First Bulk Growing Need Advice

My first time trying something other than brf cakes and Im not sure when to put this into fruiting conditions. I’ve seen people go to fruitingo at this stage, but should I wait for more colonization to get better fruiting conditions?

Personally, I don't really change anything until I get my first pins. Then I start increasing FAE.

My stuff goes to fruiting conditions as soon as I spawn.

I’ll wait a little longer so it’ll be more resistant to contamination.

Waiting does NOTHING for contamination. You either spawned clean spawn or you didn't.

Did you mix your substrate and spawn in the open air?
Yes
So why are you suddenly worried about the open air!

I was thinking of the possibility of airborne contams being present at fruiting that were not when I spawned. From what I understand of brf cakes more colonization helps defend against contams, I figured the same would apply to bulk.

Those airborne contams are always present. If your spawn was clean, and just as importantly FULLY colonized, The contams will have no food. This is why we preach clean spawn and allowing your jars to fully colonize. Waiting longer on PF jars is the same as waiting longer on your grain jars to finish.
Once you go to bulk most of us go directly to fruiting conditions. Only exception is with Exotics like Pans and Semps Which I move to a tent once they pin. However the Shoeboxes go to fruiting conditions at spawn time even on those.
