Seed Aide - Cover Grow, Water Retaining Seed Starting Mulch

Seed Aide® - Cover Grow

Seed Aide® CoverGrow™ is an advanced technology pellet made from recycled wood and cellulose fibers. Once applied and activated by water, the pellets quickly expand and disperse to provide outstanding protection and water-holding performance right where it’s needed—whether you’re spot treating smaller bare spots, or hydrospraying larger areas, CoverGrow is the easy and convenient way to establish vegetation.

Broadcast with Spreader or by Hand

Increased swelling, dispersion and coverage compared to leading dry applied pellets

Smoother flowing for easy spreader application

Stays in place due to advanced tackifier technology

Hydroseeding

Rapid dispersion and fast mixing in jet-agitated hydroseeders

Easy application of the smooth shooting, high coverage slurry

Resists rainfall impact to stay in place longer than competition due to advanced tackifier technology

Applied by hand or spreader or through a hydroseeder, CoverGrow provides:

Better turf establishment

Better ground coverage for dry and hydroseeding applications

Faster loading and smooth shooting for hydroseeding applications

+25% greater water holding capacity

+25% greater swell volume

+25% faster water absorption

Better soil bonding to prevent movement during rain or irrigation with included tackifier

DIRECTIONS

Hydroseeding:
Strictly comply with manufacturer’s installation instructions and recommendations. Use approved hydro-spraying machines. Do not exceed maximum slope length of 35 feet (11 m) when slope gradients are steeper than 4H to 1V.

Add 60 pounds (27 kg) per 100 gallons (379 L) of water along with seed when hydroseeding; confirm loading rates with equipment manufacturer.

Broadcast Spreading:
Strictly comply with manufacturer’s installation instructions and recommendations. Prepare or rake the soil, spread the seed and apply
CoverGrow. Recommend 36'' drop spreader with a fixed rate plate. You may also spread by hand for spot or patch seeding. Do not exceed
maximum slope length of 25 feet (7.6 m) when slope gradients are steeper than 4H to 1V.

(Only apply to stable slopes that have been designed to divert water flows away from the face of the slope, therefore eliminating surface-flow energy from above from damaging the slope face.)
