I went out to check on my beloved red potatos today and what did I find??? Teensy Tiny mushroom shaped fungus of some sort in all four of my potato containers! What is it and what on earth should I do to get rid of it?

Here's a link to a picture of the dreaded mushroomy fungi:

This one is a close up of the same thing:

I need to figure out something soon because it's time to add more soil to "hill" the plants.

mushrooms like wood in the soil and lots of humus. I do not know how to get rid of it without possible damaging the potatoes. I hope you find the answer you are looking for.
