Bruising or contam?
    #26170837 -

Day 9 PF tek. I noticed a few days ago some fuzzy white growth on my cakes. I posted in another forum and the consensus was that I just needed to increase FAE. Someone said they thought it looked like trich but nobody else seemed to agree with that. Now the tops of two of my cakes are looking bluish-grayish. I don't know what I'm looking at. Do I need to isolate these cakes? I'm worried it's too late. One of the cakes with the discoloration is pinning, but the one pictured is not.

Photos: same cake on day 4 and day 9.

"Cobweb mold is almost grey as compared to white. The difference in color is sometimes hard to tell for somebody that hasn't seen them side by side before. Cobweb has several other indicators... the one that sticks out is the speed of growth. A small patch the size of a dime will spread to cover an entire jar/casing in just a day or two. Cobweb is also very very fine strands, while mycelium tends to be thicker ropes.
Cobweb mold is favored by high humidity. Control strategies include lowering humidity and /or increasing air circulation. "
