• Table 3-5. Seed Mixes Applied on Arees <br />Revegetated in 1985 <br />U <br />r, <br />L_J <br />Two seed mixes 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 boxes, one for large seed and one for <br />smell 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 end bagged <br />sepe retely by the seed dealer. All seeding rates ere presented as drilled rates. <br />Seed Mix 1 - Large Seed Component <br />Species Drilled Rate <br />Scientific Name Common Name PLS lbsJAc <br />Aaroovron dasvstachvum v, dasvstachvum Thickspike Yheetgrass 2.00 <br />Aaroovron intermedium Intermediate Yheetgrass 1.00 <br />Aaroovron desvstachvum v. riDarium Streambank Wheatgrass 1.00 <br />AarODYrOn smithii Western Wheetgrass 2.00 <br />AcroDVron inerme Beardless Bluebunch Yheetgrass 2.00 <br />Aaroovron trachviceulum Slender Yheetgrass 2.00 <br />Ceretochloa marcineta Mountain Brome 2.00 <br />Dactvlis glomerate Ortherdgrass 0.50 <br />Elvmus cinereus Basin Yildrye 1.00 <br />Elvmus junceus Russian Vildrye 1.00 <br />Festuca ovine v. ovine Sheep Fescue 0.50 <br />Sti a viridula Green Needlegrass 2.00 <br />Cercocarous ledifloius Curlleaf Mountain Mahogany 0.10 <br />Purshia tridentate Antelope Bitterbrush 0.20 <br />Atri Dl ex canescens Fourwing Seltbush 0.13 <br />Ceretoides lanate Yin[erf et 0.07 <br />Rhus trilobite Skunkbuah Sumac 0.08 <br />Ned sv arum bo reele Utah Sweetvetch 0.05 <br />Penstemon strictus Rocky Mountain Penstemon 0.05 <br />Linum lewisii Lewic Flax 0_05 <br /> Total Large Seed 17.73 PLS lbs/Ac <br />Seed Mix 1 Small Seed Component <br />Phleum Dratense <br />Poe ample <br />Poe comoressa <br />Astra9elus titer <br />Medicaao sativa <br />Melilotus officinelis <br />Achilles lenulosa <br />Timothy 0.10 <br />Big Bluegrass 0.50 <br />Canada Bluegrass 0.10 <br />Cicer Milkvetch 1.00 <br />Alfalfa 0.50 <br />Yellow Swee tc lover 0.50 <br />Vestern Yarrow 0.05 <br />3-5 <br />
