Highly competitive species that are not present in the main seed mixture for the revegetation should never be planted on topsoil stockpiles. If this is done those species are introduced into the final vegetation, possibly with disastrous results. When topsoil is to be stockpiled in accordance with the factors stated under the TOPSOILING section of this exhibit, the stockpiles will be planted with this mixture.

Often same degree of success can be achieved no matter when the seed is planted, especially if many natives are used in the mixture. However, in the Pueblo area the time of planting to produce high success rates is fairly restricted because of the hot and dry early summer period characteristic of the Pueblo area. When the seed is planted is dependent upm how it is planted. Drill seeding offers somewhat seeds/sgft Page 20
