Read that mushrooms in soil is a good thing…just checking here. (I plan on pulling them out but noticed peppers have it at the bottom of the stem). Any ideas if this is ok/a good or bad thing?

I don’t know anything specifically about the mushrooms growing next to the pepper plant. Hopefully it isn’t a sign of rot or anything. But yes, mushrooms in the soil in general are a good thing! It’s a sign of healthy soul. I never remove them. They dry up on their own in a few days. I have never had them hurt anything.😊
