Over the long haul we have found that 2500 lbs of wood mulch per acre and 7 lbs of seed per 1000 sq ft seem to be that magic number for new seeding. Your unit is also good for holding down straw mulch by using tack and a bale or two of mulch for color (shows where you applied tacking agent). If you find yourself doing steep slopes, BFM (bonded fiber matrix) shot at 3000 to 4500 lbs per acre will get things growing even on the steepest slopes.
Finn additives HydroMax is one that we used a lot and found that it did increase germination during stress periods and produced a better stand of grass in less time, tho cost can be a factor. With your machine you should be able to get 200 to 225 lbs of mulch per tank. The addition of the newer tacks (Slicky- Sticky) makes things go much easier doing heavy mulch loads thru hose or tower.
