Hi all, maybe someone can help? I've googled for similar threads in
the past but can't find anything so apologies if this is a regular
question.
I've just done the first cut of the year and there's a lot of green
slime in one part of the grass. It doesn't smell, is very slippery
and seems to be like a coating on the ground.
I'm just posting to say I don't believe this is an FAQ - in fact, I
don't think I've heard of it here before.
I wonder if it could possibly be slime moulds, as you say the area isn't
particularly badly drained? I have what I think is that in my lawn, but
it is grey rather than green.

interesting bunch of organisms.
I'm afraid I have no cures to suggest: I have not tried to get rid of them.
