Fuzzy white on cap and stem?

I found this on one of my caps today. Last night I set the cakes in a dish of water because they were very dry but had pins on them. The humidity is good. FAE is pretty good but I hadnt fanned in maybe 18 hours because I was busy.
This fruit was under another one that had opened its veil.
No other signs of this anywhere really. No green or blue fuzz. What could this be?

It could be mycelium but I'm not 100% sure. I've seen it before with harvested mushrooms but never ones that are actively growing. Maybe those are spores from the other mushroom that have germinated? 
That being said I'd give it time to see if it changes color. If it does, you might be in for a mold infestation.

That common mold. Spary with hydroxide and wacth it fade away. Its not cobweb just mold. You spray it to be sure in mushrooms form the cubes might bruise but dont die off ir fade back.

Typically we see mycelium form like this when we have too wet of a substrate. This causes the air just above the substrate surface to be closer to 100% RH. When this happens, the mycelium can not tell the difference between the substrate and the air because both are very moist. Hope you're still following. Mycelium in this case will try to colonize the air by sending out shoots of mycelium in search for food... "This area is moist, let's see if we can expand that a way"
Considering you dunked your cakes overnight and left them there to swell up, as well as poor FAE (not fanning & growing below another shroom), I would bet this is what's going on with your little shrooms there.
