12.4 Mulching

During mulching, the cut grass is chopped up several times
through a special air flow guidance system in the mower
blade area and then blown back into the turf. The clippings
remain on the lawn surface where they partially decompose
and serve as a natural fertiliser. To ensure a perfect, thick
lawn, mulch regularly, removing 1/3 of the grass height.
Requirements for good mulching results:
– Frequency: at least twice a week in the spring (main
period of growth) and once a week in the summer and
autumn.
– Cutting height: cut around a third of the grass height.
– Mow the lawn when dry if possible.
– Use well sharpened cutting blades.
– Select a low rate of feed.
– Vary the mowing direction and ensure that the mowing
strips overlap.
