Just noticed this growth on my toadstool. Anyone noticed this before on there’s?

I don’t know, but with those strings coming off of it, I would remove it.

It does look like a pineapple sponge growth but i didn't think it would grow on a toadstool

They even grow on my torches stalks right up next to the flesh. Irritating them to the point where they won't grow in that area.

It may not be a pineapple sponge as I don't think they shoot out threads like that one is seeming to do.

I'd remove it no matter what it was especially growing on the leather.

I don't think it's a pineapple sponge. It does look like some variety of harmless filter feeder though.
