I wasn't worried that mushrooms were harmful to the lawn. I just assumed it meant I was over-watering. Learn something every day.

I was just noticing some mushrooms in my lawn. I reseeded last fall and put down a lot of organic matter. Glad I noticed your video. I thought I might need to put down some antifungal agent. Thanks for the timely information!

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

I'm VERY glad you caught the video then, fungicides are used far too often in lawn care IMO; they harm so much good stuff in the soil. There is a time and place for them but I'm glad you didn't go that far in this situation. Also, yep that fall topdressing is likely the cause of what you are seeing now, it's what you want to see.

Awesome, I thought mushrooms in the lawn was bad.. we have them a little here and there over the lawn. Not a huge amount, but an even spread. I'm feeling great now 😋 Thanks for the info and video! ❤

@TurfMechanic 19 дней назад

So glad to set your mind at ease and glad you caught the video. I should have also added in the video that natural deposits of tree droppings like leaves sticks and needles, even grass clippings, provide enough organic material at surface level for some mushrooms to form so even if you don't topdress and have sandy soil those mushrooms can still form...almost always it's a good sign. 😃

@ChrisFredriksson 19 дней назад

@@TurfMechanic I'm taking the video and your comment as "its a good sign", not "almost always" 😂😋 I know there can of course be problems, but the lawn seems to be in "good" shape, we have quite a bit of moss also, but not really in the same place. I will be removing the moss with dethatching tool behind the lawn tractor, just need to have some dry days first. Also, I'm trying a a row or two on one of the lawns and will have grass seeds ready with pre germniation for that also. Just waiting for some buckets and paint filter bags to do that method. Never tried it, all this is new to me, so will be fun to test and see if I can make it like all the RU-vidrs 😂😋 Thanks for the reply!

Just started seeing some mushrooms, I'd much rather have those than stalky seed heads.

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

absolutely! The seed heads are so annoying, they dull the mower, always grow taller than the leaf tissue, and they just keep coming back relentlessly

@@TurfMechanic tell me about it, my seed head stalks feel like plastic, I'm having to sharpen my blade twice as much until this phase ceases. Please keep your KBG patch!

I have morels growing in my front lawn. Last year I put down peat as a top dressing on the overseed. I saw on our security camera someone walk by and pick one, luckily they must have had second thoughts and dropped it as I chemically treat my lawn.

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

wow, that's pretty cool to see them right out in the front yard. Might make you think twice about continuing to treat with chems over the next couple seasons. :D

I'm not sure if I have the same mushrooms in my lawn. Mine just told me all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves.

@TurfMechanic 15 дней назад

Oh man, definitely different than mine, you've got the good mushrooms I think 😂

@denisemiller8474 18 дней назад

I have mushrooms everywhere in my lawn some in dry brown grass . I pick them when I see them I heard they were caused by over watering your lawn. I’m putting down a liquid lawn thatcher too get more air too my lawn the dirt is very hard from being in a place where it’s hot and no rain . Eastern Washington. Yakima area . I use liquid iron it helps too . I hand pluck every weed so I have no weeds anymore. When we moved in the whole lawn was weeds get the roots . We have a lot of binding vine weed and can’t kill it with any product so it has to be continually pulled . It’s almost gone but blows in from the neighbors errrr.

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

I've got a soft spot for hand pulling weeds. I do it a lot and enjoy it on those days when I want to relax a little. I just sit on the grass, watch the kids play and slowly pull weeds. LOL Having said that though herbicides have their place. Have you tried Triclopyr on the vine weed? It should be perfectly safe for your cool season grass and it should be the toughest on viney undesirables.

@Todd.T 16 дней назад

I only get mushrooms if I water very late in the evening.

@DrDennis 19 дней назад

Mushroom feed off roots from dead or cut down trees for yrs

@TurfMechanic 19 дней назад

yep, that's very true, many things down there take a long time to break down, also why many places where trees used to be tend to become sunken over time, and they also tend to be wetter areas of the lawn.

@georgerobarge7826 19 дней назад

I have Tulip Poplar tree in my front yard and also have mushrooms growing all over. Could the flowers that have been dropping off the tree be what's causing the mushrooms to grow? I haven't added organic matter myself so the flowers falling on the ground is the only thing I can think of.

@stevensparks19 18 дней назад

Certainly possible. I just bought a home last year with 3 gigantic silver maples in the back yard. Typical MD clay soil, but you can see a very obvious and clear difference where the leaves were dropping under them for years and not being collected and allowed to decay over time. In the only section of my back yard that wouldn’t have been as covered with them - the ground is much more compacted and nearly exclusively clay. Soil is interesting. I believe tulip poplars are deciduous trees, so it’s possible the flowers and leaves over time have decayed and been worked into your soil by worms and critters.

@georgerobarge7826 18 дней назад

@@stevensparks19 Come to think of it I actually mulched the leaves into the soil last fall/winter. So I guess that could be part of it as well.

@stevensparks19 17 дней назад

@@georgerobarge7826 certainly could! I laid some grass seed this spring and top dressed it with leafgro, and I had a few areas with maaaaaassive mushrooms that popped up. Leaves are such an undervalued resource. If you have the room/are interested/can be bothered, I highly recommend turning your fall leaves into leaf mould if you do go through the effort to collect them. Many different ways out there to set up an area to allow the leaves to decompose and turn into a wonderful humus to top dress with, whether it’s gardens or the lawn. To do a whole lawn would require quite a bit though, so I use mine in the garden mostly.

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

I'd echo what Steven said, the tree droppings are a natural topdressing or OM, especially if you mulch the stuff into the lawn the soil under that tree is probably higher in OM and probably has a higher EC than the other parts of your lawn. It's also shaded so moisture content doesn't evaporate out of the top couple inches as fast.

@TurfMechanic 17 дней назад

years before I ran this channel I lived on a half acre property with about 15 mostly mature deciduous trees. I set up three huge leaf mold bins way out back and each year I'd collect as many leaves as I could and place them in one of the bins. Each year I'd take the previous years leaves and move them to the second bin, and the second to the third, and the third bin would get placed in the garden, some my wife and I would amend into the soil, others we would use as a mulch on top. I never did set this up on our last property (the one I started this channel at) because we didn't have enough deciduous trees, and now here at our current place we don't have hardly any leaf cleanup to do either, but it worked so great at our old, old house.
