Grass Clippings -- Mulch

OHI The editors of Old-House Interiors magazine
Grass clippings, if at all possible, should be allowed to dry before use as a mulch. Fresh clippings may mold, smell and deplete available from the soil, resulting in poor or deficient plant growth.

Grass clippings contain more than 90 percent moisture and will dry in several days.
