Mushrooms and mold in my self watering container

This is a first for me. Gave one plant the chop tonight and took the watering system out of the tent. I find this. The mold is mildly disconcerting but I think it’s on my grow bags as well. No sign on my plants. The mold was on a side rammed up against the tent wall and out of sight.

You don't have to worry if your weed is mold-free. The thing about mushrooms is they do well in the same pH as weed.

To avoid future mushroom growth, keep soil on the drier side, as fungus thrives in consistently moist conditions.
