what causes little toadstool like spores to grow in my grass...?

Answer 1

Spores are microscopic. I think you mean the fruiting body or the mushroom proper. Mycelium is growing in the earth, when a spore falls on the mycelium it can produce a mushroom. It is essentially similar to the "root structure" of a plant. You have mycelium in your lawn, and that is why you have mushrooms growing there.

Answer 2

How do you know there toadstools? 'cos there's not mushroom for grass.

Spores are blown in on the wind and grow well in shaded damp areas, and will spread. Either try giving the area more sunlight, or buy a treatment from a garden centre.

Answer 3

poor drainage, poor soil, nitrogen deficiency,
or you could just have a good old fashioned
"fairy ring campignion"
small brown droopy looking toadstools, that grow in yearly increasing circles, with very rich green grass in the centre, and yellowish grass on the outside of the circle, look it up on the net, if this sounds familiar....

Answer 4

Toadstools and their kin are particularly fond of decaying organic material and moist conditions. The decaying organic materials that they like best are wood, leaves, and composts. The deciding factor that's probably contributing to your mushroomy lawn is probably the moisture factor, though. Do you water often?....if so, you might hold back on the water a bit if your lawn is o.k. with that. That ought to cut back the fungus among us. :o)
