How Does it Work?

 A primary benefit of hydroseeded lawns is that the seed blend can be customized for various conditions. We use a drought-tolerant seed blend for our arid Colorado climate

 Sod is composed of a single type of turfgrass. Any time you plant a single variety of plant, or monoculture, there is greater chance for widespread disease than when you plant a blend of multiple types of turf. We use a specialized disease-resistant blend for optimal results.  

 Hydroseeding can establish a great looking lawn at a fraction of the cost of laying sod. The cost of sodding your lawn can run up to four times as much (or more) as hydroseeding, especially for large areas.

 A newly sodded lawn can look very good indeed. However, over time (usually within the first month), the mats of sod have a tendency to shrink, which can create gaps between the individual rows. Great care needs to be taken to avoid this as much care is needed to fix it. With hydroseeding, the entire lawn is sprayed in an even, uniform coating. No gaps, no shrinkage, no clumping, and no additional plantings. Just a beautiful, even distribution of turf for you to enjoy. 

 With sod, the roots of the grass are chopped off. This, too, is a contributing factor in how well the grass will "take". Or not. But even if it does take, that does not mean it is necessarily healthy grass. Hydroseeded areas, on the other hand, work with the time-tested method of germination, where the blade grows up while the roots grow down, embedding in the soil on their own, producing vigorous, hearty grass. 

 Whether your lawn is completely dead or suffers from patchy areas, hydroseeding can be applied directly over the existing turf to generate an evenly blended lawn in a short amount of time. It’s not uncommon to see your new lawn popping up after only five to nine days.
