    Hi

    I laid some new turf about 8 weeks ago. It looks great apart from the sudden abundance of mushrooms growing. They are small, brown and thin stalked. Noticed a just a few about two weeks ago. I then mowed the lawn and in the past week the whole turf is covered in them!

    What can i do to get rid!

    Cheers, mark

    Hi Mark

    Don't worry about the mushrooms just keep mowing the lawn as usual. It's because of all this rain we have been getting. I have the same problem when doing mine, they disappear after a couple of mowings. Hope this helps.
