Should I be worried? I was away for 3 days and this thing grew in the soil of my Monstera. Google told me it’s a Shaggy Inc Cap Mushroom, but I’m unsure. How would that get in there? I repotted the Monstera back in March with fresh soil from the hardware store.

    No need to worry, it’s a fairly common mushie. That said, if your potting mix is that wet you may be overwatering or not giving a long enough period in between waterings

      Yeah I saw “mushroom in soil” and my first thought was “does that mean it’s too moist?”.

      But whether that’s the case depends on the plant that’s growing in it, of course.
