Mushrooms Season Dates

As for those who are in the Southern Hemisphere, you will be able to encounter them from May 1 to May 31. Please make the best use of time as all grown mushrooms around the island will be gone once the new month starts at 5 AM of December for the Northern Hemisphere and June for the Southern Hemisphere.
Mushroom Variations
Animal Crossing New Horizons has a few mushroom variations. These variations include:

Way to Find More Mushrooms Fast
In order to find more mushrooms fast in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you will have to plant trees close to each other. During the Mushrooming Season, a total of five pieces of mushroom will grow around Hardwood and Pine (Cedar) trees every day. Planting the trees close to each other is effective to collect all the mushrooms easily.
The second thing is that you can consider decreasing the numbers of the trees in case you have many of them. You can do it by cutting them down. Please think about this as it may take you time to look for the 5 pieces of mushroom every day.
It is possible for you to get up to 30 mushrooms on your island at once. You will need to get the daily island wide broadcast to do it unless the mushrooms will not show up and there is no chance for you to get everything. To be able to collect a total of up to 30 mushrooms on your island at the same time, make sure to spare your time to listen to the broadcast and save. Do not skip even a day. Please do the thing that is recommended before and then bring all the 30 mushrooms.
