Hydroseeding in Tarneit

Hydroseeding in Tarneit needs a slightly different approach to the east of Melbourne, because the western plains are drier and windier. We use tackifier to hold seed in place, drought-tolerant blends and proper clay prep. The result is a thick lawn at a fraction of the cost of turf.

Lawns on the western plains

Tarneit sits on the basalt plains west of Melbourne. The clay here cracks in summer and holds water in winter.

The west also gets less rain than the eastern suburbs, and hot northerly winds can dry out new seed quickly.

What we recommend for Tarneit yards

  • Tackifier in every spray to stop seed blowing away
  • A drought-tolerant warm-season blend
  • Gypsum and topsoil to open up heavy clay
  • A watering plan built around Victoria's permanent water saving rules

When to spray in Tarneit

Autumn is the sweet spot in the west. The soil is still warm from summer, the northerly winds have eased and winter rain does some of the watering for you. If you need a lawn before Christmas, spray by early October so it has time to root before the heat.
