This yellowy fungusy-looking stuff just showed up in a matter of hours. What’s happening? Next plague?

    Looks like some type of slime mold. I get it in my garden sometimes, it’ll go away on its own.

    Looks like dog vomit variety (tho, I am not an expert).

    Good sign for your compost.

    Dog vomit slime mold. Have had this a couple times.
    Seems to be associated with too much moisture/anaerobic conditions. I’m no expert, though.

    Eventually it goes away, but it is gross and can spread quite far.

    A type of mold, it’s helping compost.

    If you want to have some fun, stick a few wet pieces of oatmeal near it and watch how it searches it out lol

    I’m jealous, I love slime molds

    Put it in a tupperware on a piece of wet paper towel and feed it oats. Ot can be your new pet. (Until it gets moldy and dies, as all of mine did…)
