Maintaining proper lawn hydration is key. After HydroSeeding lawns, they should be watered about 2 to 3 times daily. New lawns should not be saturated during watering to prevent puddles. An irrigation system or sprinkler is the best way to water your new lawn. You want to keep the area consistently moist.

In most cases, apply fertilizer after the first mowing, which should be done 30 days from originally HydroSeeding your lawn. Follow up with a 7-step fertilization program.

The longer you stay off, the better. Foot traffic can damage the new grass. Walking on the newly seeded grass after HydroSeeding can leave impressions and bare spots.

In most cases, HydroSeeding will germinate within 5 to 7 days and fill in within 3 to 4 weeks if watered properly. It can take up to 8 to 10 weeks to fully establish.

According to FINN Corporation, HydroSeeding is the best method for fast and healthy grass germination, as well as high plant survival and protection rates. This is because it can retain 10x its weight in water.

You will want to wait to mow till the HydroSeed grass reaches about 3 to 4 inches in height. Use the 1/3 rule as a guideline. Only cut 1/3 of the grass off.
