Giving You a Lawn You'll Love!

The use of turf grass sod is the best method for establishment of grass in your lawn.

Sod will transform your bare dirt yard into a lush green lawn in a matter of a few hours.

The many benefits of sodding include:

Hydro-Mulching

 Hydro-mulching, sometimes referred to as hydroseeding, is a grass planting process.

This grass planting process is fast, efficient, and economical.

This method is frequently more effective than conventional seeding and more economical than conventional sodding.

It begins by mixing mulch, seed, fertilizer, and water in a tank. Then the material is pumped from the tank and sprayed onto the ground.

The mixed material is often referred to as a slurry, and looks very similar to green paper maché.
Once applied to the soil, the material enhances initial growth by providing an environment beneficial to seed germination.
  A good mulch application will reduce moisture evaporation from the soil.

Grass seed needs soil moisture to germinate and grow, and that moisture must come from either irrigation or rainfall.

Poor growth is almost always due to lack of water. 

Hydro-mulching has a variety of uses

Hydro-mulching is best suited for large areas where sodding may be cost prohibitive.

Large acreage properties or commercial projects often call for the use of hydro-mulch for turf establishment.

You more than likely have seen the use of hydro-mulching along road ways during highway construction.

WATER! WATER! WATER!

Without adequate irrigation, the establishment time and coverage will vary significantly.

To ensure quality turf, proper watering is essential.

An in-ground irrigation system makes the application of water much easier and more efficient.

This goes for sod and seed.

The Results

 Warm and moist conditions promote faster seed germination.

Seed bed conditions determine growth rates after germination.

When all the conditions are favorable, grass may require mowing and have excellent coverage in about four to eight weeks.

During less favorable circumstances, a good stand of grass can take many months, or even up to a year, to become established.

Growth seems certain

Most new construction sites need new grass.

These include housing and business facilities. Highway construction and other land development areas need new grass.

Grass is necessary to provide erosion and soil control.

If your project calls for the establishment of turf let SIMS GRASS help you with the option that best suits your needs and budget.

Seeding, Sodding, or Hydro-Mulching?

Each method has its advantages and disadvantages.

Seeding without the protection of mulch is usually less expensive than hydro-mulching, so it may be the method of choice due to budget constraints.

However, the results will almost always be less dependable.

Sodding will provide solid coverage of grass immediately.

Sod will also provide a better quality lawn as turf grasses are developed hybrids made for homes and residential areas.

Hydromulching can provide a full coverage of grass in six to eight weeks.

The cost of hydro-mulching falls between that of seeding and sodding.
