Brief:
To hydro seed newly
prepaed areas where turfgrass grass had been harvested for repair work
to the main
playing field with premium grade sports turf perennial ryegrass
On a number of
occasions I was contracted to hydroseed areas on the practice fields at
North Harbour Stadium, North Shore Auckland New Zealand with premium
grade sports turf perennial
ryegrass seed in areas where turf had been harvested to do repairs to
the main sports field following concerts and other events that had
damaged the turf playing surface
|
North Harbour Stadium is
a stadium, situated in Albany, in North Shore City,
in New Zealand. It was opened
in 1997, after nearly a decade of discussion, planning and
construction. Rugby union, football and rugby
League are the only sports played
on the main ground. The
stadium also hosts large open air concerts.

hydromulched using a Finn Hydroseeder |
The first Hydroseeder was invented by FINN in
1953, and trademarked thereafter, to efficiently shoot seed and
fertilizers
over broad areas. This invention was more than a product innovation -
it was the
seed that grew an entirely new industry of turf and erosion control
contractors.
was a pioneer in the
development of wood-fiber based hydraulic mulch in 1965. We set the
industry
standards for performance then, and nearly a half decade later, Conwed
Fibers
products are still delivering superior performance with unrivaled
consistency.
