Newly Hydroseeded Lawn Questions

Good morning, all! I'm in the process of landscaping a fairly new construction. Three and a half weeks ago, my lawn area was extended and reshaped with hydroseeding. Although i'm delighted with the way the lawn has come in, i'm experiencing a bit of anxiety about my "first mow." The lawn seems so tender, and i don't want to make any mistakes. If anyone here has experience with hydroseeding, might you have answers to the following questions?

1. How many days should i let the lawn dry out before i mow it?

2. Must the clippings be bagged, or can i just let them mulch back into the lawn?

3. Will the weight of my tractor (a small John Deere) cause problems on the newly graded and germinated lawn area (tire impressions, for example)?

4. Other than just letting time pass, are there any additional steps i should take to get the new lawn to blend more seamlessly with the old (i.e., the color, thickness, etc.)?

I thank you in advance for your consideration and replies!

Cheers!

Shouldnt your hydroseeder, that is the people that installed your lawn be able to answer these ?'s of yours???

Ever diligent, i endeavor to obtain information from all resources available to me. My apologies if my inquiries offended you in some way.

ESTREYA;
No offense taken at all. Just thought that the people that installed it should know BEST what you can and cannot do to/with your new lawn, and/or how best to treat it during its beginning stages of growth. Nothing wrong at all with asking here, after all, thats what DG is all about.

est, I suggest you check the 'grass and bamboo' section.

I work in the grass seed business and you should only mow for a while with a hand mower, no power riding mower. Too big and too heavy for the tender grass seedlings right now!
In the summertime, you can let the grass clippings mulch back into the soil but later in the fall and early in the spring, you should bag off so you don't have mold, rust, etc. problems.
