Default Grass Clippings As Mulch

My wife uses the clippings as mulch on her vegetable and flower

I love grass clippings as mulch. They don't last terribly long,
but they matt down well. I don't bag clippings anymore, and miss
it.

The only bad experience I've had was mulching grass family crops,
like corn. It may have been a coincidence, but I had problems with
corn smut when I did that.
