Some of those are aborts. The one that have fuzz all over them are aborts and can be picked. The ones with fuzz on the base near the substrate are just (for now) fuzzy feet.

i tried to spray Hydrigen Peroxide 3% (H2O2) when i noticed a few days ago, but did almost nothing. do you recommend spraying more? should i pick up those aborts right now or wait for them to grow?

Hydrogen peroxide does nothing. Pick the aborts now which are the ones fully covered in fuzz.

Fuzzy feet is caused by lack of FAE. Meaning it needs more passive air exchange. It can also be genetic if I’m not mistaken.

its a sign of insufficient airflow, or just a genetic predisposition, or both. its not really a concern. the aborts, however, are. how are you caring for this grow?

So im very new to this, i bought 2 growkits and let it colonized for 3 days at 26c or so and misting for high humidity and FAE 2 3 times a day. when i started seeing pins coming out i change it for more FAE opening the bag more times a day and less misting and change it to 22-24c putting light for like 8-10 hours.
One growkit is golden teacher and the other is mckennai, the gt bag grow in 2 weeks and already harvest the first flush. the mckennai only start pinning 2,5 weeks later and i started seeing this fluffy stuff i got concerned because the GT bag didn't show any sign of contamination.
