Frequently asked questions

What is hydroseeding?

Hydroseeding is a planting process that uses a mixture of grass seed, water, fertilizer, mulch, and binding agents sprayed over soil. It promotes fast germination, even growth, and helps prevent erosion.

What are the benefits of hydroseeding compared to traditional seeding or turf?

Hydroseeding is faster, more cost effective, and provides excellent coverage especially for large or uneven areas. It also helps retain moisture, reduces erosion, and results in strong, healthy grass growth.

Where can hydroseeding be used?

Hydroseeding works well for lawns, slopes, construction sites, road embankments, golf courses, and even roofs. It’s suitable anywhere you want fast, even, and durable vegetation growth.

How long does it take for the grass to grow after hydroseeding?

You’ll usually see the first sprouts within 7–10 days, depending on weather and soil conditions. A full, green lawn typically appears in 3–6 weeks.

When is the best time to hydroseed in Finland?

The ideal time for hydroseeding in Finland is spring through early autumn (May–September) when temperatures are mild and there’s enough natural moisture for seed germination.

How should I take care of my lawn after hydroseeding?

Keep the area consistently moist for the first 2–3 weeks. Avoid walking on it until the grass has established roots. After about 4–6 weeks, you can begin mowing and maintaining it normally.

Is hydroseeding environmentally friendly?

Yes. Hydroseeding uses natural materials and reduces the need for soil disturbance. The mulch and binding agents help prevent erosion and runoff, protecting the environment.
