Hydroseeding in Winter Valley

Hydroseeding in Winter Valley turns new estate yards on Ballarat's western edge into a thick lawn for a fraction of the cost of turf. Lots here sit right beside farmland, so weeds move in quickly on bare soil. We clear them, prepare the clay, spray a cool-season blend and quote a fixed price first.

The newest part of Ballarat West

Winter Valley is one of the newest estates in the Ballarat West growth area, with homes still going up on former paddocks.

Most lots are handed over as compacted clay, and the open, exposed ground gets the full force of Ballarat's cold westerly winds.

What we recommend for Winter Valley yards

  • Weed spraying before any seed goes down
  • Ripping and top-dressing compacted estate clay
  • A cool-season blend that stays green through winter
  • Tackifier to hold seed on open, windy lots

Weeds from the paddocks next door

Winter Valley still backs onto open farmland, and weed seed blows in with every northerly. Bare soil left for a few months fills with capeweed, thistles and onion grass. We spray the weeds and let them die off before we seed, and a thick new lawn is the best defence after that, because it leaves weeds no bare ground to land on.
