Description:

When it comes to yard work, you can actually do "more" for a healthy lawn with "less." Leaving grass clippings on the lawn instead of bagging them will help you use less fertilizer, use less water and waste less time taking care of the yard. Grass clippings are 80% wter, and help return nutrients to the soil. This video provides information on grass watering, as well as tips for selecting and using your mower and fertilizer to have a healthy, sustainable lawn.
