Growing onions indoors

Question

I have sweet onions grown from seed and were started in March, so about 6-7 weeks old. Yesterday, I noticed several little orange-like growths protruding upwards from the soil. They are about 3/4″ in height, loosely resemble a mushroom and seem randomly placed. Please advise….

Answer 1

Can you include a photo? This does sound like a fungus, but to be sure, it will be easier for me to identify what it is when I have a picture. From the description, it could be a type of stinkhorn, but a photo will help me to be sure.
