Final Methods
Two separate seed mixes were created for the different soil types of the project areas. The seed was mixed through the Great Basin Warehouse and hauled to the project site. A single rangeland drill was pulled by a tractor over the two project areas with the seeding depth set for the different soil types to allow for optimal opportunity for the seed to establish and germinate.
*
Project Narrative
The two project locations were chosen from previously treated fire scars that were not as successful at recovery as we would have liked. The drought that followed in the the years after the original reseeding allowed for difficult seed germination and soil stabilization. The sites have been monitored for multiple years without much success of recovery. The plan was to develop seed mixes that would help with stabilization while also helping to bring in desirable plant species.
*
Future Management
The areas will be rested for at least two growing seasons. Monitoring will occur on the two treatment sites to better evaluate the stabilization and recovery of the sites. More years of rest will occur if the monitoring of the sites dictates a need and a relative success of the reseeding effort.
