Lawn Clippings
! THE problem of whether to leave grass mowings on the lawn after cutting, or to collect them in the grass catcher, often arises. If the grass is thin and the weather hot, it is better to leave the mowings on the surface: they will provide the grass roots with muclfneeded food material. On the other hand, lawn mowings are useful for mulching and a quantity should be saved for this purpose. It is a good plan therefore to detach the grass catcher when cutting the lawn on some occasions and at other times to collect the mowings for mulchings
