Mulching Lawn Mowers – Environmentally Sound
To maintain health and vigor, lawns need to be regularly fertilized. Did you
know that the grass clipping that many people rake up are the ideal lawn
fertilizer? By returning the clippings to the lawn, you reduce the need for
other types of fertilizers. Mulching lawn mowers are designed to do just that.
Mulching lawn mowers have special blades that finely chop up the grass clippings
before returning them to the soil. Chopping the clippings has two advantages –
the lawn can break them down easier and the lawn has a more attractive
appearance.
Many mowers are specially designed as mulching lawn mowers. They have mulching
blades installed at the factory. Other models have optional mulching blades that
can be installed after purchase.
Some models have a selectable discharge system. With the simple flick of a
lever, the lawn mower can be switched from a side discharge mower, to a rear
discharge mower, to a mulching mower. These models are ideal for commercial lawn
contractors who have to serve the needs of many different clients. Some clients
may want all the clippings picked up, while others prefer the benefits of
mulching lawn mowers.
Electric lawn mowers can also be fitted with mulching blades. Traditionally,
electric mowers were strictly discharge mowers because of the extra power needed
to mulch the clippings, but recent advances in battery technology allows the
advantages of mulching lawn mowers to be enjoyed by electric lawn mower owners.
Riding mowers can also have mulching blades fitted to their cutting decks. These
powerful machines make ideal mulching lawn mowers because they can efficiently
cut the clippings very finely.
Many municipalities have outlawed the dumping of grass clippings in landfill
sites, making mulching lawn mowers a necessity. There are so many advantages to
mulching that there is really no reason not to have a mulching lawn mower. It is
good for your lawn, saves on fertilizer costs, ecologically sound and labor
saving. Very good reasons to get a mulching lawn mower for your lawn!
