RE: (ET) Mulching

["David Roden" <roden ald net>]

Maybe it's just me (or my experiences), but I'm not enthusiastic about 
mulching mowers.  I don't think they're compatible with my mowing habits 
("don't cut more than one-third of the grass's length"?  Yeah, right!).  
My push mower, a Black & Decker MM-450, is supposed to be a convertible, 
but I've found that it just can't handle the grass load when it's set up 
to mulch.

I suspect that it takes a pretty sophisticated design, a lot of power, 
and the willingness to cut the grass more frequently than I want to, to 
make mulching work well.  I don't think that my ET has either of the 
first two in its deck (maybe yours does), and I know I don't have the 
third in me (maybe you do).

Just my 2 pfennigs' worth.
