Default Composting Grass Cuttings ??

What does the panel think about leaving cuttings (short) on the lawn?
It's usually very much one way or the other.


Hardly the "panel" - but we're thrilled with our mulching mower. We also
have a regular one to collect clippings early in the Spring, with the
leaves in Autumn, and when things get out of hand (often!), but normally
the clippings are chopped the size of dust and just disappear - and the
grass looks healthy. The best thing: mowing takes literally half the
time and is infinitely easier without having to empty the heavy bag!
