Summer Tips for Lawn Care

Summer Mushrooms

Proper watering, fertilizing and mowing are essential to maintain a beautiful lawn.

When the days are hot,the nights are cool, and the humidity is high; a lot of slender, white mushrooms can appear. These particular mushrooms only appear in a new yard for the first couple of years and indicate the yard is healthy, if a bit over watered. These mushrooms have a medium length stem and a cone-shaped head. They are not edible. Keep the kids and pets away. These don't last very long after the sun comes up. If you want them to go away faster, drag a garden hose over the yard. This will break them off so they will dry up and disappear faster.
