Cobweb or Mycelium growth?

Its hard to see in the picture but there are little fuzzy strands that are starting to show up on top of my casing. Are these the beginnings of cobweb mold or are they my mycelium poking thru?

I can't tell shit from your picture, but cobweb is easy to distinguish from cubensis mycelia. Cobweb is wispy, grayish colored and spreads very rapidly. Mycelia is white and much more dense.

This is just like a fuzz on the top of the casing layer. It's thin with what look like white little balls on it. I think it's probably cubie mycelium but if by tomorrow i start getting dense grayish patches i'll know it's cobweb. You can see them they strands are rather fine.

Are the large white chunks perlite? Also, the rest of it looks like rocks. I don't see anything in that picture that looks like mushroom mycelium or cobweb mycelium either one. I do see some very tiny white dots. They looks somewhat like trichoderma before it turns green. Keep a close eye on it. RR

I dont think the smaller white balls I am seeing are the start of cobweb, possobly Pins but looking at the casing I wonder how they could make it to the surface? What did you use for that Casing?
EDIT- I do see some definite strands of somthing shooting from from piece of perlite? to a rock?, That makes me think maybe there is a cobweb. Cubensis mycelium dosent usually seem that cobweb like. spray it with H2O2(Peroxide) and if there is cobweb it will go away
