Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential benefits of leaves and clippings decomposing naturally on lawns. Explains the process that was implemented at Echelon Landscape Maintenance, noting that they leave and mulch the grass clippings, and the excess clumps and residue are bagged and taken to be composted. States that customers are beginning to trend towards the more natural approach of leaving the clippings. Mentions that some mowers have a "cutting feature allows for having less visible clippings and faster decomposition from shredding." |
