I once bought a lot of cheap bark to define a woodland walk. The bark was very wet (but sold by volume so no cost penalty) it was covered with white threads that I thouhght at the time was mycelium. When the bark dried out the white threads disappeared.
Footnote, being cheap and already half rotted, it didn't last long.

Thats exactly how the original bark I bought was. I think it disappeared in the summer, and even though the bark has been replaced. It must have spread to soil and remained dormant and has now spread to the sleepers and new pine bark. At least I know for next time
