My boyfriend got me this moss terrarium over a year ago now and now it has sprouted some mushrooms, there's also white bits in the soil, I'm assuming these are spores?

I've read they're beneficial but slightly worrying they might take over! I have no way of removing them either as it's like a very large jar. Will they take over or am I panicking over nothing?

  1. Mushrooms are a good sign that your terrarium is thriving and doing well

    Mushrooms are a great sign of healthy soil, the mycelium will continue to give nutrition to the moss and the mushrooms themselves wont cause any harm and probably wont last that long either

    Watch those spots around the outside, too. One of my terrariums once had a slime mold that looked like that, and it moved around. It was the coolest thing!! I was very sad when it faded away.

    nope unless they flush the entire terrarium and rots and by that point nature did her thing.

    The white dots are flower pot fungus and will appear in pretty much every healthy jar of dirt.
