So I'm growing B+ and Golden Teachers, my GT seem to be doing great and are growing nicely, I'll take pics soon of the actual grow but what has me concerned is this extra fuzzy white stuff that has popped up on my B+. This was an "all in one" sterilized grow bag with rye, straw, and casing on top. It did not colonize the whole thing before it started fruiting, and the mushrooms had no room to grow inside the bag. So I set up another tub like I did with my GT, and what had colonized and started fruiting into the tub. That is why there is a lot of extra uncolonized casing.
I am just confused as this fuzzy stuff has just recently started showing up it seems, but it is on the bases up to about halfway on my mushrooms and is on the cake.

“Fuzzy feet” from to much moisture or to little air exchange.

I would definitely say it's from too much moisture. Is this something that ruins my grow? Are the mushrooms still okay? What do you advise I do?
EDIT: Did a bit more research and I am now fanning every day. I believe I have figured it out thanks to the terminology supplied above, so thank you for that!

Fuzzy Feet! Increase your FAE by fanning 2-3 times. Mist as well

Fanning a few times a day won't do much if you have problems, you need fresh air coming in passively 24/7. Some kind of holes if it's in a bag or the lid ajar if its in a tub with a gasket etc. They don't like to be too closed up.

I have 4 holes cut in my smaller box (B+) and stuffed with Cotton Balls as Polyfill was impossible to come by at the time of inoculation and I was tired of waiting. So I have two tubs, one with 4 holes, one with 6(Teachers) filled with cotton. But I have a kit coming that will constantly pump a fresh stream of air in so that problem should be fixed in my future batches. Regardless, I stopped spraying as much and fan them and could tell a difference in growth within a day from it.
I know the cotton can be eaten, so the holes are high up and away from the body.

Yes you're right but fanning more often will allow FAE and prevent tons of CO2 build up..
As Code said, he has Polyfill. All he needs to do is take some out.

Sounds like they're too stuffed, not allowing fresh air to come through; I suggest taking some out and maintain your conditions.
