The following seed mix is recommended for your temporary stockpile sites. These species <br />should establish more rapidly. <br />Temporary <br />Stockpile Grass <br />Seedin : <br />WGCD personnel: Ellen Nelson Date: 14-Oct-08 <br />Landowner Dust & Dirt Excavating <br />Acres to be seeded: 10.00 <br />Seeding Plant on temporary stockpiles of topsoil. Application rate has been doubled <br />for critical area reclamation. Application rate is for drilling the seed. If seed <br />is to be broadcast, the application rate must be doubled again. <br />QVVU RVLAP11nflcnuauvna. <br /> Acres to <br /> PLS/Ac to Rate be <br />Species PLS Rates use 100%a % in mix PLS lb/ac seeded Total PLS <br /> 0/5 <br />5 <br />11 11 <br />0 25 iu.u !

The seedbed shall be well settled and <br />firm, but friable enough that seed can be drilled at -1/2" seeding depth. <br />Soils that have been over-compacted by traffic or equipment, especially <br />when wet, should be tilled to break up root restricting layers, then harrowed, <br />rolled or packed to prepare the required firm seedbed.The seedbed shall be <br />reasonably free of weeds. Control competitive stands of weeds that are <br />present before seeding by shallow tillage or by application of herbicides <br />labeled for this purpose. Fertilizer is not recommended. Mulch with weed- <br />free wheat straw and crimp into place. Control weeds by mowing, do not <br />use herbicides the first year. <br />Please contact us if you have any questions or we can provide any additional information. <br />Ellen Nelson <br />West Greeley Conservation District <br />Technician - Conservation & Education <br />4302 W 9th St Rd <br />Greeley CO 80634 <br />elien.nelson@wgcd.org <br />office: (970) 356-8097 x 3 <br />cell: (970) 518-6867 <br />West Greeley Conservation District rage s or .s <br />\\Server\client files\EskewBrenAEskewBrent090508.doc
