GBB molting in cork tube

This is her first molt since I got her. The cork tube is completely integrated in her enclosure because of her heavy webbing so I thought removing it beforehand would do more harm than good, as she was also constantly hiding herself in there during premolt. I really thought she was going to molt outside of the tube, at the entrance, where she likes to hang out otherwise.

But just now, I discovered her molting in her cork tube, which really makes me worried. Does she have enough space to successfully molt in there? I know relocating her would be the absolute worst thing I could do, and keeping an eye on her is the only thing I can do for now, but it'd give me some peace of mind if this perhaps isn't an issue to begin with. But if it *is* an issue, what would I need to do if she's having trouble pushing her molt off because of a lack of space?

Sorry if the pictures aren't clear, these are the clearest pictures I could take without disturbing her or lifting the cork tube.
