Seeding

Gordon Energy now offers Hydro-Seeding, Drill Seeding, Broadcast Seeding & Matting.  We have the resources and buying power to get the exact blend of seeding materials to meet your requirements.  We are experienced with the common seeds such as fescue, blue grass, K-31, etc. as well as specialized native seeding.  We have several crews and the equipment to do multiple jobs at once.  We have even specially mounted lights on our seeders for available 24 hour seeding to accommodate you during the short seeding window of time.

Hydroseeding is a proven method for establishing blends and mixes of seed. Seed, fertilizer, mulch, soil conditioner, and tackfier are combined with water and placed in our hydroseeding equipment. When all ingredients are thoroughly mixed, the slurry is sprayed over the prepared site. A green "mat" covers the newly seeded area. That's the hydromulch, and it performs these 3 valuable functions.

1.        Moisture Retention: Seeds are kept moist because hydromulch retains 10-15 times its weight in water. Water is the key ingredient for a quicker and thicker seed establishment.

2.        Erosion Control: Wind and water erosion can prevent satisfactory results. Hydromulch "blankets" the area and helps to prevent these problems from occurring.

3.        Seed Protection: Hydromulch helps maintain soil temperature and protects young seeds from the scorching sun. It forms an almost perfect micro-climate for maximum germination. As your seeded area becomes established, the hydromulch will gradually decompose and disappear.

 
Drill seeding is an agricultural process complete with a tractor and a specialized seeding attachment called a drill. The drill uses a mechanical mechanism to place seed in the soil. The depth of the seed can be regulated as well as the rate of application.

Because drill seeding uses no wood/fiber mulch in the process the cost is generally 1/2 or even less. Drill seeding is advantageous on larger areas, more level areas and projects where obtaining adequate water to hydro-seed exist.

Drill seeding is not an inferior method of seeding.  Let us advise you on your particular project.
