Ill give it a swirl when i get home. How will will i know when its done bar taking a hydro will it clear or do i just leave it for a week then chill and decant then add more wort and let it go decant and pitch simples.As for the lacto, a good 5-7 days around 95-100F should be enough to let it ferment out. No stir plate, use an airlock. You most likely will not see much activity (if any), but should start to observe some "dusty" bacteria layer on the bottom of the starter container.
Should the brett follow the same regime or just give it 1L of 1040.

Not sure what size the package is? If it is a WYeast size, a 1 Liter starter is sufficient. If it is a WLabs vial size of brett, then I would start with 1 L, let if ferment out, chill, decant and pitch a 2 Liter starter on top of it.
