In Terraria, the mud block seems a little useless, I read on the crappy Wikia page that Mud blocks can be used to grow mushrooms in some fashion.
From Mud on Wikia:
Mud is slightly darker than normal
Dirt. It will sustain Underground
Jungle grass as well as Mushroom
Grass, but only at below-zero depths.The largest single source of Mud in
any given world is the Underground
Jungle.Does anyone know how to do this?
Should I plant mud blocks next to some green growth?

As long as your depth (as per a depth meter) is below “sealevel”, both types of grass can be planted.
Here’s an example mushroom farm:
For further instruction on how to best take advantage of mushroom farms like the above, see the wiki.
