Mulching mowers dis- charge grass clippings differently than conven- tional lawn mowers by using a special mulching blade that recycles the grass clippings to the lawn through a continu- ous cut and re-cutting motion. This process eventually drops the finely cut clippings back into the lawn. Mulching is good for your lawn because it helps provide the soil with increased ground cover to hold moisture and it acts as a fertilizer. Clippings can contain up to 80 per cent water and 5 per cent nitrogen that can continuously fertil- ize your lawn. Mulching also ° eliminates the headache of bagging or raking the clippings. ~ Proper mulching requires that the grass is dry and not overly long. Cut only the top half to three-quarters of an inch of the grass blade. This FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 2001 Ly provides short clippings which decompose prop- erly and much more quickly than longer clip- pings. Use full engine throttle combined with a slow ground speed to ensure that clippings will be finely cut. The ideal ground speed is usually half the speed when side discharging or bagging. Since mulching requires more horsepower than dis- charging, using a slower ground speed is vitally important for proper mulching operation. Under proper condi- tions, a mulching mower 'will virtually eliminate noticeable clippings on the lawn surface. Try mulching this sea- son for a better, healthi- er lawn.
