Are mushrooms growing in a lawn good or bad? What is causing the mushrooms to grow in a lawn? Are the mushrooms that are growing in the lawn poisonous? This video answers all of these questions about what to do when mushrooms are growing in your grass.
Mushrooms are actually the fruiting bodies of beneficial fungi and are actually a good sign. Fungi are one of the only microbes that decomposes woody material like decaying tree roots, leaves and rotting wood.
