No mold but much too wet don't spray that cake for 2 days.  I mean it!  it will explode with myce growth and most likely pin.  how long has it been in there looks like a week to me.

Dunked and rolled the cake as soon as it finished colonizing, in FC for 4 days.

Waiting alone while my other cakes finished colonizing, giving them 1 extra week to consolidate.

This is what the terrarium looks like, i'm venting and spraying several time a day (8 or 10)

If it's not mold, what is it?

I don't see any mold, but it seems like your terrarium may be a tad bit too humid or perhaps over sprayed like ghostinthemist said.

If i don't spray for 4 hours~ humidity drops bellow 90%. Would it still be ok to spray the sides and perilite just not the cake directly?

Forst off 7 or 8 times is way too much.  your going to soak the cakes and they WILL get contaminated and ruin everything.  Take it from me I had the same problem back in the day when i started.  Think of the mushie in its natural habitat.  Does it rain 8 times a day 7 days a week....no.  Do not spray the perlite either you will only over saturate it and make it harder for it to wick out moisture and cause pooling that  can harbor contamients.  When you water a cake it has reached 100% humidity only after it dries does it rely on the humidity around it.  pray the top and the walls and let nature take its course

The humidity you should be concerned about is the microclimate at the surface of your cakes, not one that can be measured by a POS hygrometer.

Mist when the cakes look dry, not before. Mist until they glisten with dew, not look soaked. Then let it be until they look dry again.

With a proper SGFC this is really the only thing you need to concern yourself with.

That

Which for me usually means I'm misting maybe 1-2 times a day tops.
