HYDRO-SEEDING

Broadcast seeding requires time, persistence, hard work and, often… re-seeding. Heavy rain can wash away your seed; a flock of birds can stop by for lunch; and sun and heat can quickly cook young seedlings. Sodding is the fastest way to a beautiful lawn, but also the most expensive method.

Hydro-seeding is a less expensive approach that’s more effective than traditional seeding in most applications. So, how does it work? Our truck-mounted Hydro-seeding unit precisely blends seed, recycled wood fibers, fertilizer, binding agents and water to form a homogeneous slurry. This mixture is then sprayed on to your lawn with a high pressure hose, much like a fire hose. The wood fibers and binding agents in the slurry attach themselves to the prepared soil and lock the seed and fiber into a network that retains moisture, sustains grass seedlings during dry spells and acts as a deflector of wind, rain and pests. A hydroseeded lawn also typically germinates more rapidly than a drill seeded lawn because of the slurry's ability to lock in the moisture. The Hydro-seeding mixture stabilizes the soil and eventually decomposes after the grass has grown to a mowable height.
