• Table 3.5. Seed Mixes Applied on Areas <br />Revegetated Sn 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 mix 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 bones, one for large seed end one for <br />small seed. This allowed the drilling of the large seed and broadcasting of the smaller <br />seed. Seed mixes were thus split into large seed and small seed components and bagged <br />separately by the seed dealer. All seeding rates are presented as drilled rates. <br />Seed Mix t - Large Seed Component <br /> Species Drilled Rate <br /> Scientific Name ~ Common Name PLS l65/Ac <br /> Agropvron dasvstachyum v, dasvs to eh yum ihickspike Yheatgrass 2.00 <br /> Agropvron intermedium Intermediate Yheatgrass 1.00 <br /> Agropvron dasvstachyum v. riparium Streembank Yheatgrass 1.00 <br /> Agropvron smithii Yestern Yheatgrass 2.00 <br /> Agropvron inerme Beardless Bluebunch Yheatgrass 2.00 <br />• ~ Agropvron trachvcaulum Slender Yheatgrass 2.00 <br /> Ceratochloa marginate Mountain Brome 2.00 <br /> Dactyl is glomerate Orchardgress 0.50 <br /> EIvmUS cinereus Basin Yildrye 7.00 <br /> Elvmus iunceus Russian Yildrye 7.00 <br /> Fes tuna ovine v. ovine Sheep Fescue 0.50 <br /> Stine viridula Green Needlegrass 2.00 <br /> Cercocarous ledifloius Curliest Mountain Mahogany 0.10 _ <br /> Purshia tridentate Antelope Bitterbrush 0.20 <br /> Atriolex canes ens Fourwing Saltbush 0.13 <br /> Ceratoides Janata Yinterf et 0.07 <br /> Rhus trilobata Skunkbush Sumac 0.08 <br /> Nedysarum boreale Utah Sweetvetch 0.05 <br /> Penstemon stri ct us Rocky Mountain Penstemon 0.05 <br /> Linum lewisii Lewis Flaz 0.05 <br /> Total Large Seed 17.73 PLS lbs/0.c <br /> Seed Mix 1 - Small See d Component <br /> Phteum pretense Timothy 0.10 <br /> Poa ample Big 8tuegrass 0.50 <br /> Poa [omor es sa Canada Bluegrass 0.70 <br /> Astragalus titer Cicer Rilkvetch 1.00 <br /> Medicago setiva Alfalfa 0.50 <br /> Mel ilot us officinalis Yellow Sweetclover 0.50 <br />.
