Frequent mowing will produce shorter clippings that will fall to the ground and decompose quickly. When appropriate, the mower collection bag can be removed allowing clippings to drop on the lawn. If your mower does not have a safety flap covering the opening where the bag fits into the chute, contact your local retailer to purchase a retrofit kit. Mulching Mowers Mulching mowers are very effective in grasscycling because they cut grass blades into small pieces that fall back into the soil. If you are considering the purchase of a new mower, check the line of mulching mowers.
Most manufacturers offer a wide range of mulching mowers.
You may also retrofit your existing mower. A mulching conversion kit usually includes a replacement mulching blade and an attachment to cover the side or rear discharge door. Mulching conversion kits are available for most lawn mowers. Check with your mower manufacturer, a local mower specialty store or your neighborhood hardware retailer for further information. The key to successful grasscycling is to leave shorter clippings on the lawn.
