Yea ... that stuff really works. But there are 2 considerations one needs to think of.
1. You are never sure of the exact NPK being applied to the plants and where there or not enough was applied when using compost or grass clippings. Commercial bagged manure usually will state the NPK contained therein.
2. If using grass clippings and applying to plants else where (flower beds, banana mats), then eventually one has to apply fertilizer or manure to his yard to make up for the NPK being removed.
But yes .... when one fertilizes the yard each year, then reusing the grass clippings else where is like getting a 2nd use of the fertilizer already bought.
