"Alright, so you're all aware by now that we will be planting fire seeds today. Before we get to the fun stuff, does anyone want to hazard a guess as to what care requirements we might need to consider when planting these seeds?" she asked, summoning a small cart of medium sized pots from the corner of the greenhouse.
Sierra nodded back toward the professor, but she really only gave Hollingberry a mere glance. That hadn't been an offer for friendship. Nope, not at all. Well, maybe it'd been a peace offering. Or something. Sierra still hadn't questioned her own motives, really. She could have just wanted extra points, which was a big possibility, too.
Well, everyone was saying something about gloves, so Sierra decided to steer off the track and chime in with something a little different.
"I think we need to be careful where we plant the seeds," she suggested, raising her hand.
"Sure, it's just a little seed now, but one day it'll be a big Fire Seed Bush, so we don't want to plant it next to something that it could catch fire to on down the line somewhere."
Location was everything when it came to plants.

Well, Sierra still thought her location answer was pretty good, but apparently that hadn't been what the professor was asking about. HMPH, Bentley. She'd just try again.
"I was thinking that maybe the fire would get extinguished if we smothered the seed with dirt?" she suggested, raising her hand.
"So maybe there's a different way of planting these seeds, since they're made of fire? Maybe we just leave them wide open to the air rather than covering them with dirt..." She thought for a moment then added,
"Or maybe there's a spell to use that keeps the fire from being extinguished..."
