cobweb in my wbs jars?

Its my first grow. Using spore syringes (haw. and dixieland)WBS in quart jars. WBS was washed, soaked for 24 hours, rinsed well, simmered for 20 minutes, drained for 15 minutes and P.C. @15psi for 1 hour.
So i inoculated my jars sunday night. Its now thursday and i checked my jars today. I have little white balls of myc. scattered throughout my quart jars. Its not just on the top where ive read cobweb often forms. And its not long strands either. Small white balls that are a bit "hairy" all around their edges. and theres quite a bit of em. its only been 4 days? I'll post some pics in the morning if need be.
i thought i was pretty sterile. Sprayed oust all around kitchen, table was cleaned just before with lysol spray. I wore latex gloves that i wiped with iso. alcohol. Flamed needle and wiped clean with a iso. soaked paper towel. After pulling out needle from each jar i immediately wrapped it back in the soaked paper towel... I may be a bit paranoid but it just seems that the stuff in the jars is growing a bit fast for mushroom mycelium.
EDIT* MOD. If someone could please move this to the contamination forum i would be greatful. I thought thats where i was posting.

I've got the same situation with the same procedure (essentially).
My first try with Orissa India. It said a fast colonizer, but for 4 days I'm impressed as well. I am praying mine isn't cobweb as well (I just finished looking it up in the Bible). There's only one fluffy ball at the top, and it hasn't spread further in the air in 12 hours or so.
It's too hard to take a pic of mine, it's too close to the ring, but I'll see how the myc around the wbs develops over the next day or two. I'll keep you posted and put up pics once the picture is clearer
