3-11 <br />hay will be spread and crimped into the surface. Following <br />• seeding and harrowing, another 2,000 lbs/acre of straw or native <br />hay will be spread. <br />On slopes steeper than 3:1, straw or native hay mulch will be <br />applied at the rate of 3,000 lbs/acre following seeding and <br />harrowing. This mulch will be anchored with degradable netting <br />such as Con-wed. <br />3.3.5 Planting Times <br />Seed will be planted during late summer or early fall to take <br />advantage of the period of highest precipitation, which begins in <br />August. Shrub and tree stock will be planted in early spring of <br />• the year following seeding with stock in dormant condition. <br />3.3.6 Irrigation and Fertilization <br />Woody stock will be watered in at the time of planting. This will <br />give the stock a significant headstart. In addition, a 5-gram <br />fertilizer tablet will be placed in the root zone at planting. <br />Aside from this fertilizer, no additional fertilizer (except for <br />phosphorous if analysis indicates that this relatively immobile <br />element is deficient) will be added until the year after seeding <br />and planting when soil tests and field evaluation of vegetational <br /> vigor will be used to determine if fertilizer is required, and how <br />• much. Unneeded fertilization will be avoided, since native plants <br />have low potential response to fertilizer and undesirable weed <br />1/17/86 <br />
