Toadstools
Arthur
I was particularly concerned about winter, when the grass can be too wet to walk on, and in my ignorance thought there might be even more of them. As to my lawn being *too* perfect - did you see those porkers passing by in the air last night? Incidentally we had new turf laid around the middle of April. It was 'cultivated' and looked really weed free for several weeks, but now the weeds are proliferating but it says on 'weed and feed', spot weed killers etc, that you shouldn't use them until the lawn has been down for 6 months. I'm in a bit of a quandary about this, also. Best regards and thanks for the reply, Aileen "Arthur" wrote in message ... The fungus is unlikely to be putting up toadstools during the winter, so you won't need to worry about that. If you don't have small children to eat them, why not just leave them? At the risk of being controversial, sometimes a lawn can look TOO perfect and unnatural. - Arthur "Aileen Howard" wrote in message ... Sarah I would have to mow *every day* to keep them out of sight. They grow to around 3 inches overnight. Oh, how I wish I could eat them sigh. (perhaps I could, but I'm not 'ready to go' just yet). At the moment I go out every morning to pick them and throw them in the bin - won't be much fun in the winter, when the grass is wet and soggy:-( Aileen "Sarah Dale" wrote in message news On Wed, 30 Jul 2003 12:43:47 +0100, Aileen Howard wrote: Sorry to be boring, but I asked a while ago about how to get rid of toadstools from a new lawn. If this has been answered previously, can someone tell me how to access the archives please? Just mow reguarly Aileen - that should keep them out of sight. If you want, you could dig them out by hand carefully, but not worth IMO if you are mowing. Sarah |
