i have a white widow crossed with some type of haze from my buddy and i got three weeks left...resin ducts burst about 3 days ago but also yesterday i started noticing seeds :(((((( im guessing from moving my plant which turned it into a hemie. still fucin great genetics im ready for the harvest good luck i also have the mushroom problem at the moment but i read they increase co2 in the soil which can help your plant considerably.

This info is terrible.... Mushrooms mean you have good soil and if you have them in there then dont use chem nutes... Use organics. The chem ferts kill everything thats living in your soil
 
Nova is right. A few ways that mushroom could have got in your grow room, could have been you bringing in spores on your clothing from outside or if you're using organic soil like peat moss, compost, organic potting soil, etc.. way to help prevent this is 2 mix your soil in 5 gallon buckets Add boiling water to it and put the lid on it and let cool overnight strain it out really good and use it. And another way is to not let your temperatures drop below 75 or humidity get past 60% and always keep your top soil dry before you water mushrooms can't thrive in that type of environments.

Both yours and novas info is lame and your replying to a zombie thread that died years ago. When you read a thread note the date and year before posting...

There is no way possible that they are magical shrooms... Too bad, right?
Same thing happened to me and I grow cubensis in the next room sometimes...thought the same thing too lol but found out later the source was a compost I bought from my local grow shop. Those are likely from spores in your mix & nothing to worry about but if you are growing mushrooms that signals a few very telling things:
A) that your organic mix is active and fungal dominated which is very good
B) that you might have high humidity conditions and/or could be overwatering
C) that you will need to be careful what you give them especially during mid to late flowering as fungus is very adept at absorbing whatever is available in the soil

The third one is the most important. Fungus is super sensitive to high number synthetic nutrients so don't give your plants anything like bloom boosters if it has npk values higher than 5. Fungal dominated soils help the plants root systems exchange whatever they need from what can be absorbed from the dirt and consume the excess. This is why say a 5-15-30 bloom booster will hurt the fungal life by sending it into a tizzy and sort of starve the plant off until the roots can recover and absorb nutrients on their own again. If you give your plant guanos that are say 12-11-6 or other composted organics like in a AACT just be sure to dilute it down a bit if in flowering.
If your soil is peat based that is perfect conditions for fungal dominace which is fine but you want a balance of both fungus and bacteria. Adding some coco and perlite when you recycle your mix will help give places for good bacteria to flourish. Cut back on watering so much or add a dehumidifier to your grow area. Even cheapo potting soil can be made into a good mix over time if you recycle it a few times & add compost and soil amendments; it gets better with time.

Old thread but here ya go. I have yet to know the kind of shroomy.
It will lie somewhere within the 'Gilled Mushroom' or 'Agaricales' family, after that you would have to identify how the gills join the stem and line the cap for a more refined answer. Its quite a large mushroom family, accurate identification may be impossible but if you know the country your grow medium was made in and where the ingredients came from plus your local Agaricales varieties i think you could narrow it down quite well. Im pretty sure there are few who would just be able to come out and nail down the exact mushrooms youve got growing there :-)
