Caring for your New Hydroseed

---

After the hydroseed has been applied, wait 24 hours before watering.  Your watering schedule will vary depending on the time of year and weather conditions, and you will receive an information package upon the completion of your project.  The hydroseed and ground should stay moist, but not over- saturated with water.  You may contact Kemptville Grass at any time for more information regarding watering.

It is important to follow these instructions to achieve optimal results and avoid damaging your new lawn:

• Wait until your new grass is about 3-4 inches long before mowing for the first time.  
•  Cut off only 1/4 inch, using sharp blades
• Adjust your blade to the highest setting
• Mow slowly and carefully
• Allow the grass clippings to collect on the ground 

Select a slow release, high nitrogen fertilizer to apply to your dry grass after 4-5 weeks.  To avoid damage, apply evenly, and do not apply too much.  As your grass thickens over time, it will become strong and healthy and choke out many of the weeds. Do not use any type of herbicide for at least 3 months.

Please contact Kemptville Grass with any questions or to book an appointment to have the fertilizer applied.
