Q.What Are These.

I went to water my marigold plant today and I saw these weird looking sprouts. I’m new to gardening so I don’t know much but I searched how marigold sprouts look like, but these were not it. When I opened one of them, a liquid came out.

They look like some type of fungus, like a mushroom or toadstool. They are beneficial to the soil but you can easily remove them by hand. Discard in the trash as they might be poisonous.
