I don’t think popping them was an issue, it was a few hours before the rain hit, they were ready to pop and my son was eager to help them.
I think the idea is that raindrops hit the mushroom which expels the spores, suspect my son’s finger does the job better than the fungi was expecting…but perhaps it would be better to leave them alone.
Have a few video clips of pooping, but not sure how to post/share them
This is so cool!
If you pop them prematurely, does that compromise their ability to spread their wee spores or anything? It must be hard to resist.

Cool. I don’t blame him for wanting to pop them, must be totally tempting and satisfying when you do!
And thanks for the offer but the pooping videos aren’t necessary lmao
(hilarious typos aside, vidéos of these things popping would be super cool if you can figure it out!)
picked a random peertube, does this work?
