My 1st Mini Tubs (cobweb in tub?)

Hey everyone!! Hope everyone's enjoying their extended weekend 
I have a sort of log going in the cultivation forum. Here's the link if you'd like to take a look.
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/22135551
Anyway...i had a question regarding one of my tubs. For me, it's hard to decipher clean myc growth from cobweb mold growth. I posted this same question in my original thread in cultivation and haven't got any responses. So i figured I'd try here. I hate to make another thread in a different forum...but i need help identifying what's going on. Any and all help is appreciated.
So here's the tub up close.

And then another shot from further away.

In my original thread i stated that i saw a post made by RR stating the brown bottles of h2o2 sold in the states is already pre mixed to 3% and ti just use it straight from the bottle without diluting it. I just need to make sure it's needed. Thanks for your time!!

Cobweb will be greyish and tall hairy looking thing. It will grow so much faster than your myc and will cover it. IMO its pretty easy to tell the difference event the first time I saw it. Mycelium will be pure white anything else is not mycelium. Your pics are hard to tell but I don't see any cobweb but the first pic in the top idk if itd the camera or something else. Got anymore pics? As for the brown bottles I still dilute 50/50.
-------------------- Alright then, picture this if you will: 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" post, just outside of Area 51. Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thing with just a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit!

Thanks for the response Pablo.
Here's a couple more pics i took. My phone camera isn't the best.


I just thought it looked funny because the way it looked like a spider web had just been dropped across my sub. It didnt look like it was growing "up and out" but rather "on top and spreading".
Hope the other pics help. Thanks again!

Not the most focused picture, but I don't see any cobweb.

Cube doesn't always grow "upwards". It can visually manifest many different ways.

Awesome! Thank you!
I just read a thread here talking about white dots on the myc. (Not knots)
I noticed in these pics that i actually have some... Maybe its not the same white dots they were talking about but they said its bacterial.
I noticed them when i was inspecting it while taking the previous pictures. Here is another one i took that shows more of the white dots.

Maybe at this point im just being paranoid over nothing...

I can't quite tell what that is, but just relax for now. I see nothing to stress over.
How does the grow smell?

Okay cool, thank you. Ill keep this thread updated if anything comes out abnormal.
The smell doesn't have any funkiness to it. I mostly smell the coir and a faint mushie smell...

Those pics looks better. Like was already said relax for now only time will tell for sure. I've seen knots or dots like that when there was bacterial infection of some sort still get a flush usually not the best but some is better than none or when trich was about to form and even when there was nothing wrong and the tub went four flushes so the knot things are hard to say. With all that said I think your fine and its just noobie paranoia.

So i took a gander through the tub again this afternoon to check on those white dots. There's alot more of them now...and they're starting to cluster. The only way i can really describe them is "cottage cheese clusters" hahaha. Anyhow, i've never seen these before on any of my grows...i figured now it might be a little more identifiable if it is something nasty...


Edit: So i looked at a thread where this person had the same exact white dots. They turned out to be primordial and started pinning. Im now considering throwing this tub into fruiting conditions. I know its not 100% colonized yet...opinions?

Looks like knotting to me. I'd wait for full colonization before fruiting. Generally early knotting a sign of contamination, or an overly wet sub. How does it smell?

A tub starts to pin when the mycelium has run out of available food, which ideally occurs at full colonization of the substrate. The rest of the sub could be "unavailable" to colonization for a few different reasons:
1) contamination has claimed the rest of the sub, rendering it unavailable 2) the sub is too wet to be colonized 3) the sub is too dry to be colonized

Thanks for the info, guys. I really appreciate it.
Unfortunately, i had already put it into fruiting conditions. When i popped the lid off to take another look, i saw caps coming in on some of the knots.
Here's what it looked like this morning.


I guess it's a decent pin set givin the circumstances. Ill dunk the sub with a little h2o2 after this flush juat to make sure. I know h2o2 is only effective against cobweb but the tub smells fine...it may be too wet though...that's probably what's going on.

I would just leave well enough alone. Hydrogen peroxide isn't exactly harmless to the mushroom mycelium.
