Should I remove clippings?
The only time clippings should be removed is when the grass is totally covered with clipping after mowing. If you can see the grass blades sticking up through the clippings, you should leave the clippings. The clippings act as a natural fertilizer for the grass plants. Properly mown grass clippings do not contribute to thatch (see next question).
