Any gardening experts out there?
We've just had our garden front and back ripped out and entirely landscaped. A good job done overall at a cost of about ten grand so not cheap.
As part of that, we've had a new back lawn. We've followed the instructions the gardener left us to water daily on days where it doesn't rain, stay off of it for two weeks and not cut for three.
Anyway. Did the first cut last week and it is full of bloody mushrooms or toadstools. I mean they're absolutely everywhere. I rang the gardener about it and he said it's just because we've been watering it and they'll go away. Second cut done today, grass is full of them.
Do I need to ask for the grass to be replaced? We've paid for a new lawn, surely this shouldn't happen? I've got a two year old so I'm going to need to check the grass every time she goes it to play otherwise, I certainly don't want her eating them. The whole point of if having the garden done was for her to have a lovely, safe place to play. I'm also eight months pregnant and can't be doing with all the bending and kneeling to pull them up every time I go of there! It's a big lawn.
AIBU? Prepared to be told that I am, as my username says I am a gardening numpty but at the same time I don't expect to pay for something that I can't use without going through it first to clear it every time. They are gross!
