Yes! If your grass clippings are around an inch long, they’re actually good for your lawn. They’ll break down, and as they do, they’ll deliver moisture and nutrients, which are vital to proper lawn care. It’s a process called grass-cycling, and in order to achieve successful grass-cycling, the measurement for grass should be 2 to 3 inches tall after mowing the lawn. If you mow very tall grass, the grass clippings could be too long and form a pile of unpleasant grass hay (Not a good thing). The best method for grass-cycling is mowing the lawn knowing that the clippings will be around one inch long after mowing is completed.
