Cobweb Mold or No?

Okay so this is my second time growing and I used brf cakes with simple brf, verm., water. I saw this growing little when i sprayed them but ignored it since i had this happen alittle before. As the days went by (uncased and put in terrarium 4 days ago.) it got worse by growing alittle bigger but spread out also. I just wanted to know if this looked like cobweb mold or they're just normal? Also, the strains look like mycelium but the formation does not (as you can see.)
Please! -- Thank you!

It looks dry and in bad conditions. What chamber are you using? Are you misting directly?

I have them put into their separate containers at first to catch any mold before pinning to reduce any chance of it ruining the rest, than have them put into a large single heavy plastic tub. (not the usual walmart storage ones.) but for right now its in small ones to keep humidity up, induced pinning. For misting, i mist the sides, the plastic that covers the top than a very light mist on the cakes. It seems to only happen to the cakes i do it to. I have a few others that i don't mist directly on and they seem perfectly fine.

They're reacting to bacteria. See how it's thick and rubbery? That's bacteria. It means they were probably both over misted and now the lack of fae, bacterias worst enemy, is making the bacteria thrive. I'd recommend just putting them back in the chamber with good fae and cut the misting by half until the shrooms appear. They're fuckin thirsty when shrooms appear.
As for your chamber showing the pics of the shrooms in it... The shrooms are starving of fae, that's why theyre skinny. The caps are small because they need more air. The substrate is bruised because it's dry. Misting is like the biggest thing during fruiting, and probably the hardest part to work on technique in this hobby. Can't have too much or too little. Like a Goldilocks zone as seen in that link.
You should still be able to push fruits out but keep an eye on it for any granular/sandy/fuzzy looking molds. They're like so obvious compared to thick rubbery and cottony myc.
