i think youre good. Should start to see knots pretty soon if not already. just keep humidity up from 90-95 and fan often.

Looks like mold to me, but not cobweb. Try to douch it with 3% hydrogen peroxide full strength. Put the peroxide in your mister and hit it. I doubt it will help though. It almost looks like bacteria, like if you made the substrate with contaminated spawn. RR

Just keep an eye on it. It looks like some small mold there.

It looks like spit, which could be bacteria. I'd put it outside in the shade if it were mine. RR

RR - How long should I leave it outside for? I really can't leave it outside overnight yet, too cold. And should I put it in the sun, if the outside temp is ~ 65 during the day?

Does it still look like the pictures above? Take a picture of the top of the casing layer when it isn't wet. The reason for going outside is two fold. One, it keeps bad spores, etc., from spreading in your grow area. Two, many times a project will revive and fruit by moving outside. It's probably warm enough to bury it with some manure in a shady spot. Let's see a recent pic though. RR

here are the latest pics. as far as burrying it outside, the nighttime lows are ~10 degrees F, daytime highs ~65 F. Will it survive still?
Thanks for all the help so far RR

It won't survive outside with 10F temperatures. Toss it out at the first sign of green, if that shows up. The top pic of the three above doesn't look too bad, so it might work out for you. The other pictures might have been distorted by the peroxide. Expose to light and other fruiting conditions, and if it's going to pin, it will do so within the next week. RR

This flush of the Redboy strain came when the day temperature was mid fifties, and nights were lower forties. They won't survive cold temperatures if the ground is frozen for very long. RR
