Table 3-5. Seed Mixes Applied on Areas <br /> Revegetated in 1985 <br />• <br /> Twq 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 miz 2, while <br /> the majority of the area was seeded with seed mix 1. <br />A new drill seeder 6esed on [he Laird rangeland drill was manufactured for Pea6ady in <br />1985. The drill was constructed with two seed boxes, one for large seed and 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 1 - Large Seed Component <br /> Sveci es Drilled Rate <br /> <br />Scientific Name ~ Common Name PLS lb5/At <br /> <br />Agrovyron dasvstachyum v. dasvs tach yum Thickspike the at grass 2.00 <br />Agroovron intermedium Intermediate Yh ea tgrass 1.00 <br />Agroovron dasystachvum v. ri va rium Streambank Yh eatgrass 1.00 <br />Agroovron smithii Vestern Yh eatgrass 2.00 <br />Agroovron inerme ~ Beardless Bluebunth Yheatgrass 2.00 <br />Agroovron trachvcaulum Slender Yheatg ras5 2.00 <br />Cara tochloa marginata Mountain Brame 2.00 <br />• Dactvlis glomerate Orchardgr ass 0.50 <br />Elvmus cinereus Basin Yildrye 1.00 <br />El mus iunceus Russian Vild rye 1.00 <br />Festuca ovine v. ovine Sheep Fescue 0.50 <br />Stioa viridula Green Meedlegrass 2.00 <br />Cercocarous ledifloius Curlleaf Noun Cain Mahogany 0.10 <br />Purshia tridents [a Antelope Bitt erbrush 0.20 <br />Atriolex canescens Faurwing Saltbush 0.13 <br />Ceratoides Janata Yinte rf et 0.07 <br />Rhus trilohata Skunkbush Sumac 0.08 <br />Nedvsarum boreale Utah Sweetvetch 0.05 <br />Penstemon strictus Rocky Mountain Penstemon 0.05 <br />Linum lewisii ~ Levis Flax 0.05 <br />Total Large Seed 17.73 PLS Lbs/Ac <br />Seed Mix 1 - Small Seed Component <br /> Phleum Dratense Timothy 0.10 <br /> Poa emofa Big 8lueg rass 0.50 <br /> Poa comvressa Canada Bluegrass 0.10 <br /> Astragalus titer Liter Milkvetch 1.00 <br /> Medicego saliva Alfalfa 0.50 <br /> Melilotus of}icinalis Yellow swe etcl over 0.50 <br /> Achilles lanulose Vestern yarrow 0.05 <br />• <br /> 3-5 <br />
