Do mushroom logs do anything?

Cause they're not doing anything. XD
I restarted a few times, no dice.

Did you put a mushroom in it?

*points up at Piper's answer*

That's likely your issue.
The logs are FOR the mushrooms.
You need to have mushrooms and put them in them for them to start growing.
It's much like the beehives needing flowers and such.

You put one mushroom in and eventually get three out.

Mushroom logs are a bit weird. The empty mushroom log needs to have a mushroom added to it, or nothing will happen. Initially the icon above looks as if one mushroom is ready to be collected, but it's not. You need to wait quite a few in-game days until the icon above changes firstly to two, and then eventually disappears. This might lead you to think something's gone wrong. You will not get an icon for three mushrooms. Right click on the mushroom log and you should harvest three, and then put one straight back in. Rinse and repeat. It's quite a nice way to get mushrooms for cooking and for low effort income.
