Care of your Newly Hydro Seeded Lawn!
Care and watering
However your new lawn is installed care is very important,
particularly for the first month.
Successful seed germination depends on a few days of special care. To
assure proper germination water regularly. We suggest two times a day
in warm weather. 10 to 15 minutes each. Keeping the yard moist will
maximize seed germination.
You may walk on the hydro seeded surface when watering. Try to walk
only on areas that are dry, and try to not disturb the mulch mat.
By watering regularly and keeping your new seedlings from drying out
you insure the beginnings of a lawn that will make your neighbors green
with envy.
Mowing
Mowing can begin once the new lawn is 3" tall in most areas.
Mowing stimulates growth and increases thickness. Set the mower high
at first, then gradually lower. Try to cut no more than 1/3 of the grass at
a time. One general rule for mowing is that the shorter you want to
mow the more often you need to mow to maintain healthy grass.
Fertilizing
Important! About one month after seeding, fertilize your new lawn
using a 10,10,10 or 12,12,12 or 19,19,19 fertilizer. The contractor who
installed your lawn used a high phosphorus or "starter fertilizer" when
hydro seeding your lawn (15,30,15). The phosphorus will stimulate root
growth, and in the early stages it is important to get good root growth
before you stimulate a vigorous top growth with nitrogen. After the next
30 days use normal fertilizer like 30,0 6. If your lawn is light green or
yellow you are low on nitrogen or iron!!
