Cobweb and fuzzys on 50/50 in monotub?? Help please

Checked the first attempt at a monotub and there are two 3 inch roundish patches of what Id think to be cobweb on the casing layer... One of the patches also has a few roundish green fuzzies. Thats what they would look like, a few green fuzzy things, the size of a a bb, like when a sweater starts to pill...
The tek used was Damions Cior 50/50...
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/11917410
The tub has been colonizing for about 3 weeks now and just a few 2" patches of mycelium has shown through the 50/50 casing layer so far. Pics of the mold wouldnt show up well even on macro, they just look greyish... Can you just spray peroxide on the verm/cior or maybe just put it into fruiting?
What ya think??.. please help.

Youre always around to save the day Koolaid,,, nice! The pics wont show up well like I said, they are garbage.. ANd as far as the layer.. I thought thats what casing is, the little bit of cior/verm that he calls for to be left over to put over the colonized wbs and 50/50 mix...

that layer is just to protect your grainspawn, as grains will contaminate easier than pasteurized coir.
as for the "green" and the 3 weeks and still not fully colonized.
sounds like contam.
either you pasteurized wrong, or your spawn was contam'd
if you aren't concerned about spreading trich spores (if its trich you've got) you can try to fruit it. you might get somethin
better luck next time though

also damions tek is not 50/50 verm/coir
i think its more like 2/8 verm/coir.
(im thinking a brick of coir expands to ~8 quarts of substrate, correct me if im wrong)

o, so the 50/50 must refer to the grain to verm/cior ratio then?
No to the peroxide?

his username is damion5050.
there is a casing layer tek floating around somewhere that uses 50/50 peat/verm
i think you may be getting the two confused.
and i would only use peroxide if you've confirmed cobweb.
and we;d need pics for that

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I also see patches of sporulating trich amongst the cobweb. So the bright white patches coming up there might be trich as well.
Can u take a macro of the green spots?
er nmind i just blew it up, here it is:

thats cobweb for sure. did you wait till 100% colonized to spawn your grains? do you know what the Ph is?

I usually let em explode in trich first just out of denial / wishful thinking.
What did it look like when you applied the casing layer? And how long ago was that?
I don't case cubes, maybe someone who cases can chime in. If the contamn was just in the casing i wonder if it could be sucked up with the shop vac.
