Resisting the urge to smirk, Seren simply nodded. "Well that is a good idea... I was asking more in terms of caring for the plant though."

"Right so aside from the common sense, follow the classroom rules regarding safety... gloves, goggles etc. there are a number of things we need to consider when planting fire seeds. They are not particularly high maintenance, but there are a few crucial things to remember. The first, is temperature. You do NOT want to extinguish your seed using the Glacius Charm or by drowning it in cold water. Secondly, fire seeds do not require much, if any nourishment... so fertilising is not required." Seren paused to let this information sink in and plant themselves in the students minds. She had a feeling some of them would be pleased to know there wouldn't be any dung involved this lesson.

"Now take a moment to read and note down these instructions, you'll need them soon enough," she said stepping to the side to let the light from the torches shine onto the blackboard.



After waiting a short while for students to write down these notes, Seren stepped forward to continue the lesson.

"Now before I get you to start the process, you first need to know how to perform the Chaudensis Charm. This will charm the pot to heat itself."

"Please DO NOT take out your wands just yet, I want you to practice the incantantion without the risk of blowing something up first..." she said eyeballing them all.

"Repeat after me... Chaudensis... Chaw-den-sis..."
Seren observed and listened as the students practiced the incantation.[QUOTE]


Selina smiled at Professor Bentley when she took note of the small smirk tugging at the Head of her House's lips. Although her answer was more common sense she stood by her response. Personal health was an important branch of herbology. Oh yeah, she knew her stuff.

When the blackboard appeared with notes Selina took several seconds reading the directions. Her blue eyes flickered back up to Bentley when the woman talked about blowing things up. The fourth year was almost certain that she would not blow something up in this class. The only class that she did that on a normal basis was, well, potions.

With no wand she repeated, "Chaudensis...CHAUdensis... chauDENSIS.... chaudensis."
