You should be able to grow spaceshrooms #23632

Description

As the original concept designer of maints shrooms, I had originally planned them to be kept as a one-in-a-while thing. However, as I've been playing the game more i have started to think of the opportunities this could bring.

What I'm proposing is that you should be able to take a plant clipper and clip one seed per MAINTS shroom variety. This seed can then be used to grow a more tame version of shrooms with semi-randomised randomised reagents (basically increase the variety, decrease the unit volume). However the downside to growing a plant like this is that even if you clip the plant to get a seed; the reagent will always be random. You can swab the shrooms to make other plants have random reagents as well.

The sprite of the tame version of shrooms should be totally different as well, to indicate that it's totally random.

I was disappointed when I couldn't grow spaceshrooms in hydroponic trays

Since kudzu can grow outside a hydroponics tray, we should add maints fungus that can grow itself and spaceshrooms in a small radius and add to maints ecology
