Compost Blanket

The blower truck technology from Ground Solutions is ideal for successfully terraseeding large areas using a compost blanket.  A computerized seed control system built into the truck allows for uniform seed distribution throughout the soil.  The advantage of this method over hydroseeding is that the seed is within the soil rather than being placed onto the top of soil.  This provides nutrients around the seed as well as a protected growing environment for the seed to germinate.

With a compost blanket, our blower truck mixes amended topsoil or green waste compost with seed as the seed blows into place. This process deposits a one-inch layer of nutrient-rich soil with evenly distributed seed onto bare ground. New seed can germinate easier in this perfect growing environment, establishing strong roots that will take hold easier in the existing soil. The result? Faster growing, hardier plants creating a more successful project.
