PE issues, possible cobweb

Noob to growing but can follow instructions and thought I had a handle on what I was doing. Have since read this and many other forums and now more confused than when I started.
Long story short, PE spores from a reputable location, MycoFarm kit 650g Rye Injector bag Casing mix (new! contaminant resistant polymer matrix) Alcohol swab Humidity tent and perlite.
Initial stages looked good, moved to daylight stage, no action, read forums here and started airing and misting, got a corner of growth

but was then concerned that what I first took for the mycelium was actually cobweb mold

read lots of posts on here but couldn't find the FAQ, basically read conflicting reports of more humidity, less humidity,
this s seemd the best;
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18642418
settled on removing from humidity tent and putting under fan to dry it out, then came across the h202 method, diluted 3% to one part water to make it 1.5%
no effect from first spray last night, this morning gave green gray hue result on mushroom stem


kinda lost as to next step now. Cut out possible contaminated areas? Salt with paper? then move back to humidity tent and mist again? harvest existing mushrooms now? is there any hope for this at all? thanks in advance.

Looks a bit bacterial / on the dry side, but other than that, looks pretty good 
Myc is trying to mat in a few spots, keep an eye on her

Yeah, stop misting with the peroxide. The only thing that it's doing now is damaging your mycelium.
And edit your original post to remove the vendors name. Spores are sold for microscopy only.

thanks for the tip - vendors name removed. Although in that country it is legal to sell.
stopped the misting and put back in humidity bag and removed from fan.
good idea to harvest the large ones now to stop any further infection or damage?

Oh really? I just assumed it was from a country where spores are only legal to sell for microscopy purposes.
When it comes to your fruits though, I'd leave them until the caps open up more. But that's just personal preference.

well, not in that country anymore cool thanks, they had opened more by lunchtime so i assume even more so tonight.
although i read they are stronger before they open? but i guess if there is any chance of second flush i need to let the spores fall.

There is no cobweb that i can see but it looks like you set yourself back quite a bit due to paranoia. Stop the spraying with h2o2. Putting it under a fan dried it out and matted the myc so you probs wont see anymore fruits from this flush.
Id harvest, dunk and put back in the fc and not fuck with it and hope it perks up a bit. Also looks nothing like pe

Harvest them riiiiiight as that veil is tearing. You don't want those spores to explode in there if you can help it. Please do NOT think that allowing the mushroom to sporulate will cause future flushes. That is determined by many things (environment, genetics, etc.).
