I had the same thing happen to me when i bought new horizons grow bags last year- some had orange fungi and others had white fungi- they did the crop of tomatoes and courgettes no harm whatsoever. the fungus was growing from woodchips and probably helped out by speeding up the breakdown of the larger chip.

I think that the problem comes from the producers just not leaving the compost long enough before they bag-it up.

I have since had bags full of soil flies from them -- so you can get surprises. If the palnts are suffering then you can re-plant them i guess...

hope that gives a bit of reassurance.
