I recently purchased a John Deere GT225 with a 42" deck with mulching blades. For some reason it clumps the grass clippings naer the center of the cut path. I have leveled and pitched the deck to specs and have tryed mowing slower and or higher with no success. The only way I have found that works is to raise the deck 1" higher after I have mowed and go over the entire lawn again. Not good!! Anyone have the answer.

If you are cutting more than 1/3 of the grass height you are cutting to much and letting grow too tall before cutting. Best not to cut more than 1/4 of the grass height. I get the same thing with my F525 if I let the grass go to long before cutting. Trying cutting it more often and cutting the top 25% off the top and see how your results are. ....

Often when overwhelmed the rear discharge or mulcher decks leave a small windrow behind each blade width of the deck. ....
