Making the greens

Greenery is indeed an essential part of landscaping and creating and maintaining lush green, thick and healthy lawns is an art. Experts at Sietsma promise to create and maintain your lawn professionally.

Days have gone when growing a lawn required days and months. Sietsma uses two techniques to install lawns.

1) Installing instant lawns: It is also known as sod lawn. Rolls of readymade grass are brought to the site and spread across to create a lush, green garden from the day of installation.

2) Hydro seeding: Yet another technique for growing a lawn is hydro seeding. It is a cost effective solution to grow grass quickly in places where growing grass may not otherwise be possible, like slopes and erosion areas.
Hydro seeding is a combination of dry grass seeds, water, fertilizer and growth stimulating mulch. The combination of seeds used depends on the weather, climate and space available. All the materials are organic and are spread over the available area. This material hardens to form a “green” mat. The mulch holds the seeds in place, so that they are not eroded on slopes and areas prone to soil erosion. The mulch holds the seed until the seeds sprout. Grass begins to appear on the surface in three to four days and the green lawn is ready within a span of few weeks. The growth varies with the weather conditions.

The good news about hydro seeding

• Seeds used are tested and only good quality seeds are used.
• The mix of seeds can be customized according to the environment.
• The cost is almost one-fourth of installing a sod lawn.
• The lawn is ready in a short span.
• It costs only a little more than the traditional method.
