What are these eggs?

8 years ago

We found these little pebble looking things in one of our flower pots today. They're really small, say 1/8 inch,
in a cluster, fairly irregular shaped, and one of them squirted liquid
when I smished it. I think they might be eggs of some kind but really
have no idea. We're in Brisbane. Does anyone know what these
are? Thanks.

It's the growth of simple fungal hyphae and mycelium from a fungus that is feeding on the potting medium. This fungus (mushroom) is commonly found in houseplants. It's time for you to find a better container! Do a little research about the best kinds for the type of orchid you have. It can be very inexpensive.
