They aren’t there to harm the grass and they certainly won’t affect the roots. So, really, mushrooms are only as bad as how much you dislike the look of them. So, you can overcome this issue with a bit of aerating. Other reasons they can grow in the lawn include poor drainage, which could mean your lawn has a drainage problem. Once that’s done, there will be plenty of nutrients for the lawn to thrive. So the truth is, these toadstools will only stick around until they have gobbled up whatever is rotting in the ground. That’s because they can represent materials under the grass that are rotting, which will eventually provide some nutrients to the lawn.Ī good example of something rotting might be a piece of timber or a tree root. When most people see a mushroom they immediately think ‘Ahh fungi!’ (definitely not ‘fun guy’ hehe). Why are mushrooms growing in my lawn and are they bad? After doing some reading I found it was probably due to the roots I had axed through when levelling the ground. When I was preparing the ground for seed, I had chopped through a hell of a lot of roots. Ahhh! Here’s how I dealt with them (don’t try this at home – you’ll spread the spores, I found out later) I remember when I sowed my first grass seeds and a year after there were mushrooms.

So, this post will give you some insight into why they are growing, how bad they really are and how to get rid of them too. Not quite as bad as a dead pigeon – yeah that happens to us sometimes.īut sure, mushrooms are a bit of an ugly sight when you’ve been taking real good care of your nice green grass. So you head out into the garden on an Autumnal day and all of a sudden – oh no – Mushrooms! Where the heck did they come from?
