    Default Mushroom problem in soil

    Hello everyone.
    I'm just starting out my second grow and prepared the soil in pots ready for transplant. I used the same as my first grow that worked very well, compost, Coco and perlite "all new". I left the pots in my grow tent for about a week, but today when I looked in my tent it had lots of mushroom growing in one pot.
    My question is... Can I still use the soil and how do I prevent them growing in the first place? Have they grown from something I've done or is this common?
    Thanks!!!!

    Welcome to the forums.


    Wait for one of the soil guys to confirm but I'm pretty sure this a good thing.

    Shows the soil is good and full of nutrition with ripe conditions for growth

    NO SELL, NO SMELL, NO TELL!!!

    Welcome to the forum, I don't think I'd be too worried about mushrooms in the soil. Do you think you might be over watering?

    Yee... I’ve grown shrooms before (on purpose and by accident )

    Some spores must have got in the soil at some point. Just pull them out as soon as you see them and you’ll be fine. If the veil on the bottom of the shroom cap breaks tho, it’ll drop more spores and possibly restart the cycle. Absolutely nothing to worry about tho... just pull them and crack on.
