Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding is an affordable lawn installation process. Planting grass seed by hand is time-consuming and sodding your lawn can be expensive. J & C Sod Farm Ltd offers innovative hydroseeding solutions for commercial landscapes. Learn more about hydroseeding and why it’s the best choice for a healthier lawn.
What Is Hydroseeding and How Does it Work?
Hydroseeding, also known as hydro mulching, is a seed sowing process that has grown in popularity since the 1950’s. The process begins by mixing together grass seed, fertilizer, hydroseeding mulch and water. Hydroseeding companies can add dyes to the slurry for an instant green look that shifts to fresh grass in as little as a week. For sloped areas, we’ll also add tacking agents to resist erosion.
Hydroseeding contractors then spray the slurry from a tank using a hose. This allows J & C Sod Farm Ltd to provide an even coverage over a vast amount of land in a fraction of the time it would take to install sod or sow grass by hand. The water and mulch in the slurry creates the ideal environment for rapid seed germination, no matter the underlying soil. Hydroseeding mulch has excellent water-retention properties. It also releases nutrients for the grass as it decomposes.
Which Industries Benefit from Hydro Grass?
All of them! Hydroseeding is ideal for most commercial lawn creation projects. Even larger residential properties enjoy this easy process. Hydroseeding isn't only a cost-effective option, it also results in healthier grass. Unlike hand-planted grass seed, hydroseeding can instantly withstand foot traffic. It's the number one lawn choice for golf courses, parks and sports fields.
Since hydro grass comes with its own nutrients in the mulch, it’s the ideal planting solutions for barren stretches of land or territories that have been affected by natural disaster. Add greenery to hills and other hard-to-plant areas with hydroseeding today!
What’s the Average Cost of Hydroseeding?
The average cost of hydroseeding depends on two main factors. The first is the price of hydromulch and grass seeds. As with sown lawns or hand sodded, different types of grass carry different price tags.
The other, more considerable factor, is the square footage of the land you need to seed. The hydroseeding cost per square foot decreases for larger surface areas. This makes it ideal for commercial properties and land reclamation projects.
