Cob web or just fuzzy mycelium?

Can anyone help me figure out if these look alright? I been colonizing 4 tubs for about 10 days. They’re really white and some sort of fuzzy growth. Is it cob web mold or just fuzzy mycelium growing? Are they ready to fruit?

It's mycellium. Cobweb looks very different. Here's a good post explaining it. The middle pic needs to colonize more but the other two look ready to fruit. Any particular reason you used straw in the substrate? Nothing wrong with that but it contams fairly quickly. If you're growing cubes I recommend straight coir/verm in the future.

No reason in particular other than I bought some bags of substrate online and that’s what it is. I’m doing a couple tubs of the straw substrate and a couple tubs of Boomrbag substrate. Just learning and testing out different things to see what works and what doesn’t.
Thanks for the information. I appreciate it.

In the early days people often saw mold, as tubs were said to colonize wrapped in a bag for ~10 days. For parasites like dactylium species you want absolutely stale air to thrive.
Set up to growing conditions as nowadays, you don´t force it into fruiting mode. Providing the right amount of passive air exchange from the start, your mycelium decides when it´s time for fruiting.
I´d say your tubs fight against bacteria. The thickened up shapes of myc makes me think of it.
So for sure, that´s no cobweb. I never had in tubs (visually ), and you really have to fuck up to get it
