Yes. Lightning provides the intense energy needed to combine atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen into nitrates. The rain then carries these nitrates down to the earth's surface enriching the soil. Acting as a fertilizer, nitrates in an indirect way helps make the grass green.

Lightning does not have nitrogen in it- but it DOES change the form of the nitrogen in the air (which plants cannot use) to a form that they CAN use.

What happens if you get too little of nitrogen?

Humans do not require nitrogen, generally. But nitrogen in the atmosphere is important to modify oxygen in the atmosphere. In the context of "too little" nitrogen in the atmosphere, the result can cause the ignition of almost every combustible on Earth, needing only a lightning strike to trigger it! Worse for humanity, if nitrogen in the atmosphere dropped from its present (approx. 78%) ratio down to 67%, lightning in the atmosphere would create nitrous oxide, killing all humanity in minutes! Not to worry, though, long before that happened, the first calamity would already have occurred! But feel better - The most common usage of "too little" nitrogen is regarding soil. Too little nitrogen can turn green lawns into yellow. Nitrogen is the most important element in soil fertility, and is basic to chlorophyll, necessary for foliage (including trees) to create oxygen for us all.

Can a dull mower blade cause your grass to turn yellow?

A dull mower blade will "tear" the grass instead of "cut" it. The jagged blades of grass will dry up and cause your lawn to look brownish or even yellowish - much like when cut grass clippings turn from green to brown/yellow as they dry up.
