Hydroseeding

Hydroseeding
is a simple process that combines seed, fertilizer, mulch and water. This
slurry is pressure sprayed on a soil surface to provide a cohesive mat which
protects the seed and soil. It also provides a micro climate for maximum
germination. |

The
different types of mulch are:
- VERDYOL
MULCH - this is made from sun-dried plant fibres (straw), cellulose-pulp
(paper) and cotton. This mulch creates a natural, non-toxic, protected
environment for erosion control and seed protection for nutrient deficient
soils, steep slopes and subsoils.
- FIBRAMULCH
- this is a wood cellulose (paper) mulch which is dyed green. It is
highly water absorbent and is used successfully wherever turf growth
is required.

Brillion
seeding is the process of mechanically embedding the seed into the topsoil.
It is usually done on larger, high-end projects to achieve a more consistent
germination. Examples of projects where brillion seeding is used are golf
courses, sports fields, parks and large residential lots. This process may
be done with or without mulching. |
