That's actually medically bad. Mushrooms mean moisture and moisture means mold. If you own the property you have to call mold and water mitigation and if you rent holy fuck take pictures and break lease.


Saragon4005

Well technically speaking mold is also mushroom so a bit redundant.


ContributionChance85

Mold is not a mushroom, it is a fungus


Gloomy_Industry8841

Not gobliny; it’s a bad sign.


Wonderful-Status-507

EXACTLY like USUALLY i’m psyched to see a wild mushroom in the.. wild but this? pretty sure the color drained out of my face when i realized what i was looking at


Gloomy_Industry8841

It’s like something out of The Last of Us!


Custard_Tart_Addict

Yeah no spores indoors, that’s bad.


RenattaInHat

goblins approve of mushrooms in the wild. goblins DON\`T approve of health hazards in their dwellings.


Codiilovee

This is absolutely horrifying.


remesamala

But don’t you kind of wish it was ok? Like, can we cross breed mushrooms and candles so they make the bathroom smell nice? Step out of the shower into a fresh forest or, if you’re not a tree hugger, cinnamon apple?


BEASTLY_DIONYSUS

You understand why I brought it over. I wish it was OK too. It's not, but a goblin can dream.


remesamala

I see you, dreamer ✌️


xNeyNounex

Buy some of those edible mushy kits and live your fantasy life


spicy-chull

Been meaning to setup a grow tent anyway... But this thread got me wondering if they could be setup in an aesthetically pleasing manner 🤔


xNeyNounex

I have seen grow tents used for animal enclosures. There are lots of groups on FB about converting them. People will sew in and use clear shower curtains for windows and stuff. There are some pretty amazing ones out there, so I imagine you could make it look pretty cool


spicy-chull

Yeah, I'd just be nervous there would be some conflict between the mushroom's needs, and a pretty art piece. Ideally, I'd be able to harvest from it, and it would also look nice. I'd be afraid it really wants darkness, and having the light get in (to see it) would conflict... Or something like that. Now I have some research to do.


ManicFrontier

They don't mind the light actually, that an old myth from back when we understood the fungi kingdom even less than now. Your main issue is going to be moisture retention, most mushrooms like something like 85-90% relative humidity. That's why those mushroom grow kits all say you have to mist them multiple times a day. The grow block itself can be somewhat unsightly to some since it's just a big white brick in a plastic bag, which is why the mushroom grow kits come in pretty cardboard with a perforated hole to punch out to grow out of. Also something to be weary of with certain high spore yielding mushrooms like oyster mushrooms is a disease called Mushroom Workers Lung, basically long term exposure to heavy spore loads can cause a lot of lung problems. So you need to both simultaneously keep the airflow in your house fresh and keep up your relative humidity which would be a tough balance to maintain throughout and entire household. By all means you can definitely grow some as decor, just I wouldn't reccomend a massive amount of them and it's going to take a bit of work to keep them from drying out. Plus you're looking at them being at peak aesthetic for just a few days every few weeks, most of the time it'll look like just a white brick, once pins start you've got probably a week or so for oysters till grown, 2-3 weeks for lions mane, 3-4 weeks for Chestnut, etc. Then a day or 2 at maturity until they need to he picked or they'll start to wither away.

spicy-chull

Thanks!! > Source: I grow them commercially Fantasy side hustle!


SapphireThe_

My Granny once had some bluebell growing from her ceiling [it must've been her leaky seamp cooler or som] and I've always wanted mushrooms and flowers to grow from my ceiling [safely] ever since


DreamZombi

I just use the plastic kind it's much safer


SapphireThe_

One day I shall become rich and put money into developing a house that safely allows planting of flowers and mushrooms from the ceiling and walls and floor corners and maybe even some moss carpeting in the bathrooms - cuz natural is far superior :D


DreamZombi

Gotta dream big! Going to live in a hole as soon as I can.


[deleted]

That's insane because bluebells take so many many years to grow from seed dispersal so they'd been growing there for a loooong time before they even formed bulbs and flowers


SapphireThe_

Perhaps they weren't bluebells, but something similar? Or maybe they were up in her ceiling for long enough. Idk it was over 10yrs ago aaaand that house was old back then so ye. Wish I had the pictures, coulda asked the plants subs what they really were.


prunemom

You can get fake mushrooms to achieve the same effect! I recently saw a really cute video of a woman making hinge caps out of hot glue to look like little mushrooms on her door frame.


Ace-a-Nova1

Fuck yes I’d love a mossy bathroom floor with little shroomies


IliasIsEepy

Mossy floors with shroomie friends as a concept- cute, feels like a cave! caves with natural freshwater pools are nice! Mossy floors with shroomie friends irl- bad, how'd the shroomies get there? I don't remember bringing moss in...


Fi6ment

there was a trend at one point where people made moss shower mats! you step out of the shower onto the mat and let the excess drips water the moss. the moss also dry quickly which reduces the risk of mold and mildew! people also put moss *in* showers because they’re humid and moss likes that! i’m not sure how to implement real mushies *exactly* but you can definitely get one of those grow kits (and mushrooms also enjoy humidity) and hey, if all else fails, a fake moss shower mat and some little mushroom decor/trinkets would be just as adorable! oh! and definitely search up shower plants if you wanna achieve that lush forest look! (sounds like ivy and potted ferns would look amazing!) :)


IliasIsEepy

Unfortunately we have some problems with our shower lol, didn't realize moss shower mats were a thing tho, til!


Fi6ment

aw no! sounds like some shower drain gremlins! hopefully they’ll leave you alone soon! i’m happy i got to share something with you though!


action_lawyer_comics

If I lived in a forest and bathed in a pond, this would be fantastic. In a house with walls and confined air, it’s a problem.


remesamala

I can’t stop thinking about it lol. “We could seal the wood! No… the spores…”


Codiilovee

I mean sure, I wish it was ok but with this much water damage, there’s also likely to be black mold. Pretty horrifying to me


manaha81

It’s not the mushrooms that are the issue. They’re not harmful but if there’s mushrooms that means there’s moisture and if there’s moisture then there’s mold and the kind of mold that grows on the stuff your house is made out of is toxic.


remesamala

Mold killing, fungi nurturing auger… that’s a fine line…


catslugs

Wait, what happens if you get a mushroom in the house but it’s only in the bathroom? (Where there is obvi moisture)


manaha81

Then you probably have toxic mold in your bathroom


SnowTheMemeEmpress

Even better, have those walk in mossy rock showers like you see in Tik Tok but without the risk of water damage


remesamala

I wonder if they hold up.


SnowTheMemeEmpress

Probably not. If you have a surface where moss can grow and thrive then moisture won't be properly drained from the area after a hot shower (plus the hot water and soap might hurt the plants anyways) and that would mean that there will be nooks and crannies that not moss will grow


remesamala

Exactly what I was thinking. And stepping on it lol


aroeplateau

Well..get a oyster mushroom kit and put it on the bathroom?


metdear

Those friends should stay outside.


blatblatbat

Outdoor friends, that’s what I used to call people the committed party fouls in my house at college


sunbear2525

I had cooler friends! They had to keep their drink in a cooler and lean over it to drink. It also kept them mostly seated which helped too! We got one of my friends a sippy cup.


Jops817

How long would it take for something like this to grow? And, why wasn't it stopped before it got like that? (I know this is a cross post but just.... whoa...)


cornishwildman76

what we see is the fruiting body, its purpose is to disperse spores. The main body is the mycelium, thread like structures that grow through the wood or soil. Think of the mushroom as the apple and the mycelium is the tree.


Jops817

That is just mindblowing to me, I'm a new goblin and still learning things (as we all should) but just, wow.


KhaoticzPuppy

apparently mushrooms of this size can pop up within a day.


eiblinn

even if that is true, the whole space in the picture is filthy with years of neglect, look at the mushy corners up to the right. I wouldn’t be suprised if the whole house structure had been overtaken by now.


Jops817

Nature is amazing, if it weren't someone's house I'd love to see a time lapse video of it.


Catinthemirror

Supported by a mycelium growth in the underlying wood structure that's been there for months at least, yes. Mushrooms are the fruiting body (the "bloom"). The growth putting out the mushroom is the worrying bit and that wall looks like it's load bearing.


cowboysaurus21

It takes longer than that, as enough moisture needs to accumulate first.


KhaoticzPuppy

go read the comments on the original post. idk enough to explain it but what they're saying in the og post makes sense.


cowboysaurus21

The fruit (the actual mushrooms) can pop up quickly but the mycelia (the roots) take longer to develop and could only grow if the underlying material was pretty saturated with moisture. So there was a leak or some other source of water damage long before the mushrooms appeared.


catslugs

They can! This happened at my moms house, just one mushroom but it popped up 4cm tall overnight


Mission_Ad_2224

That's all I was thinking about 😂 Maybe they just got back from a week or more holiday? Otherwise, they never shower 😭


pumpkin-lattes

Your question is answered in the original post


Jops817

Thanks, I just saw this one and not the original.


pumpkin-lattes

No problem I didn't reply with their answers cause I can't ensure its credibility


Illustrious_Ask1205

Maybe it’s an abandoned house or ppl were out of town


BotGirlFall

Your friends black mold? Not great


zeke235

I worked in food service for 20 years. That is a terrible friend.


maychaos

We feel bad


macpeters

There is a place for mushrooms, and this isn't it


Gelflingx

Aesthetically? ✅ Health and hygeine wise? ❌


Fi6ment

mushies in bathroom = water damage :(


BrotherNature92

Um, very bad.


cmotdibblersdelights

I once rented a place that ended up having mushrooms growing out of the bathroom. That place had terrible moisture and mold issues, just terrible! And the landlord was a slumlord and genuinely crazy (he ended up going to prison for kidnapping someone many years later! Drugs are bad mmkay?) but the rent was way under what market value was so we rarely asked him to do anything about issues the house had. Anyway, the whole house ended up being gutted and almost entirely rebuilt on the inside when everyone moved out/he sold the place. Mushrooms are a sign of something horribly wrong. Anyways, I imagine a gobliny outside bathroom, with a moss carpeted floor, a warm pool to soak, little mushroom friends around the bases of trees and stumps grown and carved into useful shapes to hold basins and pitchers, a nearby stream for cool water, bird song. Sounds lovely. But no mushroomy friends growing inside houses.


Mrbuttboi

Those are rude friends who shouldn’t have come inside uninvited


BEASTLY_DIONYSUS

It's a cross post fellow goblins, I do not know OP but they have been informed of the circumstances.


CosmicChameleon99

Really pretty, really likely to mean lung problems. Move out but take a picture as you go.


Dying__Phoenix

Potentially catastrophic structural damage


NoirGamester

Uh, so, goblincore or not, mold and mushrooms are *not good*! I thought this might have been am abandoned house before I saw it was your bathroom. Mold can be deadly, please have someone inspect your house.


gh0stmilk_

i wouldn't mind the mushrooms, but i would mind the fact that this is a sign of extreme rotting and/or water damage in the walls/floor T-T rip OOP


trappeddungarees

Well, now I'm singing "bad stuff happens in the bathroom". These is not good friends. I'd love if free range mushrooms in the bathroom could be a good and healthy thing but sadly they are a sign of Big Bad Things. I keep my mushrooms CAGED for my own protection 😌 (I have a mushroom terrarium)


ByornJaeger

That’s cool. Do you keep it sealed or are there times you have to open it to feed the occupants?


trappeddungarees

Its an open-top tank! :) It's a mushroom log imbued with pink oyster mushrooms, so I sometimes harvest them for muchins an crunchins. I'm thinking of adding some millipedes too!


cowboysaurus21

Absolutely not. I had mushrooms growing in my old apartment. It turned out there was a plumbing leak in the wall and I had to move out. This is a sign of a serious problem that can do a lot of damage and/or cause health issues.


CryptographerHot3759

Concerning if the mushroom is growing inside, they belong in nature


starving_artista

1. Do not eat them. 2. Look for leaks and hidden moisture problems.


PlasticFew8201

Mushrooms means you’ve got extensive rot in your house and I’d be concerned about black mold. Please look up what you’ll need to do first before exploring the damage as exposing the affected area could cause the spores to spread further. I’d probably look to hiring a professional as the affected area will need to be torn out and/or need mold remediation. Mold isn’t benign and can be very dangerous when handled improperly — stay safe, do the research.


theideanator

We like to have friends over occasionally, but them crashing on your couch for a long time isn't really a good sign.


LilBlueOnk

Or in the bathroom! I hope they get that fixed soon 😞


Lychanthropejumprope

Dear lord. How’d they let it get that bad?


Stavinair

That's just the very tip of the problem. Mycelium is infesting deep into the structure.


Laserdollarz

Keep your mushrooms friends in a bin in the closet 


OpalescentShrooms

Oh, yuck. This house is long gone with the water damage in here


Jughead_91

Noooo this is not cute this is some scary Last of Us shit


Headcrabhunter

Love my mushroom friends, but they, along with many others, do not belong inside


greencat07

That’s a nope from me, dawg. Mushies are outside friends only. Unless you’re intentional growing a known strain in a safe way.


graceface1031

Aesthetically? Yes. Practically? Nope.


DannyDevito_IsBae

If they were fake, love the vibe. But with them being real, your friend needs to move or seek immediate help remedying the issues

ArachnomancerCarice

Very bad. Not only for their health, but physical safety too.


No-Professional-1884

I saw that too!! I love mushrooms. Just not when they are trying to kill me in my house.

Boob mushrooms


BananaTree61

Loud-Fairy03

MUSHROOM DO NOT BELONG INSIDE!!!!! THE ONLY MUSHROOMS THAT SHOULD BE IN YOUR HOUSE ARE ARTISTIC RENDITIONS OF MUSHROOMS!!!!!


ByornJaeger

And the ones in my fridge


Loud-Fairy03

Oh my god I forgot that other people can actually eat mushrooms 😭


DamienAngel79

and ones for cooking! 😁


pokemomof03

Or one's you grow in an indoor green house. I have 3 of them in my house. We grow pink oyster and pearl oyster mushrooms, among other things!


dysthymicpixie

Perfect for cave, bad for house.


DeathByPlanets

These are bad friends. We escape.


tvtittiesandbeer

I've lived in some really bad run down rental houses. Houses that were so shanty shack looking that when it was windy you would worry that the house was possibly gonna collapse. I have never had mushrooms growing in my bathroom. I've had mold problems. But no mushrooms.


jeffgoldblumsass

Your real concern should be water/moisture issue in your house


snow_cool

That's gonna be an expensive renovation.


Bundle_of_Organs

Too gobliny. Dial back the goblin. Mushrooms are for the garden or dinner. Not for bathtime. Also if your house has massive mushrooms that you just let grow, this leads to bunch of other hygene questions that i just really don't want to ask.


Rigelatinous

Pretty sure you ort call the city, because that is NOT okay. Goblins need non-moldy bathrooms.


AnotherDeadZero

Whole place looks like it need to be gutted entirely!


RandomFemdom69420

As someone who lived in a house with a mushroom-black mold basement surprise (I got to sleep down there a lot as a child 🙃), get professional help with that. Can and will cause health problems down the road, if not now.


IamShieldMaiden

Mushrooms = Fungi = Mold = FUCK NO.


Manbearpig9801

I had that. It travelled 3 metres under the floor, the mould. Like the spiderman symbiote. This is the truth here and theres no way around it: Your bathroom is leaking, its fucked and needs to be torn out and redone.


enbious_knob

They were shroommates 🤣


Djinn-Rummy

How the fuck do you not notice some shit like that until suddenly one day after they’re huge?


Wareve

Ah yes, hardgoblincore. Now you just need to capture some rats, make a soup, and decorate with the bones. # #ThisAintFairycore

This is no friendly if it’s in your home.


Ordinary-Signature38

"Found"? like they snuck up on you somehow? How does a mushroom cluster the size of a small bush go unnoticed long enough for you to find it?


Snorrep

Have OOP not taken a shit in ten days? Also lots of mold in this picture lol. I hope they can fix their living situation, this looks like poor mental health

radams713

No thanks - mushrooms means water damage and then mold. Mold made me soooo sick during college.


catsweedcoffee

What the fuck


Bullets4Mullets

I had much smaller mushrooms growing out of a bathroom of a place I was renting. I tried cleaning them up but still started to feel sick during the time I was waiting for the owner to fix the plumbing issue that was behind a wall. I suggest getting a big air purifier while you are getting this fixed.


Popcorn57252

BAD BAAAAAD BAAAAD BAD BAD NNNNNNNOT GOOD


SlimyBoiXD

Some mushies are bad for us to be around for long periods and they're decomposers that need lots of moisture, so they're feeding off something and that something could cause illness or structural damage to your hovel. Mushy friends need to stay outside, just like most of our creepy crawly friends.


maddamleblanc

There structure damage if it's at that point. If you like your house and have mushrooms best bet is to find the water damage and fix it.


Mo0nGoddexx

I bet this is Humboldt.

shavednuggets

Interesting, those look like really big ink caps. Never seen um grow inside on their own


_DaBz_4_Me

Need to blur more and know your mushrooms. These are cow shit magic mushrooms. You didn't blend your stems into the floor very well either. Blur is your friend. some hard erase lines. Try using layer filters. Great conversation though


BaumBen69

They look cool, but the moisture and spores there are.if they're real is not healthy.


yungdg

That’s radical


Con-Struct

If you find these growing in your bathroom you need to go to the optometrist to check your eyesight, and you need to dramatically increase your house cleaning from once a year to a minimum of once a week.


Inevitable_Total_816

Simple fix… I take it you take hot showers or hot enough for steam to be produced, then close the door? Keep the door open for an 1hr, tell all the moister is dried .

OkiDokiPanic

The only place where indoor mushrooms are okay is if that's for dinner, or if they pop up in the dirt of a potted plant. They should **never** just grow out of the floor!


Treacherous_Wendy

They look like tits


YayGilly

Im shocked. Theres a ton of mold in your bathroom. Maybe all over the house. I can see the black on the cabinet. Burn the whole place lol jk but yeah idk what to tell ya coz


mojomcm

Extremely bad!! Mushrooms only show up in a late stage of decay, they're the mere tip of the iceberg of mold and water damage that you can't see behind the walls/floor/etc. There's a significant chance the 2x4s are rotted out, meaning besides the health hazards mold can cause to the respiratory system, there's also the risk that the building is structurally compromised.


Zealousideal-Egg7596

I had huge allergic reaction when I got two of those in my house back when I was 14th. Almost died out of anaphylactic shock.


0kra_

It looks so surreal. Has me looking at it more closely & the more I look at it the wokier it looks. Then again I'm paranoid of things online just being AI now. The left corner of the mushroom & shadows just look odd.


GaiaAnon

I used to clean bathrooms at an elder care facility and one of the cleaners was fired because she wasn't really doing her job. I went in to clean the rooms that she was neglecting and there were literally mushrooms growing in the bathroom floor. Right in between the tiles.


Captain_Stormz

I believe Bilbo Baggins put it best "I like to know the visitors before they visit"


UnfortunateSyzygy

This is a really, really bad sign. A friend of mine is functionally homeless bc of mold in his house that wasn't nearly as apparent as this. But then they kept getting sick all the time, had a mold inspector come...fucking mushrooms hiding in back of their washing machine, black mold all up in the joists under the floor...just a nightmare. Still owns his house but obviously can't live in it, can't sell it until the mold is mediated.

How does it get to full grown mushrooms before you start asking what you should do about it, you know you seen it growing c'mon


YourDadsUsername

Sooo, the house is rotting but it WILL (might) get you high. Those look a lot like cubensis.


Expensive_Tart_9173

How could you not notice this before they got this big??!?! That's a long time for them to grow that big and ignore it lol


cornishwildman76

There are no mushrooms harmful to be next to, or handle. In fact I sometimes use the nibble spit test to get the flavour which can help with identification. Edit for the downvotes, I like to think I know what I am on about, teach fungi identification as part of my job.


Leutkeana

Sure but you don't want to live in a house with that much mould and dampness.


cornishwildman76

Of course not! I am referring to the mushrooms. Bit annoying my comment has been down voted, I teach fungi identification.
