Hydroseeding

Hydroseeding is an application process in which seed, fertilizer, mulch and water are mixed together and applied over prepared soil. The seed coverage is thick and consistent. It’s also more resistant to disease and requires less watering than other types of turf installation. In addition, the chances of erosion with hydro-seeding are less likely than with normal seeding. In New York, the planting season can occur from April to October. Learn more about the hydroseeding process below, and contact us with any questions or to request a quote.

Mulch with Tactifier (bonding glue)

Composed of weed-free recycled cellulose and wood fibers

Retains up to 10 times its weight in water

Provides an “insulated blanket” to protect seeds from fluctuating temperatures and scorching sun

Forms a perfect environment for maximum germination

As the lawn is established, mulch fibers decompose and add nourishment to the young plant
