[romdog11]

Ha Ha. Very funny. I've read that liver failure is one of the most uncomfortable ways to go. Don't even look at those shrooms or they will kill you instantly.

I know this thread is old and you probably already have solution, but here it is anyways.

I would for sure try to get rid of them. The mushrooms aren't the problem but the mycelium from which the mushrooms come from is. The older,more colonized, and denser the mycelium gets it will grow all around the roots. When it surrounds the roots it will most likely lock out all nutes and maybe even water. This stuff is truely amazing and spreads incredibly fast. In Oregon one mycelium was responsible for killing an entire forest, although the mycelium was 2,200 years old and the size of 1,655 football fields. This is considered to be the largest organism in the world. I have no ideas on how to get rid of it though. Once mycelium is established well enough to fruit (produce mushrooms) it can survive extreme temperatures and drought. Maybe a fungicide?

So would transplanting into new soil help, or would it just spread throughout the new soil? What about washing the roots off and replanting?

[SMOKEnCHOKE]

You would have to get it entirely off the roots somehow because even one small white spec would just overtake the soil if it was brought in. Mycelium does extremely well in transplants. If you washed of the roots thoroughly you might get rid of it. I don't know if spraying with peroxide would hurt it at all. I use it with positive effects. If you do transplant it try to keep the temperature as low as you can with stressing the plant for a week or week and a half. And when the mushrooms come up try to pick them before their veil tears and they open releasing spores, because spores will stick on you and will get everywhere and maybe into other plants.

If it wasn't you mother plant I wouldn't worry about but since she's gonna be around for awhile something needs to be done. Even if the transplant doesn't get rid of it your roots will be better off in less of it.When you dig around in the soil do you notice white thread like almost mold looking growth?

Nice info, smoke-n-choke!

I use to grow shrooms. Grew a few pounds at a time.

The conditions for them to grow indoors is very different from growing them outside.

I have to ask what soil are you using to grow with?
Shroom (with Psilocybin) usually only grow on certain subtrates.

Are these growing from the soil or from the stalk of the plant?

How high is your humidity? Shrooms like a high humidity. I always set between 75 - 80%. Some say higher but my stain seemed to grow best at that range.

Also these could be a pest to your plants. Shroom soak up tons of stuff from the soil(subtrate). Shrooms are know to suck up anything and everything in the soil. This may lead to a deficiency to your plants.

However shrooms require Myc to grow from which is the white area that the shroom groows out from. Once a shroom has grown and nute value has been depleted the myc will die and root. Myc spreads and will suffocate your roots. It will grow threw out the medium that the plant is in and eventually kill it because it will not allow for the plant to get any water or nutes.

Shrooms also attract any different fungi such as cobweb mold and various other things you don't want your plants to ome in contact with?

Shrooms are tricky indoors and providing the right conditions are sometimes tricky.

All I have to say I don't know how your plant is living with the shrooms. 2 totally different conditions for indoors. Outside possible inside no so much.

oh and another thing. If those shrooms are growing in a area where other plants are in the same condition check all your plants. If you used the same soil and all that. Spores from shrooms are microscopics and they drop millions at a time. Believe me your breathing them now if there still there. Watch for more shrooms in other plants.

One more thing if you have shrooms you also have conditions for other fungi. mainly mold. Very easy to get. Believe me mold is easier to grow then shrooms.

peroxide does not kill myc. I used it to control other bacteria and fungi. When shrooms are in there fruiting stage they are hard to kill without force. I never tried killing them so I couldn't tell you what to use on them.

Just remember it is fungus. Something will kill them.

Low humidity and a temp drop should do the trick. But I am not sure about the plants.

[pudder]

ok one more post.

You lay want to think about cloning the hell outta that plant and then ditching it. find another mother. More like a 3rd generation. You prolly wont get rid of the myc.
