What are the benefits of a mulching mower?
A. Mulching mowers chop grass into small clippings, allowing them to sift down to ground level. The benefits are many. The clippings serve as a cushion for tender crowns (the grass’ growth zones), insulate the turf from extreme temperatures, and help retain needed moisture, giving you a healthier lawn. The clippings decompose over time, slowly releasing the nutrients your lawn needs. You’ll save time, because you won’t have to stop to empty the mower bag and don’t need to fertilize as often. In addition, you’ll save money on both water and fertilizer costs.
