    Looks like a lawn. While some would be sad to have a mushroom taken, this one is likely to be annihilated. Without knowing what kind of shroom may not be a good idea. Getting some spores for edible mushrooms to seed the stump may be better, iirc substrate is often sterilised first though so look into it first.

      The reason to sterilize is.to endure a controlled environment where your target species is not outgrown by something random. I don’t think its going to make much a difference in an uncontrolled outdoor environment where it will be contaminated almost immediately. Its just sort of the luck of the draw

      I’m a novice though, so if you have a different perspective I’d be curious to hear it
