Eleven mulch treatments were evaluated during the fall of 1966 on a 2:1 northeast‐facing fill slope seeded to smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.). Mulch materials included wood cellulose fiber, excelsior, jute netting, emulsifiable asphalt used separately and as an anchorage for corncobs, woodchips, prairie hay, and fiberglass. Plots protected with an excelsior mat yielded the best seedling grass.
Eight mulch treatments were evaluated on a 2:1 east‐facing fill slope during the fall of 1967. Mulch materials included an emulsifiable polymer, compost, wood cellulose, jute netting, excelsior, and asphalt‐anchored mulches of excelsior, woodshavings, and bark dust. Plots protected with an excelsior mat or jute netting yielded the best seedling grass.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
