A flourishing, verdant lawn is often the centrepiece of a beautiful Sydney garden, contributing rich visual appeal and fostering an inviting, welcoming atmosphere.

Hydroseeding involves the even distribution of a slurry containing seed, mulch, fertiliser, and a binding agent onto a prepared soil surface. The slurry combines moisture retention, nutrient provision, and erosion control within a single application, revolutionising the traditional methods of lawn establishment. Explore the stages of the hydroseeding process with ProLawn:
– Soil preparation: Thoroughly clear the designated area of debris, weeds, or unwanted vegetation, followed by grading, levelling, and compacting to ensure a smooth and stable foundation upon which to apply the hydroseed.
– Slurry creation: ProLawn customises the hydroseed slurry to account for factors such as regional climate and soil conditions, selecting the ideal grass seed blend and nutrient composition for your Sydney property.
– Slurry application: Our team applies the slurry to the prepared soil surface using specialised hydroseeding equipment, ensuring uniform coverage and optimal seed-to-soil contact.
– Germination and establishment: The hydroseeded lawn takes root and begins to grow within a matter of weeks, transforming the treated area into a lush, vibrant carpet of healthy grass.
Electing to utilise hydroseeding for your Sydney lawn offers numerous benefits that elevate it above traditional seeding and sodding methods:
– Cost-effectiveness: Hydroseeding is a more affordable alternative to sodding, providing the advantage of instant lawn appeal without the high material and labour costs associated with sod installation.
– Rapid establishment: Hydroseeding fosters germination rates two to three times faster than conventional seeding methods, delivering a fully established lawn in a matter of weeks as opposed to months.
– Erosion control: The highly adhesive hydroseed slurry binds to the soil surface, minimising erosion and runoff, making it an ideal solution for sloped or uneven terrains.
– Customisation: Customise your seed blend and mulch composition to suit the unique requirements of your Sydney property, enabling you to select drought-tolerant, shade-tolerant, or native grass species, resulting in a better-adapted, more resilient lawn.
Following the hydroseeding application, implement these essential care techniques to nurture your emerging lawn to maturity:
– Watering: Maintain consistent moisture on the hydroseeded surface during the first few weeks, ensuring your new lawn receives adequate hydration to support optimal growth.
– Mowing: Begin mowing your lawn once it reaches approximately 7.5 centimetres in height (approximately four weeks after germination), maintaining the recommended cutting height for your particular grass type.
– Fertilisation: Apply the first fertiliser treatment approximately six to eight weeks after hydroseeding, depending on the grass type, weather conditions, and growth rates, and follow ProLawn’s expert guidance for ongoing fertilisation needs.
– Weed control: Monitor your emerging lawn for weed presence, swiftly removing any unwanted plants by hand or implementing non-aggressive weed treatments as advised by ProLawn.
