Where Bermuda Is Already a Crop
Hydroseeding in Tuttle has a head start: Bermuda grass already grows well here. Tuttle's farm economy includes wheat, cotton, corn, alfalfa hay, cattle and Bermuda grass hay. If a pasture next door is growing Bermuda for hay, a well-prepped lawn on the same soil can grow it too.
A low-lying river basin
Tuttle sits in a low-lying basin along the South Canadian River. Low ground collects water from the land around it, and fresh dirt can wash and settle into low spots. Before seeding, we check that the yard drains to a swale or ditch rather than into a puddle by the back door, and we seed drainage paths with extra mulch so they hold.
Ranch and farm roots
The town was platted in 1901 on land purchased from the Colbert family and named for rancher James H. Tuttle. It grew as a farm and ranch community east of the Chisholm Trail. Large, open lots are still common, and many new homes sit on what was pasture.
Fast-growing Tri-City
Tuttle grew about 23 percent between 2010 and 2020. It is part of the Tri-City Area with Newcastle and Blanchard. New construction means new lawns, new driveways with ditch lines, and new septic fields, all of which need cover.
What we typically do here
- Bermuda lawns on new home sites
- Converting old pasture to mowable lawn
- Ditch and swale seeding with erosion control blankets
- Silt fence for builders
Watering on open lots
Most Tuttle home sites are wide and sunny with little shade to slow evaporation. For the first two to three weeks we recommend short waterings once or twice a day so the mulch layer stays damp, then longer, less frequent soakings once the seedlings are a couple of inches tall.

Tuttle Questions
Is Bermuda the right grass for a Tuttle lawn?
For sunny yards, it usually is. It is already grown locally for hay and handles the summer heat.
My lot sits low. Will new grass wash out?
We grade to move water off the lot and add extra mulch or blankets in the drainage path.
Can you turn hay pasture into a lawn?
Yes. We level, prep and reseed so it can be mowed short.
Do you seed septic fields and ditch lines too?
Yes. Both are common on Tuttle acreage.
