Abstract/Contents:Seed mixtures (containing 46 species) were sown in spring 1982, with and without beedbed fertilizer, and with different cutting treatments. Seedbed nitrogen led to quicker achievement of good ground cover; it temporarily increased the proportion of grasses in the year of sowing, but thereafter did not affect the balance or number of species. Discrimination in the number or time of cuts could reduce unwanted alien species. The number of species was not affected, but the cuts in the sowing year restricted (depending on cutting date) the flowering of the sown annual species. An appropriate amount of herb and legume seed was approximately 5% by weight of unpelleted seed. Pelleting of herb seed was not advisable; the pelleted species did not establish successfully.
