Grow In Instructions

 

Let mulch dry for 24 hours after application so the glue can adhere to the soil properly.

After the first 24 hours your lawn MUST be kept moist. For the first 7-10 days, water the seeded

areas 3-5 times per day. Do not allow water to puddle.

After this 10 day period, you must continue to water once or twice a day because the seeds will

continue to germinate.

Even when the lawn is established, it is still  important to keep a consistent watering schedule

based on the current weather conditions.

 

Generally 4 weeks after hydro seeding, your lawn should be fertilized. We recommend using a 10-10-10

or starter fertilizer, making sure that the Nitrogen levels are not too high. Fertilizing will help to fill in any

sparse areas you may have.

It is normal for weed seeds that were in the soil prior to hydro-seeding to terminate and grow faster than

the new grass. As soon as any weeds are 3" tall, begin mowing them. Doing this will stunt the growth of

weeds and allow your new lawn to over take the weeds. Use a grass catcher to eliminate the possibility

of prevent spreading the weed seeds

 

DO NOT USE ANY WEED CONTROL PRODUCTS FOR THE FIRST 90 DAYS

 

Your new lawn will be ready to be mowed between 4-6 weeks after application. When over 50% of the

lawn reaches a height of 3"-3.5", use a sharp bladed mower set at about 2.5 in cutting height. Be sure

not to cut more than 1/3 of the grass blade off at each mowing.

Bare areas are usually caused from the seed drying out too  much or being flooded and washed away.

These areas will need to be reseeded to promote growth.
