Star HydroseedingLocated in Star Valley Wyoming
A Hydro-Seeded lawn can be installed during any part of the growing season. A lawn hydro-seeded by Star Hydroseeding:
- Provides an insulating blanket to protect tender seed from extreme temperature fluctuations
- Resists soil erosion by water and wind
- Slowly breaks down after turf is established supplying valuable organic material to the soil
- Nourishes seedlings, which results in a higher germination rate
What is Hydro-Seeding?Hydro-Seeding is a process where seed, water, fertilizer, and a fiber mulch are mixed together and sprayed into and over the ground. The soft, green mat that covers our lawn is a cellulose fiber that performs these functions:- Water retention: The fiber mulch can retain up to 11 times its water, so seeds are kept moist. The results are quicker and thicker grass stand.
- Soil retention: The fiber mulch helps prevent wind and water erosion.
- Protection: The fiber mulch protects young seeds from the scorching sun and maintains soil temperature. It forms an almost perfect environment for maximum germination.
Preparing Your Lawn For Hydro-Seeding- Fill low spots and grade to approximate level.
- May addpeat moss or well rotted manure if desired.
- Rough spade or rototill the area to be planted.
- Rake, roll and level until the surface is smooth. Dragging an upside down pallet behind a four-wheeler or riding mower gives surprising results.
The First 14 Days are Important Keep the lawn moist at all times for the first two weeks, preferably by light sprinklings 3 or 4 times per day. However, if this is not possible, soak your lawn for 30 minutes, or until run-off is detected. This watering process should be repeated twice a day (early morning and evening), and at least one light watering around midday. After the first two weeks water every other day until the first cutting. Don't let the lawn dry out. If the germinating seedlings dry out, they will die. Windy days or extremely hot days may require more frequent watering.
