Frequently Asked Questions

ProPlus hydromulch additives are environmentally friendly. Learn more about each product option in this spec sheet.

Yes, some additives include biostimulants or nutrients that can help feed the soil and support healthier plant growth as vegetation becomes established.
Yes, hydromulch additives create a better environment for seed germination and early growth by keeping soil moist and reducing stress on seedlings.
Some additives, like polymers that retain moisture, help the soil hold water longer, which can reduce irrigation frequency during early vegetation establishment.
Yes, additives like tackifiers and stabilization polymers strengthen the hydromulch matrix and increase resistance to erosion, especially on slopes or exposed soil.
Yes, steeper slopes or areas with high runoff may benefit from stronger tackifiers or stabilization polymers, while flatter areas might require only basic erosion control and moisture additives.
Additives are added to the hydroseeding or hydromulching tank, mixed with water, mulch fibers and seed, and then sprayed as a slurry over the target area.

Choose based on your site conditions and needs. For example, select an option with a stronger tackifier for steep slopes, moisture-retaining polymers for dry climates or biostimulants when soil nutrients are low.

Hydromulch additives are supplemental materials mixed into a hydromulch slurry to improve adhesion to soil, increase moisture retention, stabilize slopes or aid seed germination.
A tackifier helps bind the mulch fibers, seed and soil together and improves the hydromulch’s ability to stick to the ground, reducing washout from rain or irrigation.
