Seeding Ahead of Spring Storms
Hydroseeding in Denton has to be ready for spring. Flash floods and severe thunderstorms are frequent here in spring, and the city gets about 37.7 inches of rain a year. A bare lot hit by one of those storms can lose its surface soil in a single evening, so getting seed and mulch down before storm season is the priority.
Flat terrain, big area
Denton covers about 89 square miles and lies on the northeast edge of the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin, which is mostly flat terrain. Elevations range from 500 to 900 feet. Flat lots need careful grading so water leaves the house, while the higher ground on the city's edges has more slope and calls for heavier erosion control.
Growth
Denton was the 13th largest-gaining city in the nation by numeric change between 2022 and 2023. New neighborhoods on the city's edges are a big share of our work: final grade, topsoil, silt fence for builders and hydroseed on finished lots.
Summer heat
Dry summer winds can push temperatures past 100 degrees, and average highs from June to August run 91 to 96 degrees. Denton is in USDA hardiness zone 8a. We prefer seeding in late spring so new grass has a few weeks of milder weather before the hottest stretch, with irrigation set up from day one.
South toward the lake
Lewisville Lake, a man-made reservoir, sits about 15 miles south of the city. Runoff from Denton's creeks feeds the Elm Fork system and the lake, so sediment control on construction sites matters here too.

Denton Questions
How do I protect a new Denton lawn from spring storms?
Get seed and mulch down before storm season, use blankets on slopes, and grade so water moves around the lawn.
Can you seed a large lot on the edge of Denton?
Yes. Hydroseeding is efficient on big areas, and we can split lawn and lower-maintenance zones.
Is summer too hot to hydroseed in Denton?
Mid-summer is hard on new seed. Late spring is better; if you must seed in summer, irrigation is essential.
Do Denton builders need silt fence?
Yes, on disturbed ground. It keeps sediment out of creeks that feed the Elm Fork and Lewisville Lake.
