| Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I wasn't sure which area would be best and this is the section i'm most active. With that out of the way I am curious do you guys/galls have mushrooms growing in your garden? This is the first year i've noticed them, I did use a different compost tea and we did get a lot of rain, so what gives? Is this a good thing? Should I should pick them out before they spore or keep them there? |

| Mushrooms are actually a boon as the "root" system helps with the nutrient content in the area they grow. Saying that though they like really damp areas wich may pose a problem to the other plants in the garden. Are you overwatering? Are you getting enough sun? If you pick them they will just grow back. As long as the conditions are good for the plants you want I dont see a problem, others may have better knowledge though. |

| They are living off your bark mulch... not a big deal. In two weeks or so they will be gone. |

| I said elsewhere that I've had noticeable fungi in one particular bed for maybe two months now. I'll include the pic again. Same bed, maybe the same fungus. It seems to always be an artifact of actively rotting wood shreds. This bed is full of flowers and it's a jungle. The fungi are all part of the system. |

| CANNOT get rid of them, are they bad for the plants? Runner22- The point is, as was explained before you posted your question, is you don't need to get rid of them. They pose no threat to you or your plants in any way and are generally considered a good sign of healthy soil. Dave |
