FC Help - Normal White Fuzz, Cobweb, or Trich?

Hey guys,
Im looking to get some advice on my first grow, this is picture is from about the 6th day of being in the FC. I am noticing a lot of white fuzz all around the cakes, just wanted to see if everything looks good here or if I should be worried about cobweb.
I have a scheduled timer for electric air pump to go off 2 hours a day, I also open frequently to air out. I appreciate any advice given! Thanks.

Well one cobweb is more wispy, usually grey. That, if Im correctly iding the contam, looks to be trich. It'll probably be green by tomorrow

Is there anyway to help prevent this? Or is it pretty much gone?

Pretty much gone, and as for preventing it, work on sterile technique (though shit does just happen sometimes) and when your cakes are in fruiting make sure they arent sitting in stagnant air, give them plenty of fae. Trich loves stagnant air

I'd wait til someone else brings another opinion in though, dont go tossing your cakes just yet. edit:I just noticed the fruiting chamber. build a proper shotgun fruiting chamber, come on man. And dont try and rationalize the tube being piped in by telling me it provides fae and humidity, bc that wont cut it. A sgfc is what you need my friend

Thanks for the advice grownright, I will make sure more air gets in there and will make some more holes in the FC.
EDIT - Also, would it be best to leave the air pump on at all times, or is that too much air?

Thats too much, just take out the pump and build a proper sgfc, its the only way youll get optimal results. trust me. 1/4" holes in a grid pattern spaced 2" evenly apart on all 6 sides and 5-6" of perlite at the bottom

What he said.
Doesn't look like trich to me.
OP Did you give it a full week to consolidate after full colonization?

Yes, I gave it about 1-2 weeks, the myc growth was definitely slower than expected though. Also, would you suggest that I should go ahead, remove cakes for a bit and build SGFC and put them back in ?

Yep, realized after seeing the fc that it was lack of fae, thats aerial mycelium

Okay, thanks again for the advice guys, I will get a SGFC built out for these and get them swapped ASAP. Is there anything else noticeable about these cakes that I should be worried about?
