Mushroom growing in soil bad ?

Found very very small mushroom growing out of new fresh soil today, just wondering if that is a bad thing that a mushroom would grow or is it harmless to plants and normal ? I pulled out mushroom but still curious if its going to harm plant.

Also plant is leaning a little from height and weight, leaves are healthy, always had fan on it. What can I do to straighten her out ?

Mushrooms won't hurt your plant, but they often indicate excess soil moisture / overwatering. You didn't mention the age of your plants, but they often have trouble supporting themselves in the first couple weeks. I solved this by cutting out a 1x2 inch piece of cardboard and cutting a small "vee" in one end. Placed the blunt end in the soil, and supported the plant stem in the "vee"... worked like a charm, and virtually free. Some people solve this by building up extra soil around the base of the plant, up to an extra inch or more. Haven't tried this, but I'm sure it's fine -- MJ can sprout new roots from anywhere (that's why we can clone it), so that buried stem just becomes part of the root system.

I have a 600 watt hps... now the reflectors are ok but my plant always tips towards the light... always adjust / move your plants around maybe once a day..

Just spin it so the other side gets more light... as for the fan.. do not constantly blow air... this will hurt the plants....

no mushrooms!! some varieties of them are parasitic and will feed off your plant!!
