1. A New Standard for the Establishment of Grass from Seed

2. PennMulch is made from recycled newsprint and superabsorbent polymers

3. What Does This Stuff Do? Retains moisture at the seedbed By keeping the seed moist germination is accelerated and mortality is reduced More Grass Faster!

4. The patented PennMulch pellet expands and retains moisture at the seed bed level.

5. Provides a Full Rate of Starter Fertilizer A high phosphorus fertilizer establishes strong roots A Single Application Does it All! What Does This Stuff Do?

6. PennMulch provides: Enhanced germination with 1-3-1 ratio of starter fertilizer Rate/ MSF N/ MSF P 2 O 5 / MSF K 2 O/ MSF 75LN0.752.250.75 65LB0.651.950.75 55LB0.551.650.75

7. What Does This Stuff Do? Eliminates the need for straw No Weed Seeds! Does not blow away Never needs to be removed

8. A Professional Finished Look Customers love the neat finished look Every Job is A Billboard That Demonstrates Your Professionalism! What Does This Stuff Do?

9. How Does It Work? Moisture Retention? Our patented super- absorbent polymer technology -- similar to the “gel” type products used in horticulture – absorbs up to 400X its weight in water!

10. How Does It Work? Moisture Retention? The super-absorbent polymer acts as mini storage cells swelling to absorb moisture from irrigation or rainfall and then releasing it back to the soil as it dries

11. How Does It Work? Moisture Retention? By reducing moisture loss irrigation intervals can be increased. If you rely on natural rainfall “dry time” is reduced resulting in a greater seedling survival rate and greater stand density

12. Germination with and without PennMulch

13. How Does It Compare? Moisture Retention? Competing products such as fibrous hydro- mulch or straw are not nearly as effective at moisture retention!

14. How Does It Compare? Moisture Retention? Other pelletized paper mulch products do not have our patented super- absorbent polymer! They absorb and retain only a small fraction of the water retained by PennMulch

15. How Do I Use It? Rates The Optimum Rate of Application is 75LB.MSF Based on soil conditions, irrigation, seed variety and other specifics applications of 55 to 80 LB.MSF can be used.

16. Recommended Spread Rate -- dry application 75 lbs./1,000 sq. ft.

17. Recommended Spread Rate -- fully hydrated 75 lbs./1,000 sq. ft.
