ROBOTIC LAWNMOWER TERMS & CONDITIONS

Mulching

​

Robot lawn mowers do not collect your grass clippings. Instead, they mulch the clippings and return them to the lawn. As robot lawn mowers are designed to cut your lawn very frequently, the clippings are very fine and fall into the lawn and onto the ground, rather than clumping together and sitting on top of it. This means that the clippings will generally not be seen, and your lawn will look tidy. 

Mulching your clippings is a positive thing for several reasons.

 

• You will not have to collect the clippings.

• Mulching means that the nutrients that are in the clippings are returned to the soil. Once the clippings start to break down, the nutrients then become available for the growing grass to use. This means that you will have to fertilise your grass much less frequently, maybe twice per year, once in the spring and once in the autumn. Not only does this make caring for my lawn easier, but it saves me a fair bit of money that would be spent on fertilizer.

• Your lawn will look better. Mulching your clippings makes your lawn look better for several reasons. you are not removing any nutrients from the soil with a robot lawn mower, the growing grass has more available nutrients, so will be greener and more vibrant. As robot lawn mowers work more frequently, ensuring that the clippings do not clump up on top of the lawn, your grass will always look freshly cut.
