Bare, exposed dirt is one of those problems that only gets worse over time. Rain washes it out. Wind dries it up. And before long you've got erosion, runoff, and a mess that's a lot harder to fix than it would have been to prevent. That's exactly the kind of situation hydroseeding is built for.

Here's how it works. We mix seed, water, fertilizer, and a wood fiber mulch - called a slurry - and spray it evenly across the bare ground. That mulch layer holds everything in place. It keeps moisture in contact with the seed, protects against washout, and breaks down naturally as the grass takes root. It's faster than hand seeding and a lot more consistent across large areas.

The white fibrous layer you see here is that mulch doing its job. Grass is already poking through in spots, which tells you the germination process is underway. That's the whole goal - get seed established quickly before the ground has a chance to erode or crust over.

Hydroseeding works well in a lot of situations around Mondovi and the surrounding area - new construction lots, road ditches, field edges, disturbed soil from utility work, you name it. If there's open ground that needs cover, this method gets it done efficiently and at a lower cost than sod.

Every job is a little different depending on soil conditions, slope, and what kind of grass or ground cover is needed. We dial in the mix accordingly. The result is solid, even coverage that gives the seed the best possible chance to take hold and grow.
