looking good. You should punch some holes in that bag. They will be ready to harvest soon.
Next time try doin it yourself, much cheaper and more fun

So the white stuff is okay ? Since I have been giving them more oxygen by opening bag a few times a day starting last night they seem to be getting thicker too there are 4 holes in each side of the bag is this not enough ??

The fuzzy feet are from the lack of fresh air. Punch holes all in that bag. You wouldn't enjoy it if your only air for a day was from someone just opening the bag for a few mins, they need constant fresh air.

You should harvest when the veils tear. The mushrooms are gonna start flattening out, so just pick them when they are halfway to completely flattened.

If they are in a room with a regular air flow don't stress opening a window.
Check out this link https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20195542#20195542
This is the sort of air flow you want in your bag.
The mushroom caps are going to flatten until they drop spores, you want to pick them before they drop spores. You will see a white veil under the cap, once that tears pick those bad boys.
Also this link is a gold mine of info for your next diy grow  https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19140341#19140341

Amount of spraying is not a set number. Check out the second link I linked.
