BUFFALO GROVE, Ill. – Whether you’re repairing a bald spot on a home or office lawn, trying to grow grass on your local patch, or reseeding a small section of a roadside strip or sports field, Profile Products’ new Seed Aide CoverGrow spread or spray mulching granules helps turn dirt to turf, thanks to technology originally developed for revegetation and erosion control on large-scale projects.
Made from recycled wood and cellulose, this super seed starter outperforms similar products on multiple fronts when applied on top of your seed of choice. It begins working the first time it comes in contact with water instead of requiring several irrigation cycles, so the seed it’s designed to nurture isn’t eaten by birds, trampled by people or washed away by rain before it can start to germinate. It swells to a large granule size when activated by water, so it covers more area with fewer pellets. It holds 25 percent more water and also bonds better to the soil, both keeping seeds moist and reducing seed movement during rain or irrigation.
Bonus: it can be applied by hand or broadcast spreader as well as hydraulically, providing fast and easy use of a professional-grade product for homeowners and landscapers.
A single 40-pound bag of CoverGrow delivers the equivalent of 50 pounds of coverage by other mulch pellets and granules because of the product’s 25 percent greater swell volume when activated by water. The product is biodegradable and breaks down without robbing the soil of nutrients.
