Trich showing up on casing with mature mushies

So I have a small patch of trich on a casing. The mushrooms are ready to pick. Two of them are in the trich patch, and the base of their stems have become discolored. The others look fine.
Should all of these be thrown out, or are the untouched shrooms ok?

I really can't say any answer to that. If they were mine, I would inspect em and dry em before consuming. I also would like to be definitely sure that they are safe to consume because eating em with any doubts would lead my trip to hell.
This is just my opinion, generally It's wise to toss em away.

Throw away the fruits with the trich. The rest are fine.

I would just chop the parts of the mushies that have trich on them off and then dry the rest of it.

My understanding is that trich isn't dangerous to humans it just kills your grow because it takes over. So you should be able to just clean it off and be good to go.

I would think, that as long as the sections of trich. infection are removed, it would be safe to eat. I mean even if the mushrooms some how transported toxins from the contaminant, your going to dry them out immediately, so there wouldn't even be a chance. Don't follow my recommendations though, do what ever you think is best.

It's definitely trichoderma. Pick the mushrooms and trash the rest of the tray as said. There won't be anything wrong with the fruits. Trichoderma is not toxic to healthy humans and is even considered a beneficial organism by organic vegetable gardeners. RR

Right. Just cut off the trich from the bases of the fruits you harvest, because trichoderma has a nasty dirt taste, even though it's harmless to us when eaten. Toss out that tray though.
I'll move this to the contamination forum. RR
