Hydro-Tack

The coverage provided by our mulch can be enhanced with our Hydro-Tack tackifier, which provides additional locking and adhesion to keep the mulch in place on slopes and during heavy rainfall.  Hydro-Tack tackifier is packed 5 bottles to the case.  One 3 lb. bottle covers one acre.

In all applications, bags of mulch are dispersed into the tank of a hydro-seeder filled with water, with the agitation system turned on.  We recommend adding one 40 lb. bag of National Fiber mulch per 100 gallons of water for every 1,500 sq. ft.  While this slurry is being agitated, grass seed and fertilizer are added per manufacturer's instructions (usually 8 lb. grass seed and 3 lb. fertilizer per 100 gal water).  This mixture should ideally be conditioned for about 15 minutes before it is ready for spraying.  Best results are obtained when the slurry is sprayed directly downward onto the ground by an operator walking at the end of a flexible hose with nozzle.  The thickness of the applied slurry should be such that the applicator can barely see the ground beneath.
