View Tech Sheet Planting Guide: Sodar should be seeded with a drill at a depth of ½ inch or less on medium to fine textured soils and 1 inch or less on coarse textured soils. The seeding rate is 8 - 12 pounds per acre. If used as a component of a mix, adjust to percent of mix desired. For mined lands and other harsh critical areas, double the seeding rate. For a turf application, Sodar should be planted at 24 - 30 pounds per acre. Mulching and light irrigation are beneficial for stand establishment.
