Hydroseeding is often used to economically seed large areas of lawns, especially on commercial projects. This grass planting process is fast, economical, and efficient and is used for a wide variety of applications. Depending on watering and/or rainfall frequencies a properly hydroseeded area usually will show results in as little as three days, and can be fully established in three weeks or less.
What are the benefits of hydroseeding with Finn hydroseeders? Finn hydroseeded ground starts growing grass from the root first allowing the root system to go deep in the ground where moisture is at it's greatest, making a very drought tolerant lawn. Comparatively, sod that is already established is forced to grow leaf stock while trying to establish a root system, making a solid sodden yard very weak in drought type condition.
