Table 3-5. Seed Nixes Applied on Areas <br />Revegetaied in 1985 <br />Two seed mites were applied on reclaimed areas in 1985. Seed mix 1 was used on upland <br />drier sites and south facing exposures. Seed mix 2 was used in drainages or north facing <br />exposures. Up to 25 percent of the reclaimed areas were seeded with seed mix 2, while <br />the majority of the area was seeded with seed miz 1. <br />A new drill seeder based on the Laird rangeland drill was manufactured for Peabody in <br />1985. The drill was constructed with two seed boxes, one for large seed end one for <br />smell seed. This allowed the drilling of the large seed and broadcasting of the smaller <br />seed. Seed mites were thus split into large seed and small seed components and bagged <br />separately by the seed dealer. Al l~seeding rates ere presented as drilled rates. <br />Seed Mix 1 - Large Seed Component <br /> Species Drilled Rate <br /> Scientific Name ~ Common Name PLS lbs/Ae <br /> Avroovron dasvstachyum v. dasvs to ch vum Thickspike Vheatgrass 2.00 <br /> Avroovron intermedium Intermediate Vheatgrass 1.00 <br /> Avroovron dasvstachyum v. rioarium Streambank Vheatgrass 1.00 <br /> Avroovron smithii Yestern Yh eetgrass 2.00 <br /> Avroovron inerme Beardless Bluebunch Vheatgrass 2.00 <br /> Avroovron trachvcaulum Slender Vheatgrass 2.00 <br />• Ceratochloe marainata Mountain Brome 2.00 <br /> Dactvlis olomereta Orchardgrass 0.50 <br /> El mus tinereus Basin Yildrye 1.00 <br /> El mus iunceus Russian Yildrye 1.00 <br /> Festuca ovine v. ovine Sheep Fescue 0.50 <br /> stioe viridula Green Meedlegress 2.00 <br /> Cercocarcus ledifloius Curlleef Mountain Mahogany 0.1D <br /> <br />Purshia tridentate <br />Antelope sitterbrush _ <br />0.20 <br /> Atriolex canescens Fourwing Saltbush 0.13 <br /> Ceratoides Janata Vinte rf at 0.07 <br /> Rhus trilobata Skunkbush Sumac 0.08 <br /> Hedysarum boreale Utah Swee[vetch 0.05 <br /> Penstemon strictus Rocky Mountain Penstemon 0.05 <br /> Linum lewisii Lewis Flex 0__05 <br /> Total Large Seed 17.73 PLS lbs/Ac <br /> Seed Miz 1 Small Seetl Component <br /> Phleum pretense Timothy 0.10 <br /> Poa em la Big Bluegrass 0.50 <br /> Poa comoressa Canada Bluegrass 0.10 <br /> Astraaalus titer Cicer Rilkvetch 1.00 <br /> Medicavo setiva Alfalfa 0.50 <br /> Mel ilotus officinalis Yellow Sueetclover 0.50 <br />• Achilles lanutosa Yestern Terror 0.05 <br />3.5 <br />
