Hey guys, thanks for the answers.
I spawned 1:1 spawn/coco/verm to 2 6qt shoeboxes and one 15L tub 3 days ago and there's a lot of condensation with some water pooling. I lined one of the shoeboxes and there's only condensation on the lid but the others have it everywhere. Temps are around 74f to 77f.
15L tub

Shoebox

What can I do?

Did you mist it with water? If not mist it with water and put it into fruiting conditions.

Didn't mist, just left them in my closet for the past 3 days. Any harm done putting in fruiting conditions before 100%?

No harm, it's ok to go right into fruiting conditions as soon as mixed up.

So, I put one shoebox and the 15L in fruiting and got my first good look at the substrate surface. The yellow beads are back on the surface of the shoebox and a few on the 15L. (I cased 15L at spawn)
From what I've read I can hopefully get some fruits but it's most likely bacterial and won't produce as many. I guess time will tell.
How's the surface looking anyway? Any bad signs of contam other then the yellow beads?

I've seen way worse yellow metabolites. Your bacterial contamination doesn't seem to be bad thus far and it just might fruit great. I've had bacterial tubs put out awesome flushes. The surface looks good you don't want yours too overly wet cause of the possible bacteria. If you can maintain it how it looks there with a small amount of misting and fanning a couple times a day you should be good.

I'm starting to worry about cobweb. Does this look like mycelium? It's not really white and is kinda wispy/cobweby?

Don't wanna be fanning mould everywhere.

It's not cobweb. That shit looks like loose polyfil in your tub.

Go look at pictures of cobweb mold using the search it should help ease your worries. Some mycelium is just wispy it's called tomentose. But it's still looking ok at this point I think.

Some update photos:
Shoebox 1

Shoebox 2

Tub

Small white dots in every tub/shoebox, sides and bottom too. Are these knots?

Lookin good? Bad?

Those look pretty good and those look like the beginning of knots

Looks like knots to me.
Shoebox 2 looks sadder than the rest. I don't see knots there. I see a lot of spots of yellow metabolites. This could just be the lighting conditions of the photo though.
I've also seen beads of what looked like very dark metabolites in my tubs, that turned out to just be a bead of clean water acting as a lens on some brown coir. I've taken to shining a little LED at odd coloured beads from different angles to see if it's the juice that's that colour or just what it's resting on.

Yo, Got some pins and fruits from one of the shoeboxes and a bag I spawned to but they're small and don't look healthy. The veils are breaking when they're around 3cm and the stems are dark with streaks. Some of them were pressed up against the bag before I cut it open which deformed some caps.
I put bubble wrap in the shoebox which is why some of these pins are bent.

More fae? Do they look ok to eat?

Those are usually signs of being too wet. Give it more FAE . Try it next time without the bubble wrap. They’re fine to eat

Hopefully you're into agar and are making a clone or at least some prints to keep things going again

I have everything ready for agar, maybe ill try some cloning on a new tub i have going. Definitely making some prints tho.
Also dried the shroomies, 15g dry so far, in a dehydrator for 12+ hours. They snap in half but they're kinda fluffy/soft inside and don't seem like they'll get any drier. any ideas?
