detaching shrooms

Anyone know of a good way to detach a mushroom from a rock without harming it?

Thanks

Sure...just slice it just above the base with a clean sharp razor then put it with a rock that you want it to attach to in a very low current area and give it about 2 weeks it will more than likely attach itself...or some ppl use superglue to attach it. More than likely you will get another shroom grow where you sliced it at the base HTH

That's EXACTLY what I did last night. I have a HUGE red mushroom that decided to attach itself to a boulder of a rock. So I sliced it off. I tried to attach it to another rock with superglue, but it pulled itself off. Oh well. I'll let you know how it reacts tonight.
