00:00A boom in growing mushrooms at home in the U.K. has some plant experts concerned.
00:08According to top-level gardeners in the country, fears are rising that the population practice
00:13could lead to a biodiversity disaster.
00:17Scientists explain non-native mushrooms grown in gardens or disposed of in compost heaps
00:23could become invasive and decimate local ecosystems.
00:27Researchers add the exotic fungi could end up spreading through the soil, altering the
00:32microbiology and become almost impossible to get rid of.
00:36Previously popular garden plants that have ended up becoming invasive, harming homes
00:40and the environment include the Japanese knotweed and bamboo.
00:45Experts suggest when buying mushroom growing kits, growers should plant species that are
00:50native to the U.K., such as oyster mushrooms and coral tooth fungus, so they don't spread
00:55and damage the local environment.
