Well, I was talking to my friend and we do horticulture together, and I was telling him about the fungus stalks bursting through your hands, and he said “Oh, too bad he didnt have copper spray then” (which if you dont know kills fungus)
Anyways, I think copper spray could be added as a effective way of killing fungus and destroying the fungus towers. Also, if farming was added itd be a way to keep crops safe.
