growkit" jokes, though, he hasn't had any problems yet so that doesn't really apply :P
Its been exactly 1 week since he got it, and he sent me a picture this morning and he didn't notice at all that you can make out the color pigment changing on the top of some of the Primordia. He has been spraying twice daily, sometimes once, depending on how humid the bag looks(And he brought a humidity meter a few days in, so its been 95-99% humidity constantly, at 22C, and fanning two or three times daily. Overnight, the tub covered in tiny white lumps, there was already some there. but no more then 10-15, now we're talking hundreds.

What both of us are struggling to find conclusive detail about is when to stop misting. Some websites suggest as soon as Primordia starts to form, and other suggest not to stop at all. What have you found?
Also, from this point where he is, from other people experience, with the environment the way it is, how long would it take for him to expect his first harvest?
Thanks for you help We both appreciate it.

Yeah. What cron said. There is some misconception about misting here. 99% of the people here do not mist enough. Almost every pic I see here shows a cake or mono that is too dry. I probably use 3-6oz of water per mono, per day. Twenty to thirty pulls of the trigger on the spray bottle.

In the past 48 hours things have really taken off for him. He just sent me this picture below of the box.
Is the white on the caps normal at this stage? We have struggled to find alot of cambodian images when they are around this age. He has kept misting and fanning regularly. He did say that the camera may make the colours look odd. They do seem a tad dark.
Your response is greatly appreciated. Cheers

Looks great. Those spots on the cap are normal. Just shreds of mycelium. Super potent!

Really? Have you ever tripped just on those shreds, or how can you tell?

Are we seriously talking about tripping on the universal veil, or claiming that it correlates to potency? Is this real life?

Okay. Maybe the spots are not super potent. Just sounded good
