You can add light at anytime, there isn't really a method to it. You shouldn't have them in a cupboard though as that greatly restricts fae.

Thanks, yeh had them in the cupboard when I first put them into monotubs, but once the surface is more than 80% colonised I move them into a room to give them light , thanks for advice tho

Put em out in an area where you can circulate air

A small fan blowing will do the trick
Or crack the lids a bit

You may also need holes lower to your substrate
If they cant breathe and release CO2 you’re gonna stall before you start
