In the last couple of weeks, I've had a few mushrooms grow in the pot with my jade plant. Is this something I should worry about? Should I just pull them out or leave them alone?

Thanks.

Well, there must be spores & moisture.

Maybe, the soil is staying wet all the time. But, definitely there are spores. You will never find those to remove. So, just pluck the shrooms.

I would pluck the shrooms and water less. Jades don't like to be wet constantly. They like well drained soils. So ya, when you water, make sure the soil is dry first smile

Might want to get a cactus potting soil when you repot the jade too. I'm just a beginner though so it probably isn't necessary.
