How it Works for You and the Environment
Grasscycling is the natural recycling of grass by leaving clippings on the lawn when mowing. If you use a mulching mower, the clippings stay in the chamber longer and are cut and recut before falling back to the soil. The clippings decompose returning valuable nutrients back to the soil.

• Cut the lawn dry. This prevents grass clippings from clumping in piles on the lawn.
• The secret to successful grasscycling is to cut the lawn often to keep the grass short. Short clippings decompose quickly and will not cover the grass surface.
• Grasscycling slows evaporation from the soil surface, enhancing the lawn’s drought tolerance and conserving water.
• Short grass clippings left on the lawn do not cause thatch buildup.
• Grasscycling helps reduce fertilizer and water usage, reducing runoff that can lead to surface and groundwater pollution.
• Prolonged wet weather or infrequent mowing may prevent proper grasscycling. Clippings may be added to the compost pile, or used as mulch around trees, flowerbeds, and shrubs.
