HYDRO SEEDING INFORMATION

Hydroseeding can be the fastest way to plant a lush green lawn. It is also a great way of planting wild flowers, crown vetch, native grasses, for soil stabilization projects, re-vegetation, erosion control and lots more.

Hydroseeding is a fast, cost effective way to have a new lawn that will turn your neighbors green with envy. Hydroseeding costs only a little more than old fashioned methods using dry seeding techniques combined with a messy straw mulch. The cost to have your new lawn hydroseeded is less than 1/4 the cost of using sod, and in a few weeks you will have a better appearing lawn with no need to worry if the sod will take. Germination time will depend on the weather, the time of year, the amount of water, the area you live in and other factors. Usually grass will be visible in 5-7 days, a few days slower in cold weather or the hottest part of summer.

You will be surprised how inexpensive it is to have a truly outstanding lawn. These are all factory trained professionals who are seeding experts and will help you to grow a beautiful, lush lawn. Your new lawn will be sprayed on. The protective mulch covering has an attractive green appearance. A special blend of seeds will be used that will be chosen for the conditions and requirements you have. The factors that may go into the choice may be the amount of sun, shade, the terrain, the type of soil and if you have children or pets.

ADVANTAGES OF HYDROSEEDING OVER DRY SEEDING

Hydroseeded lawns come up faster. The contact of the seed with water will trigger the germination cycle. We often hear of grass up in 3 to 5 days. Hydro seeding has an attractive green appearance that looks far better than lawns dry seeded and covered with straw mulch. Unlike straw that is often used as a protective cover for a newly seeded area, hydroseeding mulch has NO weed seed. Straw is loaded with weed seed. Hydroseeding allows the custom tailoring of the proper seed for your job. It is not uncommon to use two or even three seeds custom spraying the right seed for different areas on the lawn or job. Many custom hydroseeding contractors will use one seed for shady areas, one for high traffic areas, one to make the front lawn a showpiece. Hydro Seeding mulch adds to the humus content of a lawn as it decomposes. The bacterial action of straw will leach nitrogen from the soil as it decomposes.

ADVANTAGES OF HYDROSEEDING OVER SOD

Sod is a good solution to the need for a new lawn. It is expensive. Sod generally costs 3 to 5 times more than hydroseeding. Hydroseeding will often produce turf as nice looking as sod within a very short time at a significant cost savings. With hydroseeding the new seedlings are grown on your soil. Sod can have a problem with the type of soil it was grown on, not having sufficient compatibility with the soil it is planted on. This is called 'not taking'. With hydroseeding there is no worry about whether the new lawn will take. The seed is custom blended for your soil and conditions. Hydroseeding is the smart choice for a beautiful, cost-effective lawn.
