How do I grasscycle?
Leave grass clippings on your lawn after mowing. Clippings break down in 7 to 14 days, act as top dressing fertilizer and keep your lawn green and healthy.
Mow often, cutting only one-third of grass growth, and use a sharp blade when conditions are dry.
Water your lawn in the morning, but less frequently and for longer periods of time.
