usually neither good or bad... mushrooms feed off of decaying organic material. Plant roots do not feed off decaying organic material (directly, at least. lots has to happen before it is broken down to various things over time by other lifeforms). It won't interfere with fertilizng your plant 99% of the time. it's not "mycorhizzea" howver it is spelled, lol.. bc mycorhizza needs roots to survive. more liekly this soil or substrate was stored outside at soem point and it picked up some extra spores.

Mushrooms in your soil is a good sign, it means you're micro biology is thriving and in good health, don't eat the mushrooms but let the be they're helping breakdown the nutirents in your soil and helping uptake of food

Ph looks good to me, just take these out and scratch the bovest layer of your soil a little loose. Maybe they wont show up after that anymore. Dont eat them.

@AmsterdamGrower, Thanks for the quick reply and for the info. I definitely over watered at the beginning of these plants lives. Maybe that's it. I'll have to do a slurry test and find out about my soil's pH. My runoff is coming out 6.2 in at 6.5. Anything to do to fix this? I've already been watering less and letting them go dry and light.

Cant tell, there too much of them for me to know all differences all i know Is that they wont grow everywere and its not ideal to have then grow into your cannabis pot. Most likely they do not harm you plant but the reason why they grow there can be multiple reasons Your medium little to wet for too long, possible better dry out more between waterings or dose a little less. Watering from the bottom will also keep the top soil layer dry out more. Your medium ph is way off. Could be a 5. Your soil is too rich of fungal.
