What is Hydro-seeding?

New Lawn Hydroseeding in Gig Harbor WA

Hydroseeding is fast becoming the preferred method for residential lawns, erosion control and re-vegetative ground coverage in Washington State. It is a process where seed, water, fertilizer, mulch, and a holding agent (tackifier) are mixed together and applied through a specialized machine called a hydroseeder or sometimes referred to as a hydromulcher.
The soft green mat that is applied is a paper mulch, a wood  fiber mulch or sometimes a wood /paper combination mulch. This process, when mixed into a slurry, performs the following function:


Water Retention- 
Because the mulch can retain up to ten times it's weight in water, the seeds are kept moist and results in thicker and quicker coverage.

Soil Retention- 
The mulch and holding agent (tackifier) also help prevent wind and water erosion. You get uniform results because slurry is applied under pressure for positive contact with the soil.

Protection-
The mulch protect the seeds from the sun, rain, birds and helps maintain a desired soil temperature. The slurry forms an almost perfect micro-climate for the new seed to germinate rapidly and grow into a lush new lawn.

Hydroseeding can be utilized on steep slopes where other methods are not possible. When the slurry dries it forms a protective blanket which allows almost 100% seed growth. Hydroseeding can save you more than 75% of the cost of  sod. Hydroseeding can produce turf which is just as nice as sod in a very short period of time.  Call to find out more and see how hydroseeding can work for you.

For a successful hydroseeding application, the slurry is mixed thoroughly and applied at an effective application rate. Our experienced professionals will typically spray about 100 gallons of slurry containing up to 10 pounds of seed, 25 pounds of mulch and 5 pounds of fertilizer for every 1,000 square feet. 

The result is fast, efficient and economical grass growth wherever you need it. After we spray your lawn with hydroseed, your property will have a nice green appearance from the mulch in the spray mix. The grass should begin to come up in 8 to 14 days depending on soil temperatures and moisture. Your lawn should be ready to mow in  3 to 4 weeks.

Hydroseed vs sod

Hydroseeding in Federal Way WA

Creating a luscious, green lawn is the desire of every homeowner. When faced with a barren patch of dirt, it can be hard to imagine creating a lawn you can enjoy for years to come. Let Tacoma Hydroseeding assist you in the creation of a beautiful lawn in a short time.

Hydroseeding requires less labor than sod. Many homeowners consider sod to be the quickest way to create a perfect lawn. However, laying sod is a long, hard process involving hours of hard labor and takes daily watering. In addition to the physical aspects of sod, long-term success of sod is not a guarantee. Sod may allow you to create a green lawn in one day, but many times the sod does not take, especially around the edges. This results in a lawn that looks like it was pieced together, complete with lines and dead spaces. Sod can also be prohibitively expensive.

Hydroseeding is less expensive than sod. Hydroseeding is 75% cheaper than sod if self–installed, and even greater savings when you have sod installed for you. As an added bonus, hydroseeding does not require any hard physical labor for you. The hydroseed mixture is sprayed onto bare ground and when it is kept damp and warm, hydroseed mixtures encourage growth and germination in much less time than hand-seeding a lawn. With the warm summer weather of western Washington, hydroseeding generally creates a brilliant green lawn that will be ready to be mowed in 3 to 4 weeks. Hydroseeding is an economical alternative to sod and traditional seeding. It costs less, is just as effective, and results in a lawn that you can be proud of for years to come.

When you find yourself in need of a new lawn, consider hydroseeding instead of sod or seeding the lawn yourself. You will save time, labor, and money by allowing Tacoma Hydroseeding to assist you in creating a lawn that is grown from seed in the variety you want. We will be happy to answer your questions about hydroseeding, fertilizing, and all of the services we provide. Give us a call and we guarantee you will be satisfied with your new landscape in no time!
