First monotub... cobweb? UPDATE: Trich? Something else?

First ever monotub so not sure what to expect. Have really thin white / grey fuzz that started on top, want to confirm it is cobweb and then I should spray it with 3% H2O2, correct?
It popped up overnight, 2 days after casing PE. There are 2-3 spots where white mycelium can be seen, but it is poking up from the bottom and smaller than a dime, whereas this patch is on the very top and much larger.
Anything to do besides H2O2? I've heard FAE will help, but with casing not colonized thought it would be too early to throw into fruiting conditions.

Looks like cobweb to me.

Def cob in 1st and 3rd pic. Yup, spray with straight 3% peroxide about 3 times a day for 2-3 days and it should go away. I just had the same prob not too long ago and the tub fruited just fine.

How fast is it growing(?) - cobweb would colonize the entire surface in a coupe of days.

It looks like cobweby mold to me too. It'll grow really fast if it is. The only time I've gotten it on a casing layer like that I just shook the casing layer off and fruited normally w/o a problem.

It grew from nothing to that patch overnight.
First monotub, wasn't going to case but its PE and saw a lot of info saying casing prevents mutant blobs on PE.

Oh crap... so these photos are from 12 hours later, after I sprayed it for the 3rd time today (was told 3 times daily spray).
As you can see, it is WAY more white and looks like mycelium, but I'm guessing its trich or some other contaminant because of how it started... is there anything that can be done to save this tub? should I just spray down and chuck that part of the casing?
Is there any chance its actually mycelium? It doesn't look like H2O2 worked. This is my first monotub but did full stove pasteurization of the CVG.



Last photo is same spot from before, showing obviously not that much growth.

Doesn't look like cobweb nor trichoderma to me - while it's vegging, trich always reminds me of little granules of Perlite sprinkled on the surface of the sub or casing.
I just found some today on the casing layer of one of my Pan cambo trays :\
I took a pic to show you - though my photography skills are truly shitty.

Any ideas if not Trich?
Started very wispy, then after 2 spaced out H2O2 sprays it was much more white and stuck to the CVG. Could the spray have changed the trich appearance?
I was too worried so sprayed it again and while wet cut out a huge chunk of monotub and put into quarantine... will give updates once I see how it ends up.

I have no idea if H202 changes the appearance of trich (very possible) - I've never tried to treat it, I just toss ASAP.
Though looking at it now, it might be trich, especially if you tried treating it (my bad, my first comment was very early in the morning).
Then again, I'm far from a contam expert.
I guess all you can do is see at this point, either way, you'll know very soon.
