To Bag- or not to bag?

"Jos. Wheeler" joe@csa wrote in message ... I've got a well established 31 tall fescue lawn growing in Atlanta's hot clay soil (nicest one in the neighborhood, actually). I've always used the grass catcher on my mower but I'm getting tired of emptying the bag all the time. If I just let the clippings spray out onto the lawn, would I get thatch build-up--- or would the clipping just disintegrate? And how bad is thatch anyhow? Jos. Thanks for the suggestions-- and the humorous tit for tat... Take about a two-inch deep plug out of your turf and examine the thatch layer. If it's only about 1/2" thick, you'll be fine with regular, proper mowing. My apologies if my choice of wording steered you wrong. There really is no simple, absolute answer. There are a number of variables to be considered. HTH HAND -- Eggs Can atheists get insurance for acts of God? |
