ABOUT HYDROSEEDING
What is Hydroseeding?
Hydroseeding is a planting process that uses a slurry of seed and mulch. It is an efficient, cost-effective and eco-conscious way to sow grass on residential and commercial landscapes, promoting quick germination and lush growth. This method combines seed, mulch, fertiliser, tackifier, and water, and is sprayed over prepared soil to establish a healthy lawn.
Benefits of Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding has several benefits over traditional methods of planting, such as laying sod or planting seed by hand.
Fast & Efficient
Hydroseeding covers large areas quickly and evenly, establishing uniform, healthy lawns through its specialised seed mixture that promotes rapid germination and growth.
Cost-Effective
Hydroseeding is an automated process, reducing the need for extensive labor and time to complete the job, making it a cost-efficient choice for establishing a lush lawn.
Eco-Conscious
Hydroseeding mulch shields and preserves soil nutrients, prevents erosion, and conserves moisture, fostering healthier lawns with reduced water needs for an eco-conscious approach.

What is hydroseeding?
Hydroseeding is a planting process that uses a slurry of seed and mulch. It is an efficient, cost-effective way to sow grass on residential and commercial landscapes, promoting quick germination and lush growth. This method combines seed, mulch, fertiliser, and water, and is sprayed over prepared soil to establish a healthy lawn.
How does hydroseeding compare to traditional seeding or sod?
Hydroseeding offers several advantages over traditional seeding methods and sod. It is more cost-effective than sod and can cover large areas quickly. Hydroseeding typically sees faster germination and lawn establishment compared to traditional seeding. It also reduces soil erosion and is more effective for uneven terrains.
What types of seeds can be used with hydroseeding?
A wide variety of seeds can be used with hydroseeding, including grass, wildflowers, and erosion control plants. We can customise your sed mix based on the climate, soil type, and specific needs of your property.
How long does it take for hydroseeded grass to grow?
Grass from hydroseeding typically begins to germinate within 5 to 10 days, and you may see significant growth within 3 to 4 weeks. The full establishment of the lawn can take several months, depending on the grass type, soil conditions, and weather.
Is hydroseeding environmentally friendly?
Yes, hydroseeding is considered environmentally friendly. The mulch used in the slurry helps to protect the seed from erosion, retains moisture, and decomposes into the soil, adding nutrients. The ability to customise seed mixtures also allows for the selection of drought-resistant and native species that contribute to local biodiversity.
What maintenance is required after hydroseeding?
After hydroseeding, it’s important to keep the seeded area moist to ensure proper germination and growth. This usually requires light watering several times a day until the grass is established. Avoid walking or mowing the newly seeded area until the grass has reached a mowing height.
Is Hydroseeding safe for my family, pets and wildlife?
Yes, hydroseeding is a safe and environmentally friendly landscaping method. The slurry used in hydroseeding consists of natural ingredients: a mixture of water, seeds, mulch, and, at times, organic fertilisers or tackifiers (natural substances used to stabilise the mulch). This method does not involve harmful chemicals, making it safe for families, pets, and wildlife.
