I woke up this morning to find these mushrooms in my spider plant pot. Should I remove them or just let them be?

Umm I'd pull them but you don't need to they just mean that you have good soil

### clefarie kommenterede den 2025-11-15

theyre harmless, if u have pets u can always pull them off but you wont be able to get rid of the mycelium network in the soil

I would remove them before they spread spores to other plants. You can eradicate them with a commercial fungicide. 🪴🍀

They're harmless to plants and can be a fun companion species. You'd only need to remove them if you have pets or curious children that might try to eat them (they're not lethal but can cause stomach upset), or if someone in the house is sensitive to spores in the air (for example someone with asthma.) If you want to get rid of them for aesthetic reasons, just pick the blooms. If you need to get rid of the mycellium for whatever reason, you can use a basic fungicide like neem oil or hydrogen peroxide (but a lot of soil has mycellium in it, so unless you're sterilizing the soil every time you repot, it'll be back)

If it blooms into mushrooms unusually frequently, it can indicate overwatering, but occasional blooms just mean the soil is good quality. Yours looks to be flowerpot parasol or a closely related species

Thanks for the info, super helpful
