What is Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding is quickly
becoming the chosen method to establish a lush green lawn
Here's how it works.
Grass seed, fertilizer and hydro mulch are mixed into a thick slurry which is evenly sprayed onto your prepared soil.
Once your lawn has been hydroseeded, the grass seed and fertilizer are protected by an attractive green layer of hydro mulch that seals in moisture and prevents rain from eroding the soil and washing away the seeds even on steep banks. Because the seed was soaked with water in the mix, much faster germination will occur.
Hydroseeding allows you to have a lush, emerald green lawn in days. It is grown in place to your soil conditions. There is never a problem with it not "taking" which can be a problem with sod.

Hydroseeding Advantages
Cost
Hydroseeding typically costs less than 1/4 the price of sod. Sod can be expensive, especially when and when labor is factored in. Hydroseeding requires less installation time and less material, which means you can have a healthy lawn for a fraction of the cost. Hydroseeding costs 2 to 4 times more than conventional broadcast or drill seeding. But one needs to remember that hydroseeding includes mulch to protect the seed, fertilizer, and tackifying agents to reduce the likelihood of erosion. Conventional seeding often requires two or three sowings before a lawn is successfully established. Hydroseeding is often a better value than broadcast or drill seeding.
Quality
Hydroseeding results in much healthier grass because the root system develops in the soil from seed. Sod has to be transplanted and often experiences shock in foreign soil. Additionally, site-specific seed can be used in the mix, including native grasses, drought tolerant mixes, or "front lawn" blends. This means you get a “custom lawn” instead of whatever the sod farm happens to be growing in a given year. Hydroseeding provides a specially formulated growing medium resulting in fast germinating, healthy grass. And it is because of this same growing medium that hydroseeded grass has a significantly higher germination rate than grass seeded by traditional methods.
Erosion Control
Hydroseeding is the only method of turf establishment that effectively retains moisture and protects from adverse weather conditions. This is due to the ingredients of the slurry. Unlike conventional seeding and sod, hydroseeding has less rigorous watering demands, is more tolerant of drought and wind, and better withstands conditions that lead to washout. Hydroseeding provides the ideal environment for germination and erosion control. For areas where there is significant slope and risk of erosion, special additional tackifying agents can be added to the slurry to give results equivalent to erosion control matting.
Application
Hydroseeding can be applied easily to slopes and wet, frozen, or bumpy soil and areas that may be inaccessible by conventional means. This means that the window for establishing grass is greatly extended past that of placing sod or seeding by traditional methods
