5. SEEDING <br /> iAfter the surface is scarified, the correct amount of seed is broad- <br /> cast by hand as evenly as possible on each plot, being careful to <br /> leave 5 feet plus or minus between plots with no seed. <br /> 6. MULCHING <br /> Two tons of hay or straw will be broadcast per acre over the seed, <br /> again, with care not to get hay on the 5-foot barrier between plots. <br /> We do not require new hay or straw. Old (rained-on) hay is quite a <br /> bit cheaper and runs from 30 to 40 bales per ton as it is dried out <br /> and lighter (roughly 50 lbs/bale instead of 70 lbs.) . At 30 bales/ <br /> ton about 6 or 7 bales should be broadcast on each plot. <br /> 7. NETTING <br /> In the warehouse there are two rolls of Conwed plastic netting and two <br /> boxes of staples. This netting comes in rolls 721 x 25001 . The <br /> staples are 611, 11 gauge, 1000/box. <br /> Care must be taken in handling the netting. A pipe should be placed <br /> inside the roll and attached to a rope to lower and raise the netting <br /> as it is paid out over the ground. The netting should be placed 7 <br /> panels wide per plot with 10" + overlap. Approximately 200 staples <br /> should be used for each 50 x 100 plot, or about 5' apart in every <br /> direction. Extra staples or rocks, etc. should be placed at the top <br /> . of each plot, to secure the top edge. <br /> Wes Huff should supervise the complete procedure at each site to <br /> ensure quality control. <br /> • <br />
