<br />' mixture includes species which are adapted to both sandy and mixed soil <br />textures. The proposed mixture makes provisions for sod and bunch grasses <br />' as well an emphasizes native species. The seeding rates are based on a <br />' density of 40 pure live seeds (PLS) per square foot (drilled rate). For <br />the purposes of purchasing seed, a bulk rate is also given with the <br />' appropriate pure live seed rate incorporated into the calculations. <br />' RECLAMATION SEED MIXTURE AND CULTURAL PRACTICES <br /> Drilled Rate <br />' Pounds Bulk Pounds <br /> Syecies ~ of Mix PLS/Ac.
