How to Hydro-Seed [ Hydro seeding 101 ]
Ойын-сауық
Join us as we wrap up an Allen's Demolition project by Hydro seeding!! A quick how to tutorial on hydro seeding!
By Request - A rough Cost Breakdown
Seed:
1 bag of contractors seed - $99.00
1 Bag of all Green seed - $69.00
1 bag of fertilizer - $25.00
1 bag of neutralime - $32.00
1 container of Floc Lock - $26
4 Bales of hydro mulch - $20.00 each - $80.00 total
Rental of the machine - $267.00
Total time involved picking up, mixing, spraying, and returning unit..... maybe 6 hours
Total cost = $598 + 6 hours of time!! This was only about a 1/4 acre lot (or less). It gets much cheaper per acre the more acres you do at a time!

An excellent video. It will be a good life with your family. Greetings from Turkey.
Builder was spraying this green material on storm water pond in my neighborhood. I was wondering what's that. Then came across your video. Very informative ..... Keep it up.

Where did you buy the hydro mulch?
I live in Orangeburg County SC and have a lot about half that size I'd like to have grass on, how much would I have to water it after spraying it on the ground?
Nice
Good looking peoples
Nice video. After hydro seeding after how many weeks will you apply fertilizer (they say to apply starter fertilizer after 5 to 6 weeks). Do you mow and then apply the fertilizer or just apply it on the grass since again you’ll need to wait till 8 weeks to mow the lawn? By then the fertilizer would have anyway settled right?

Thats an awesome question! I actually dont know the answer to that. We only hydro seed lots after we tear down houses. The maintenance and up keep is up to the property owner once we leave, we dont come back to fertilize!

Hydroseeding is done on new subdivisions and demolition projects to suppress the dust. The dust is pain in the provervbial if not suppressed.

Hello, thank you for this video. I just brought a home in the Loris (Bayboro) area and I’m looking to have this done. Can you tell me who I can contact? Some companies told me they only do commercial properties. Thank you!
She's right about the onion grass🤣🤣🤣 but it's actually a weed that grows in the grass we have that a lot down here in Savannah Georgia when you cut the grass it smells like a bunch of onions sweet onions💯💯💯
Thanks for the video! Can you add the cost breakdown in the video description?

I know this is a couple years later but I just now discovered hydroseeding and just want to ask if you feel like hydroseeding would be a good small business to start that could maybe eventually develop into a larger business or is hydroseeding something that would be better utilized as a sub component of a landscaping business? Currently interested in starting my own business, just unsure of what route to take

Most people I know that do this, do it as part of a landscaping business. I am not sure you could make ends meet if all you did was hydroseed?

@@MorlenKennels I have the same thinking as well. I’ve heard of people having businesses dedicated just to hydroseeding from other KZread videos, but I agree with making ends meet. Someone would need a lot of properties continuously to keep a steady revenue, but eventually, someone would run out of properties in a localized area and would need to expand their area of work. But thank you for your response! Great video!
Onion grass is iust wild onions that have taken hold. Their greens look like grass and yes, the yard smells like onion when mowed

My best advice is to talk to the people that you buy the seed from. They are a great resource and can give you all the quantities that you will need! My local seed store sales man actually came out to my first jobsite and walked me through the process in person!
Did you buy seeds specifically for "hydro seeding" or can u just use any seed from big box store? I have 2 bags of Kentucky grass & 1 bag of annual rye ....don't want to get rid of it.
