i was worried about them causing problems with mah mums, i've been thinking that light could be getting through the pots since they are light blue and white. but if they dont hurt things i wont trip on em then

Mushrooms need lots of moisture and a HIGH humidity all the time. Chances are your over-watering.

Or your not letting them dry out fully before watering.

I get them from time to time in my COCO coir in 2 gallon pots. I use an organic soil booster that I suspect brought them in. I just knock em off and haven't seen any problems.
