SpaceCadet3000 Mixed soil, covered and left to stand for 24 hours. Left a well in the middle of each pot. Day -1: Created seedling mix - slightly higher starting pH than potting mix and no insect frass. Soaked the seedling mix in mycorrhizae solution and used it to fill the wells in each pot and watered with EM-1 solution and left to stand for a further 24 hours. Day 0: Lots of warmth coming from the pots when uncovering. Poked a 1cm hole with my finger and planted the seeds. I then sprayed the top of the soil lightly with plain, filtered water which had been left to stand for 24 hours and placed a clear plastic cup on top of each planting site. The light is running at 50% power and 24" distance. Day 4: Increased light to 55% power. Target is 75% power at 18 inches by node 3 - 5, so I'll bump it up a little every time I see noticeable growth and see how it goes. Would have started adjusting later, but one is a little leggy. It stood strong when I blew at it, so I don't think it's an issue, but I'd rather slow them down, if I did increase power too early, than stretch them. Day 5: True leaves are all visible, so I've cut holes in the cups. They're all open and growing in the right direction now, so I've lowered the light to 23" distance and power to 60%. Day 6: Increased size of holes in the cups. I don't think these cups make very good propagators, so I'll look for a better option next grow. Could also be that I'm still waiting on a heater. Temps are a couple of degrees lower than I'd like. Day 7: Cut the base off the cups entirely. I've been gradually increasing power/reducing distance so now I'm at the target of 18" distance and ~75% power.

Does anyone know what type of mushroom this is growing in my soil? Probably too early to tell. Also, should I get rid of it?

Looks like a tiny saprophytic mushroom, which is common in moist, organic-rich soil. It’s too early to ID the exact type, but it’s not harmful to your plant. That said, it’s still a good idea to remove it. Mushrooms like this can be a sign that your soil is staying too wet or your humidity is running high. Gently pull it out, avoid disturbing the soil too much, and let the top layer dry a bit more between waterings. Improving airflow can also help keep them from coming back.

I mean, you can pluck it out, but that's just the fruiting body of the fungus.... Just don't keep the soil too moist and they should vanish.

You really need pictures of all sides of a mushroom (including underneath) to ID it. If you are more curious you can download an app like Mushroom Identificator (not as good as some, but still free) to get an idea of what it might be. To get further detail you would rip the stem off, place the cap on a white sheet of paper and cover it with a glass and leave it undisturbed for 24 hours. Based on the color of the spores left on the paper you can refine the list of mushrooms down to the most likely candidate(s). That being said, most mushrooms are inedible, and there are many that are poisonous to eat. It doesn't look like anything I forage for, lol, but I focus on choice mushrooms. That being said, they won't harm your plant and might help them.

SpaceCadet3000 Day 8: Top dressed about 1/4 TSP of Great White Mycorrhizae around the base of each plant before watering. They still look like they are stretching a bit, but now the cups are removed and I've pointed fans at them, so hopefully they'll get a bit sturdier to compensate.
