Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Hydro's composition and how does it help with moisture retention in hydroseeding mulch?Hydro is a crosslinked polymer with a potassium salt base. The hydrophilic polymer is designed to retain a high amount of moisture. When added to hydroseeding mulch, the polymer will increase the amount of moisture held in the mulch matrix, which is more conducive for seed germination and establishment.
- How much water can Hydro retain and in what form?Each pound of Hydro will retain over 200 times its weight in tap water (rated at 160mg of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) per liter of water). Each pound of Hydro will hold over 24 gallons of additional water.
- How does Hydro help reduce paper Mache effect in hydroseeding?If paper is being used in hydroseeding, it has a tendency to have a paper Mache effect. Soil Moist Hydro can help reduce this effect while expanding and retracting during its water cycle.
- How can Hydro benefit the hydroseeding process in terms of application rate and performance?Use 3 to 4 pounds of Hydro per 1000 gallons of mix. It acts as a slurry lubricant that increases shooting distance and tightens the spray pattern. Depending on site conditions, soil type, and the type of mulch used, one acre will require 9-16 pounds of polymer.
