No, Headway G Fungicide Granules will not effect mushrooms. Generally speaking when mushrooms are present it's because you have too much moisture in your lawn and you need to dry it out. Avoid watering your turf if you are on a watering schedule. You may need to remove the mushrooms by hand, but to keep them from coming back you need to dry out the soil. You will need to do a core aeration in your lawn and we would recommend cutting back limbs that may be causing too much shade over your lawn.
We are not aware of any products to treat for mushrooms in lawns. You may contact your local cooperative extension office and get the mushroom identified and the master gardener on staff should be able to tell you what will work to eliminate the type of mushroom you are dealing with.
You normally apply a fungicide like Headway before signs of the disease common to occur in your lawns starts to be present as long as the ground is not frozen. If you typically get a disease in the lawn every may, for example, then you would want to put down the headway a few weeks before the time it normally presents itself in your lawn, and continue reapplying at the appropriate intervals per the product label for that disease to keep it at bay. You may also want to consult your Master Gardener for the appropriate application time in your area.
There are not time restrictions between a pre-emergent and fungicide like Headway G Fungicide Granules application.

Yes, the Headway G Fungicide Granules bag is vacuum-sealed closed. When you open the bag, the seal will be released and the granules will be loose.
Unfortunately, we do not have the spreader settings for that specific combo, and since the manufacturer does not list that spreader on their bag we are unsure what the exact setting would be. Due to the thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, there isn't a master list that exists. You may want to try calling the manufacturer of your spreader or the chemical itself directly, to see if anyone on their staff has that info. Otherwise, you will want to calibrate your spreader to the product you are using and its application rates. You can see a short video on how to accomplish this below.
