Grasscycling Tips
Grasscycling, or leaving your mower clippings on the lawn, fertilizes your soil, making your lawn halthier and saving you time in bagging a dragging grass clipppings! Use these tips to get the best results.
- • Mow when the grass is dry, to avoid clumping.
- • Set cutting height up to 2" to 2.5" to hide clippings better, and make a healthier lawn.
- • Remove only 1/3 of grass length, or 1 inch maximum, per mowing.
- • If the grass is very overgrown, mow twice: first at a high setting, then lower.
- • Mow every 5 to 7 days in the spring. (Every 2 weeks may be enough in the summer.) You'll still save time over bagging and dragging clippings to the curb.
- • Water and fertilize less. Remember, every time you Grasscycle, you add free fertilizer to your lawn.
- • Sharpen mower blades twice a year.
