Mulching
„Mulching" is a process in which the grass is finely chop-
ped by a special cutting system and then deposited on the
ground. The result is that the grass does not have to be
collected and disposed of. „Mulching" also prevents the lawn
from drying out.
Note:
• Depending on how fast the grass grows, you should mulch
1-2 times each week.
• The grass should not be too high or very wet!
• Walk slowly.
• When cutting, the strips should overlap.
• Do not cut more than 20 cm of grass at a time.
Important!
„Mulching" is not recommended if the lawn is mossy or
matted.
Reason:
The cut grass remains on top fo the moss or matted grass
and cannot reach the ground below.
Remedy:
The lawn should be aerated and fertilized regularly.
