First ever grow, is my shoebox okay?

First ever grow. These are Golden Teacher that was from a spore print to agar. From the first agar I made a couple transfers and dropped the rest into some oats (so is this considered an MS grow?). Then from the oats I spawned to bulk on Sept 7th, using coir and verm. These pictures are from last night.
Let me know if these are looking good. I was to scared to open the lid, didnt want any contam so these shots are from the outside of the box.





Is there anything I should do or just leave them alone? I appreciate the help!!!

Looks good for day 4. Leave it be. Patience is the name of the game.

Yes that us considered an ms grow. Once you spawn the only way a contam will show is if it was in the spawn.
Those are looking good. A little dry, but good. Let them do their thing

Please leave it here. It helps keep the search function tidy

So don’t touch the lid. I read casing is not necessary unless it’s PE. Appreciate you guys!!

Alright folks of shroomery!!! Here is an update!!! I haven’t done nothing to the box except maybe peak at it through the side every 30 minutes (my wife is getting jealous...). I just opened the lid about an hour ago to take these photos.

What say you wise shroomery scholars??? Anything to change? When should I add lighting, or should I have started it right away since (we) don’t differentiate from colonizing / fruiting?? I just spawned another shoebox The other day of PE, this time I lined it and still adding a thin casing to cover top layer of oats to provide a better environment. If I start light now for the shoebox of golden teacher would it trigger/bother the fresh PE shoebox or doesn’t matter. Going to add a casing layer to the PE once colonized of jiffy 50/50.

Looks really good. It should have light the whole process so definitely get that going. It should start knotting up anytime now.

For those who would like to see the update. Here is some photos from last night 9/17/20.
     
Also I introduced the lighting. I have a bright 6500k daylight in my closet running on a 12/12 schedule. Only problem that I'm seeing is the temp in the closet sits around 79-80 degrees. Does anyone have a link to light that works for pinning/fruiting and that doesn't run hot?

Find an led bulb. Those stay pretty cool.
80% isn't a deal breaker. Fruits may just be fluffier and faster

Yeah looks good.
They really don’t need a whole lot of light, I would try dropping the temp a little if it’s possible but it’s fine. I didn’t see any real problems until my stuff was around 85 constantly even at night.

Yay! Mush love for the feedback!! Here are photos I just took right now. Can anyone tell me what those little white dots or balls. Is that knotting (sorry noob question)? Anything I should do or just leave me alone?

Cheers!

Multiple pins and plenty of knots. You’re good man. It’ll progress nicely.

Are the cluster of fibers that are reaching clumped together the knots, and are the little dots that showed up the starting part of pins? Sorry for the basic questions. I want to be able to identify these conditions or stages in the future.

I know the feeling! My boyfriend is finally starting to get used to the diversion of my attention. . .
And, the little dots are knots, soon to start turning into pins. I believe the clusters of fibers are just dense patches mycelium, but you'll probably get pins in those areas too.

Here goes a quick update!! How am is looking?
  
I know to harvest right before the veil tears away from the cap, but how long do you think we guys got until that happens? just looking for a rough estimate because I don't want the spores to drop.
