That´s going green mate, sorry.
I´d advice to start your own thread and explain your procedure from the start. You´ll be on track soon

If you follow the tek, put the lid on mate. Due to your environment and wobbliness of the lid you need to figure out if the lid works better flipped over or regular on, but don´t latch it. It´s all about holding up humidity high in relation with providing as much air exchange as possible. You don´t change anything until harvest, it´s fully automated. The tek says "growing conditions" from the start, so set and forget. Just check for moisture content on the surface once or twice a day. Have a look here to compare the pics with yours. I´d suggest to use a top layer of coir next time

He wants to know if he should:
a) set up to growing conditions from the start (allowing fae)
or
b) let colonize the old fashioned style in darkness, wrapped in a trash bag (restricting fae)
As a) is always prior, the answer should be clear. Bad (hope you mean bacterial) spawn is for a shoebox or for the garden

It´s knotting up, so it´ll pin soon.

No problem. Just keep an eye on your surface to have tiny water pearls all over.

What is stall air? Bacteria loves h2o yeah. I'm curious about o2 and co2.
"Co2 during colonization is good for bad spawn if bacterias loves o2."
OR
"Right away fruiting conditions good for bad spawn if bacterias loves co2."
Which one is true?
Stall air = Stagnant air = not enough FAE
Aerobic bacteria require oxygen, but O2 can be toxic to anaerobic bacteria. It just depends on which bacteria is causing the issues.
Moisture is the key universal factor in bacteria mobility.
Hell yeah, same time i was on another thread with a cobweb topic. I think that´s why i added stall air  I´ll switch to "stale" from now on

I´d use at least 4 quarts.

Justagrowing said: But correct me if I'm wrong, more grain in the final substrate mixture should lead to a higher quantity or a higher quality in fruits since there is more nutrients there for the mycelium to eat up. From my understanding the coir doesn't do much besides act as a moisture reservoir for the mushroom to use up as they need it.
Not quite correct, that depends on the total volume. You don´t want a higher ratio (more spawn) than 1:2 (spawn:substrate), cause it will lead to a poor yield. Right moisture content is as important as axenic spawn. Anything from 1:2-1:4 and even higher will do the trick, with providing the maximum moisture holding capacity against gravity.
The nutes from the grains are enough, they even won´t be used up completely

For a first timer that´s an amazing result, congrats 
I usually harvest everything off, to set it up for another flush. If you want to take prints, let the caps flatten out like in your pic. Could have harvested earlier, but that´s totally up to you. I wouldn´t make brains about potency, it always varies from fruit to fruit, unless you have a very stable culture. Getting them dry fast is more important when talking potency.
You mean the spots on the caps? The dark are just moisture drips. Can turn into bacterial contam. The present helpful bacteria will turn into an enemy, if they have standing water on their caps over time. Yours are fine. The white is just mycelium and often remnants of universal veil, protection tissue from early development stage.
Yours look fine. Direct lightning won´t make them grow bigger. Healthy spawn, water and good conditions, eeverything else is genetic lottery. Seems you made all of them mostly. Sidepins aren´t bad

 For sure it´s that. It´s just a method to harvest, in addition to that you also have some kind of a bottom dunk. A heavy misting after releasing water, and ready for next round.

Not superior, they're both working. It's a good way to start the journey and learn about your environment. For some extreme climate zones it may be the better choice.
