Hydroseeding



Here are a few pictures of the Hydroseeding process. In continuing to minimize our pine straw footprint, the incorporation of native beds is a must. The seed chosen was mixture of Little Bluestem, Love Grass, Switch grass and Indian Grass. These combinations of grasses are warm season, drought tolerant and require little maintenance. The stand of grass will be between 2 and 3 feet tall, which will provide definition between the Bermuda grass rough. The benefit of Hydroseeding to Dry Seeding is in the quality of germination. We expect a germination rate greater than 90%, we previously saw a percentage of around 40-50% through Dry Seeding. As the native areas germinate, please provide feed back.
