The subject is mushroom. No, I don't want to know how to smoke them or eat them. I just want to get rid of them. I know that mushrooms comes from having a fungus in my soil. But it's no fun, continuously raking them out and mowing over. They keep coming back. And since the summer heat is approaching, I really want to try and control this fungus before it really gets out of hand. So, are there any tips of keeping the soil conditioned? And can I get rid of mushrooms without damaging my lawn?
The mushrooms rely on moisture. Be sure not to overwater your lawn. Adding lime to your lawn annually will also help control them. You can organically spot treat problem areas with a mixture of 1 part baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to 2 parts water. Or you can purcase a non-organic fungicide that wil be friendlier to your lawn in your local home/garden store.
