The Challenge• Install a lawn for a newly constructed church

campus• Sloping lot• Very large property• The congregation wants results – as quickly as

possible

The solution: Hydroseeding

HydroseedingThe slurry forms a thick mat that retards weed growth so the lawn will be lush and weed-free

Hydroseeding Continues… The seeds hold 10 times the water that regular seed holds.
