cobweb!!!! Please help

Ok i know there are alot of post about this mean stuff. and i have read alot of them but as fast as this stuff grows. I really want to try to get at it as soon as possible. So for the basics. Strain GT, on rye berries. No signs of contam when bags were done. The to a mix of cow poo and worm castings with distilled water baked at 190 for 90 mins. They have been in the dark at 78 to 82 deg.F for about three days now and last night i checked them and had what i belive to be the dreaded cobweb. so i looked on here and saw a post that you can spray with undiluted 3% H2o2. so i dug out all that i saw and sprayed all three casings with that. 12 hrs later its back and bad on the one casing. so i took these pics and dug it out again and sprayed a little heavier then last night. Is there anything else i can do it that doesnt work?????

Spray with 3% peroxide and continue to mist with this until you see it start to go away. Light mist don't soak it, hope for the best; good luck and good vibes brother .

are you sure that is actually cobweb.
cobweb is an agressive mold. it will spread rapidly. ive not seen it on bulk substrate but i know it will take over an entire pf cake in as little as 24 hours.
Baking bulk substrate is not a method for pasturising bulk substrate.
You need to pasturise bulk subs, which means maintain 140-170f in the middle for 1 hour. This will kill any molds that it may contain while keeping benificial bacteria (which can help stop contams getting a hold)
If you end up sterilising you bulk, you just leave it wide upon to other stuff.
If you dont manage to pasturise it, even more likley to contam.
The pictuires dont really show much, whats growing looks white.
Cobweb is not white, Thin whispy mushroom mycelium can look like cobweb.
If it was cobweb, it would have fizzled and disapeared from being sprayed with 3% h202.
Cobweb should be treated by spraying with h202 and spraying the effected areas again (i forget how long after) even if its disapeared.

I wouldn't dig into your sub at all, I would probably just mist and hope for the best. It looks like they need a lot more time to colonize so I would personally just mist and then put back in a c02 enriched place to continue to colonize.
Your not seeing green spots are you? It doesn't look like it from the pics. Like Veda says pasturazation is not baking at all.

No not any green at all. And with the baking. I set the oven at 190 and put it in covered for about 90 mins. So by the time the center gets up to temp its prolly at that for maybe an hr. So maybe this time ill bring the temp down a little. I always use the oven to do my poos before but i cant rem what temp and times i used.

No GT myc. shouldn't look to much different from any other cube strain. I'm not exactly qualified to say what contam you have going there, just that if it is cobweb you should be spraying with 3% peroxide. I'd wait for some more opinions for sure.

Just let it go as if there is no contam there, maybe your just looking to much into it. I would just continue to let it finish colonizing and then fruit it like normal.
Have you gotten any replies in the thread you posted in the contam section of the forum?

Peroxide does harm mycelium. If you spray pins with 3% peroxide and allow them to remain saturated, they will abort. If you're spraying for cobweb, be sure to avoid pins, and if you do hit the pins, fan dry them right away.
A treatment with 3% peroxide on a cobweb infestation should be repeated twice after the initial application at 12 hour intervals to prevent the cobweb from coming back.
Increase fresh air exchange. Cobweb rarely forms when there is sufficient fresh air. RR
boom.

Great find YouKnow but that doesn't really answer OP's question on if he has cobweb or not.

That is definitely cobweb.

This is also def. cobweb.
I'd start over and burry that tray outside.
