I know its a long shot...

So I've been doing a lot of reading recently and have been looking into growing mushrooms myself. So anyway I recently acquired a bag of dried mushrooms from a friend. Im a hobby Gardner and have a indoor grow room in my house where I started germinating some flower seeds. Upon inspecting them today I noticed mushrooms had started growing from the bottom of the tp rolls I have them in. Is there a way to tell if they're safe? Is it even possible that spores from the dry bag managed to colonize? Or is it all just wishful thinking and a way to possibly injure myself? I have been seriously wanting to try my hand at growing them, but without a way to obtain spores you could imagine how excited I am about this! Any input or questions on the subject would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

From my knowledge you cannot grow mushrooms or clone them if they are dried, you can eat them tho.... -TheLostBoys

Funny you say that. I stored them in a mason jar and when I opened the jar to get some out I noticed they were a little damp. So I left the jar open for a while. Is this bad? New here so as soon as I figure out how to post a pic I will. I uploaded them somewhere lol

They are not supposed to be damp, leathery or anything like that. Cracker dry is what you want, or they will go bad very fast.

i have cloned a dry fruit 100% possible
edit i just looke duin your gallery. that mushroom growing on the bottom is not a cubensis.Looks like the shrooms you got were wild picked and some spores made along for the ride.
i have seen this mushroom appear as a cross contamination before especial when casing.
