Instead of dunking for a second flush, can I just heavily mist it instead?

So I got my sab already to go and I opened my LC that I got a few days ago and it looks like this. Looks fucked no?

So I just had a successful water tub grow in fact I'll be preparing it for it's 2nd flush soon but my dad also wanted to get an AIO  grow bag to see if we could get it to fruit and it's been a long time colonizing all 5lbs but I think it's looking really good

I already mixed it together after partial colonization and now I think it's reaching around 70-80% colonized

So for the question: Do you guys think it's ready to cut the bag and slap a paperclip on it? Start the light schedule etc? Or does it essentially need to be pure white mycelium before I should fruit?

Here's some pics






Also, you can probably tell that when I was mixing the bag, I didn't create a uniform flat substrate surface, and i'm wondering if I should try and fix that by moving The substrate around in the bag or just let it ride?

About how many six quart shoe boxes is it possible to make with 3 lb of Spawn?

I've got a couple 3 lb grain bags I'm interested in spawning out into shoe boxes

So I'm working on my ffu sterile technique, after a botched first attempt at A2G. I understand not to put my hands over open vessels and dont put anything between filter and my work. So one issue I could imagine causing problems was with the steps involving cutting up the plate. I work on a cookie rack, started out opening HG style plate, laid the lid on cookie rack with the top down, did my cutting, and then set the cup back on the lid upside down. Unscrewed grain jar lid almost all the way, flamed scalpel again, cooled it in the flow for maybe 5 seconds, then removed lid, set it top side down on the rack, used my scalpel to flick agar into the jar, then put the lid back on the jar. So my question is whether or not I should be placing the plate face down on the lid, bc it's pretty much impossible to do perfectly without touching the rim of the cup to the rim of the lid, and the rim of the lid was exposed to open air the entire time it was colonizing, so I'm wondering if that's where I picked up nasties. Disclaimer- this isn't something I considered until after the fact, and not something I did while actively wondering if it was a problem. Is this considered procedurally accurate or should I just leave the cup face up in the flow while I finish prepping the jar and scalpel?

I never put down lids on anything. Lift lid off plate, take wedge, put lid on plate. Take lid off jar and drop wedge in. Put lid back on jar. I never put down a lid. I never put down my scalpel. Unscrew jar lids and unwrap plates before I flame my blade so I can do everything with one hand.
