Hydroseeding

Want a lawn with higher water retention than that of sod for half the price of sod? You should look into hydroseeding. Hydroseeding is a technique of lawn seeding that uses a process, which utilizes slurry of seed and mulch and sprayed over the ground in a uniform layer. It's a far more effective alternative to hand seeding and will decrease your water costs with its speedier growth and requires less frequent watering. Contact an installation contractor to see if they offer this service.
