Hydroseeding is a fast, cost effecive way to have a new lawn that will
turn your neighbors green with envy. It is quickly becoming the chosen method to establish a lush green lawn.
How it Works -
Grass seed, fertilizer and hydromulch are mixed into a thick slurry which is evenly sprayed onto your prepared soil. Once your lawn has been hydroseeded, the grass seed and fertilizer are protected by an attractive green layer of hydro mulch that seals in moisture and prevents rain from eroding the soil and washing away the seeds even on steep banks. Because the seed was soaked with water in the mix, much faster germination will occur.
Hydroseeding allows you to have a lush, emerald green lawn in days. it is grown in place to your soil conditions. There is never a problem with it not "taking" which can be a problem with sod.
CARE / MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a Hydroseeded Lawn
We will use a tested, high quality, certified turf mix. Germination time depends on weather conditions, temperature and the amount of watering. Usually grass will be visible in 5-7 days, a few days slower in cold weather.
Care and Watering
Successful seed germination depends on a few days of special care. To assure proper germination, water regularly. Two times a day in warm weather is recommended. Keeping the yard moist will maximize seed germination. you may walk on the surface when watering, being careful not to disturb the mulch mat. By keeping your new seedlings from drying out, you insure the beginning of a lawn that will make your neighbors green with envy.
Mowing
Mow the grass approximately 3 weeks after seeding. Mowing stimulates growth and thickness. Set the mower high at first then gradually lower. Try to never cut more then 1/3 of the total grass blade length at a time. Keep blades sharpened, as dull blades will pull out seedlings. First mowing should be when grass reaches about 3".
