Hi,
I’ve managed to grow some sweet pea seedlings but have collected a few hitchhikers along the way and hoped for your advice.

I used a shop bought compost for veg (it was all I had at the time), and soon after planting some green appeared on top which I assumed was mould but close up looks like eggs - what do you think? Egg of friend or foe?
I also appear to have grown a lot of mushrooms too! I assume the spores were in the compost. I know soil naturally contains fungal spores but just wanted to check it was ok to use the rest of this compost/plant out these sweet peas (when the time comes)?
Grateful for your advice and patience with this absolute beginner!
