Weird white fluffy body on cake

hey guys!
I noticed around 2 or 3 days ago a weird white fluffy body growing together with the mushrooms on the cake... also the mushrooms seem to grow slow... as you see them in the pictures below, it has taken them around 1 week to get to that size. Furthermore I have 5 cakes in the grow box from which only 2 have started fruiting. I guess this is just because of different fruiting cycles that are not in sync. What do you think about it? I'm just worried that it could be cobweb mold in the worst case, or could it be just mycelium growing because of too high humidity/not enough FAE? any ideas, suggestions, feedback are welcome! cheers guys!

The first two pics are totally fine. It's just mycelium. They look good actually. If you see some other grows, the mycelium will sometimes crawl 2/3 or more up the stipe. The 2nd picture could potentially be trich, but I think you're fine.

hey guys! A couple of days ago I picked the first mushrooms that were ready! I noticed today a brownish liquid under the cake I just harvested. Apparently it could be mycelium metabolites ("mycelium piss") and according to what I read it is caused by bacterial contamination and/or other stress factors as high temperature e.g. I took the harvested cake, washed, and dunked it. What should I do to avoid any further problems? any ideas? cheers!

It could just be mist water pooling on the foil
