There is lush grass growing under all of my walnut trees. I am  
guesstimating there are about twenty trees within about two hundred  
feet of the house and gardens. This time of year I have to mow about  
every four days to keep it as I want it. Now, one reason I mow so much  
is to collect clippings, which I have used as mulch for decades. Thus  
far I cannot think of any apparent negativity from that practice.
