Hydroseeding in Melton

Hydroseeding in Melton needs a lawn built for dry conditions, because this is one of the driest parts of greater Melbourne. We use drought-tolerant blends, hold the seed in place against the wind and set up a watering plan you can stick to. It costs a fraction of turf.

Lawns for one of Melbourne's driest areas

Melton gets noticeably less rain than the eastern suburbs, and it sits on open, windy basalt plains.

New estates start with compacted clay, and summers are hot and dry. That combination is hard on new turf and on seed that isn't protected.

What we recommend for Melton yards

  • A drought-tolerant warm-season blend
  • Tackifier and a heavier mulch rate to hold moisture
  • Autumn spraying so winter rain helps establishment
  • Watering within Victoria's permanent water saving rules

Acreage around Melton

Beyond the estates, Melton is surrounded by larger properties towards Toolern Vale and Kurunjang. House lawns, paddocks and cleared ground on these blocks are priced per square metre, and the rate drops as the area grows. Our rig carries its own water, so a site without mains is no problem.
