Why are mushrooms growing on all my cilantro plants?
I've been raising quite a few cilantro plants from the ground up. The majority of the ones inside are fine, but a lot of them are growing mushrooms. Is this harmful to my plant? Does anyone have any idea why this would happen?
The soil medium had fungal spores that grew mycorrhizae that formed fruiting bodies. It actually means your soil is probably pretty good. High in organic material. Mushrooms don’t hurt anything. They only consume decaying matter. You can pluck them out if you like. Let the top of the soil dry out and they should go away.

They will no harm plants. ☺️

Those types of fungi are saprophytes, feeding on decomposing organic matter, so they pose no threat to your plant ☘️
