Periods of prolonged rains, wet weather, a minimum number of sunny days, as well as temperature differences characteristic of the UK, create ideal conditions for the spread of fungal diseases of the soil. If you have mushrooms in lawn, then this speaks not only about the fertile soil, but also about changes in the soil that are not useful for your plants. These changes should not be ignored.
The problem of fungal diseases of the soil has an individual solution, which should be made based on the results of the analysis of the current state of the soil. But a one-time solution to the problem will be meaningless, because it will not lead to complete elimination of fungi in the soil. It is necessary to approach this problem comprehensively in order to eliminate it.
