(Figures given in bulk seed take into account purity and <br />germination). <br />To determine amount of seed needed for more than one acre, <br />just multiply given figure by needed acreage. <br />*Seeding rates are figured for drilling, which is recommended <br />over broadcasting. <br />To figure rates for broadcasting , if desired, multiply lbs/acre <br />(ofter acres have been determined) by 2. Broadcast rates should <br />be double the drill rates. <br />For the best success the area needs ground preparation before <br />seeding. End product should be a weed controlled firm seed bed. <br />D.Depth of seed should be 4 to ~ inches deep. (If broadcasted the <br />seed should be raked into the soil same depth as recommended for <br />drilling.) <br />E.Seeding Date - Late fall ( October 18th) <br />F.Mulching is recommended. 4,000 lbs/acre (grass hay or straw) <br />III. Topsoiling <br />It is recommended that at least ten inches of topsoil be placed <br />over subsoil. <br />
