Hello, My question has to do with a little mushroom I found growing in my soil under my plant. Is it a good sign or a bad sign?

It won't do to much harm, usually a sign of overwatering. Some spores probably landed in the soil and your conditions have made it thrive.

Mushrooms are an indication that your yard has a lot of organic material in the soil. Mushrooms help break down that organic material, and make your soil more productive.

Clay pebbles at the bottomI'm thinking using this like maybe an half inch in 4 gallon fabric pot - for better airflow for roots & to prevent overwatering. They absorb the excess well and give off slowly.
Been doing this with my normal plants at home and it works well for them. Anyone with experience?Setup. Substrates
