I want grass! Which is better seed & straw, sod or Hydro-Seed?

This is the question people most frequently ask us. Hand seeding requires time, persistence, hard work and, often, re-seeding. Heavy rain can wash away your seed, sun and drought can burn it out or a flock of birds can stop by for lunch. Sodding is the fastest but also the most expensive method. In just 3-4 weeks after a Hydro-Seed application, you can be enjoying a plush green yard.

With Libbee’s Hydro-Seed equipment a mixture of seed, fertilizer, hydro-mulch, tackifier and water are all sprayed on the area in one fast easy step and Hydro-Seeding eliminating the use of messy straw! Once sprayed, the wet fiber mulch will help create a bond to the soil and provide the seeds with a water retaining blanketing-coat while protecting it from sunlight, wind, erosion, and pests. As the grass seeds begin to germinate, the fiber mulch will slowly decompose adding nutrients to the soil. Hydro-Seeding is great for problem areas and difficult to seed areas such as hillsides, erosion control areas and narrow areas between sidewalks and curbs.

Sod can be used to repair a small area of lawn or be used to install an entire yard. Seed may be blown about by the wind, eaten by birds and takes some weeks to form a visually appealing lawn and further time before it is robust enough for use but newly laid sod establishes a lawn immediately and is usually fully functional within 30 days of installation, its root system is comparable to that of a seeding lawn two or three years older.

Beginning in April, Libbee’s will do a complete inspection to ensure your system is working properly. We’ll make any repairs based off winterization notes and any adjustments that are necessary to ensure your system is operating properly.

Irrigation Maintenance
Libbee’s experience irrigation team can provide preventive maintenance ideas and do repairs to your existing system.

Rain Sensor

It’s most cost effective way to prevent your sprinklers from operating during or after precipitation, they are easy to install on any automatic irrigation system and a great way to ensure your system waters only when necessary.

We’ll inspect each zone and all components for problems, make a detailed list of items to be fixed in the spring. Professional winterizing your system ensures your valuable investment is protected and ready to perform in the spring.

Spring Cleanup
Weather permitting Libbee’s schedules spring cleanup between February and June. Our spring cleanup includes:

• Leaves, sticks and unwanted debris left over from winter is collected and removed from beds and tree rings.• Shrubbery, ornamental trees, and ground cover that were not pruned in the fall are pruned. All dead and/or damaged material is removed.

• Landscape beds and trees are edged and turned into the beds or the clipping removed if needed.

• A pre-emergent grass/weed control is applied to all beds. Existing weeds are removed or treated with post emergent.

Mulch Maintenance
Every spring a new base of mulch should be added to existing landscape beds and tree rings. This aids in the overall health and vitality of your plants, shrubs, and trees. Mulch acts as an insulator, helping to retain moisture in the soil and as a barrier against weed growth. It’s fresh, natural, dark color creates contrast, which enhances the overall appearance of the landscape greenery of your home or business.

Leaf Removal
• For properties that have mature trees or densely planted trees, leaf removal is a must for maintaining a neat and clean appearance.
• Fall is also the key period for rejuvenation of turf grass so it is important that leaves do not cover the grass over the winter.
• Once leaves begin to drop in the fall, mowing crews will take extra time to mulch the leaves into fine pieces during routine mowing visits.
• When leaves start falling in heavy concentrations, they are blown together in piles with commercial blowers and either carried into a wooded area to be used as natural mulch or collected with a leaf vacuum and removed.
• A final leaf removal visit may be required in the very late fall, to leave your property appearance neat and clean looking over the winter months.
• Some species of trees do not lose all their leaves in the fall. They gradually lose them over the course of the winter months. A select few continue losing leaves into the spring up to when their new leaves begin budding.
• Therefore please be aware that minimal amounts of leaves may be present on your property throughout the winter months.
