Big Lots on Hill Slopes

Hydroseeding in Walnut covers some large yards. Housing here is mainly master-planned single-family homes ranging from about 1,800 to 11,200 square feet, and the bigger lots carry wide lawns and long slopes. Covering that much ground with sod is expensive; hydroseeding is usually the more practical way to establish grass on a large area.

Steep north, gentle south

The city lies between the steep San Jose Hills to the north and the gently sloping Puente Hills to the south, on the southern slopes of the San Jose Hills. North-side lots tend to have steeper banks that need blankets or bonded fiber matrix. South-side lots are gentler and often fine with standard hydromulch and seed.

Creeks to the river

Snow Creek and Lemon Creek flow south toward the San Jose Creek valley, which runs west to the San Gabriel River. Runoff from a graded yard or construction site travels that route. Silt fence and inlet protection on grading jobs keep sediment out of those creeks.

Black walnut country

The city's name comes from the Spanish word for walnut trees, and the native California black walnut grows in the San Jose Hills. Historically the land was grazed and planted in wheat, grapes and citrus. On lots that border native hillside, a native seed mix on the transition slope fits better than turf and needs much less water.

Dry summers

Walnut averages 17.32 inches of precipitation, with February the wettest at 4.76 inches and June through August totaling about 0.12 inches. Highs reach about 92 F in August. A fall seeding gets the help of winter rain; a summer seeding needs dependable irrigation on what may be a very large area.

Walnut Questions

Is hydroseed cheaper than sod for a large lot?

Usually by a wide margin on big areas. The written estimate gives the actual price for your property.

My lot is on the north side near the San Jose Hills. Is the slope too steep?

Steep banks can be seeded, but they need blankets or bonded fiber matrix to hold through rain.

Can you seed native plants on the slope above my yard?

Yes. A native mix on the transition slope blends with the hillside and uses little water once established.

Why does silt fence matter here?

Local creeks carry runoff to the San Gabriel River, so keeping mud on site protects the watershed and helps meet permit conditions.
