Possible spider web mold?

Hey everyone. I have mu first shoebox going, with more on the way soon. I noticed some odd areas that looked a little like spiderweb mold. But I'm not sure if it's just fuzzy myc.
Any opinions would be appreciated. The box smells lightly of mushrooms. The walls and lid have a little condensation and there are small beads of water on the surface. Here is the box and the corners in question.

Here are some agar dishes that I thought were just fuzzy but perhaps may have spiderweb as well? I included some pics with a digital microscope although they were not as great as I had hoped.

The colonies on the plates don't look like cube myc and the growth pattern (circular) doesn't resemble a cube colony (perhaps if it was a clone or a monoculture) but yeah mold colonies usually grow in perfectly round circles.
How long ago did you spawn? The myc in the tubs looks like Cubensis tho.. Spawn/sub ratio?

Hey Mateah,
I spawned on the 19th. I inoculated the jars (only 2 made it) with agar wedges that were the 2nd or 3rd transfer starting from dishes in February. The other jar went g2g and those jars are colonizing. I forgot to write the date of inoculation on the jars so I dont remember when I did it. But they all took for ever, like maybe a month to colonize. And one by one most of them contaminated. That is likely because it took me quite a few jars to get a good rhythm down and was kind of sloppy putting the wedges in the jars.
The shoebox has one jar that was about 2/3 full, aprox. 110 g of dried coir, and I think it was 550 ml. I'll admit, I did not annotate any of it. But I used Bod's recipe and divided it down to one shoe box. I will probably use a bit less water next time. Didn't cook the coir, just mixed with tap and then mixed it with grain. I kept back a small amount that I spread across the top for perhaps a 1/4 in casing layer.
The agar dishes have been pretty fuzzy since I started. But I did start them from a print/loop and thought they were just really tomentose. Once in a jar it started looking more like the pics I see most people posting.

Myc can often be mistaken for cobweb especially when fluffy. I'd say transfer bits to another dish.

I'll keep an eye out for black dots. I have not seen any yet, but I think may have seen some on the jars I threw away, but threw them away for easier to see reasons such as the green mold that got in there.
I still have more plates going as I'm working on tidying up the dishes. They all have been tomentose but have been flattening out with each transfer. I have one set of dishes in t5 and one on t4, I only transfer from the best looking dishes as I dont have room for stacks of pitri like I see in some pictures.

That actually doesn't seem to be cobweb. I have a few pics in the thread I made about it, but that thread also rips into anybody who hasn't already done the homework on it cause I was a crabby ass when I wrote it. Still applies!

500+ substrates. Dactyllium once.
