If anyone could help me understand whats going on here i would greatly appreciate it!

I had colonized a grain bag about 90% and then broke n mixed it into substrate, then i layered vermiculite lightly on top & have misted top of tub every few days. Once i did all that and let the cake re-colonize i opened up 4/6 micropore holes & introduced ambient lighting at 12/12.

When the cake re-colonized, it was a thick fluffy but transparent overlay over the whole cake. Then as the days went on after introducing fruiting conditions. The cloudy overlay pulled back & organized lots of hard white knots. Day 18 i see a super small malformed side pin. Days go on and knots harden, more show up & now i am starting to see less knots show.

I do see about 2-3 bruises on knots as well & have stayed about the same over past few days. Ever so light glistening sheen among the cakes surface. How should i go about this?

I hear Nats can take 2 months to fruit & then 3 weeks. I’m unsure which is correct, Any tips?

Nats by Yoshi. Heres a 5 day difference. Should i be seeing fruits anytime soon?

Bag was fully inoculated and hard white about 2+ weeks ago before i mixed the grains into the substrate & light layer of vermiculite on top

Day 13 after flipping to 12/12 20-30 PPFD (indirect), openings 4/6 holes (pore tape) & light airflow.

The first week all of the cloudy growth died down a bit and shifted to more string like & the “clouds” became denser. Still white & good earthy/mushroom smell in the tub. Day 13 of fruiting, should i even be seeing any fruits?
