It’s a mushroom.🍄 The spores could have been in the soil or floated in. Mushrooms and other fungi thrive on rich organic moist soil. They won’t hurt your plant. Let the top of the soil dry out more.

Very cool and thank you  
Can i just cut it off 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴

#### Sunny replied on 2024-12-08

Yes, you can remove it.

### Ezzeldin Yaqoub commented on 2024-12-08

It’s a species of ink cap mushroom.

### Wolfen 🐺 commented on 2024-12-09

Just scoop it out, ideally before it let's off spores.

#### Nicole replied on 2024-12-09

I may be too late🥴🥴🥴 seeing as I’m just seeing this message! Will it harm my plant? I thought they didn’t.

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2024-12-09

They aren't harmful, no. I just say that because most people don't like their plant having a fungus friend lol and if they spore it'll just keep coming back
