This is my take on shrooms.

I am with Bushwack and Mike.

Much of the local Supersoils(soils high in organics and compost sold @ 50.00 a yard) sold locally will have a shroom bloom within a few months.
Much of the black landscape mulch has a high content of fungal spores.
The result could look like yellow /orange puke to the typical mushroom.
The product is not pasteurized so to speak.

When installing new plant beds this is what is recommended.
Basjoos love this stuff.
