I dug them out with my pocketknife since I don't want to be breathing any spores released.
Knowing that you use an organic fertilizer the plant is in good shape.

You may actually turn it over(mix it back in) in the soilless mix and that would be more beneficial tp the plant. Certain beneficial fungi and bacteria are mixed into organic products to facilitate extraordinary root development.
The type of fungi and bacteria used in organics is not the type that will make you ill.

Hey, you never know.
A jump to an 18-24 gal container might be somewhat more manageable with the possibility of a flower.
