That's cool. How long are you going to let it lager?

I did a Mocktoberfest ale on Saturday and used Safale US-05 yeast. I'm not sure if the yeast fully took off right away because for the first 4 hours my chamber was at about 59 degrees. I wanted to ferment at 62 degrees to try and mimic a lager as best as possible. I now have the chamber dialed in at 62 to 63 degrees.

I'm not getting any bubbles out of the airlock on its own, but the lid on my bucket is bowed up and if I press the lid a little the airlock will bubble. Should I resuspend the yeast or pitch another dry yeast pack?
