,~ • . ~ * PLS-Pure Live Seed, bulk seed will be purchased, which has less pure ; live seed per pound, so more seed will be purchased than indicated above. . , ~~ Pounds Bulk Seed = Pounds PLS .: ~F;;; $ Germination x $ Purity ' ~ :~'': Following are several planting procedures which should be used in ~`,,~ •1' revegetating the site and to help establish an adequate stand: ~ ~~'~'.I Y ,! 1) All areas to be seeded should be smoothed and graded. All 1\,•++ 1::! slopes should not be steeper than a 3:1 and preferable flatter r f ' ~ slopes of 6: 1. The success of plant establishment increases ~~ a ''•~;' with the decrease in slope steepness. All runoff water must ~ ~':~` either be controlled or diverted, so as not to run down the JJ 5``/ :~~~~ slopes and create gullies. ,~,:; 2) The soil on all areas to be seeded, should be tilled. The ~i:~ ~~~~ above seeding rate is for seed which Is broadcast. If the seeding ~~ ~ •. .;1 is to be done by a drill, the above rates should be reduced ~^ by one-half. , .: " „~. ,~ 3) Forty pounds of available nitrogen and forty pounds of available ~ ~'.;~ . phosphate should be applied per acre, unless a soil analysts * ~' ,~ ~' Indicates a higher amount. ;~;.' 4) All seeded areas should be mulched, to conserve moisture, ';~~ ) reduce erosion, and prevent surface compaction.
