Mushrooms!

[DeeVeeEight]

Back to my lawn care issues.... I have mushrooms sprouting each morning, only where the new sod was put down. Are mushrooms a problem? Isn't "fungus" bad for a lawn?

I have a few white mushrooms too, funny enough that the mushrooms are in those areas where the grass looks healthy.... I just mow the mushrooms just like the rest of the lawn... :clap:

It's freaky how fast they grow.

I'll send you some and you can let us know. I ain't lickin' 'em what with 5 dogs peein' and poopin' back there.

I had the same thing in a newly sodded area. Had a pretty wet June around here and the mushrooms popped up overnight. The next sunny day would usually burn them to a crisp.

Good as in tastey, or good as in good?

Up in central Florida back in the very early 70's you could find the good ones everywhere.
Later in the 70's I visited some friends in Indiana and all of these older (50+) people were raving about going out in the country on the weekends "mushrooming", and of course never having been there before, I thought all these people were really fucked up, doing that stuff at that age. It turns out that for a few weeks only in the springtime, up there, you can find wild mushrooms in the woods that they consider a real delicacy, as in taste. My mushrooming days didn't last long after I stepped on a stubby rattler crossing a ditch on a dirt road.:banghead:

25 years ago I met up with the son of former senator Frank Church of Idaho....he was pretty big on the hill in them daze and wanted to legalize pot, among other things....

seems his son had a degree in botany and in doing so, fell into the funny 'shrooms trick....he got busted, but his old man bailed and straightened his ass out....he was leaving town to marry the .gov's daughter....must be nice....

he was a funny guy, we used to laugh our asses off about all the krazy shit that's happened to both of us.....his life was even weirder than mine....

Don't shrooms grow where rotting wood/roots are under the surface. I have lots of them near stumps, probably because it's rained so much.

I had heard that too, but I have a 10 y/o rotting ~3' diameter tree stump in back, and nary ONE shroom has sprouted......but up front, it's quit common...

go figger....:shocking:
