Lawn-Sodding and Installation

Proper soil preparation is crucial to the final results of your hydroseed and new lawn installation.

Sure, hydroseed can technically grow "anywhere", but to get it to grow into a thick, lush, emerald green lawn that is the envy of the neighborhood is the goal.

The existing root system should be removed from the area to be seeded via rototiller, Harley rake, power rake, Bobcat etc.

This is the perfect time to fill any low spots or dips in your yard.

Any drainage or pitch issues should be addressed at this time.

WATERING INSTRUCTIONS:

New hydroseed should be watered 3 times per day for approximately 10-20 minutes per watering cycle.

The ideal times are 4:00AM, 11:00AM, and 4:00PM. (Do not water after dark)

You may adjust the watering slightly for seasonal changes at your discretion, i.e. increase for the hot summer months or decrease for the cooler fall months.

The hydroseed needs to remain moist in order to germinate properly. The soil does not need to be constantly sopping wet.

DO NOT create pools of water on your lawn; just keep the seed consistently damp & moist. The dye will fade in 1-5 days, this is normal and not “washout”.

After 4-6 weeks you may begin to scale back the watering at your discretion.
