Hydroseeding

Hydroseeding or hydromulching is a process where mulch is mixed with seed, fertilizer, tacktifier and soil amendments to create a slurry that is sprayed onto bare soil. This process enables seeds to rapidly germinate and grow while the mulch keeps the soil and seed in place (limiting erosion and increasing seedling survival). The largest benefits of hydroseeding are limiting erosion, followed closely by increasing seed germination and accelerated germination.
