advantages of hydroseeding
Why Choose Hydroseed?
Quality & Coverage
Compared to sodding or hand seeding, hydroseeding produces a thicker and more uniform lawn that creates an optimal growing environment with interlocking fibers, eliminating the risk of visible seams or patchy areas. The resulting lawn is of higher quality, with a healthier, greener, and longer-lasting appearance. Additionally, hydroseeded lawns benefit from deeper root establishment, avoiding the shock that comes with transplanting into foreign soils.
Time
While hydroseeding may not provide immediate lawn gratification, the benefits of cost, quality, coverage, erosion control, and lawn health make it a superior choice. Compared to sodding, hydroseeding is a faster and easier installation process that saves on labor costs. Choose hydroseeding for a hassle-free and cost-effective way to achieve a high-quality lawn.
Erosion Control
Hydroseeding is primarily used for erosion control in commercial settings. By combining seed, mulch, tackifiers, and other soil conditioners in a slurry, hydroseeding helps to retain moisture and protect against soil loss from environmental factors such as wind, rain, sun, and pests. The resulting binding with the surface soil helps to provide effective erosion control.
Water Retention
Hydroseeding has demonstrated superior ability to promote quick, healthy germination, high plant survival, and seed protection through its unique capacity to retain up to 10 times its weight in water. This advantage in water retention is not found in any other grass-growing method.
