<br />L.K. Chen <br />Re vegetation Plan cont. <br />Page 2 <br />With the limited amount of information that I have pertaining to this <br />type of soil material, I am recommending that trial plots be used to <br />determine what species will tolerate the existing conditions. I.Would <br />also suggest that at least half of the two trial areas be mulched with <br />grass hay if available, at the rate of 2 tons per acre. <br />SEEDING EQUIPMENT <br />Use a suitable grass drill with an agitation to keep varieties mixed; <br />parker wheels may or may not be necessary, drill on the contour if at <br />all possible. <br />SEEDING DATE <br />Through our experience in grass seeding, we find that sometime after October <br />15th and before the ground freezes, or as early as possible in the spring <br />and not after June 1st. <br />#1 Acid Tolerant Species <br />Hard Fescue <br />Red Fescue <br />Switch Grass <br />Lespedeza Clover <br />#2 Drought Resistant <br />Pubescent Wheatgrass <br />Streambank Wheatgrass <br />Crested Wheatgrass <br />Indian Rice Grass <br />Sand Dropseed <br />pls/acre <br />3 <br />3 <br />2 <br />10 <br />18 lbs. pls/acre <br />4.0 <br />4.0 <br />3.0 <br />4.0 <br />.25 <br />15.25 lbs/pls <br />A vegetative plant list was made on March 8, 1983 of the plants that were <br />identifiable at that time.
