Lewis periodically checked if the soil was warm already by holding his hand - again, ungloved - right above it. If it emitted a little heat already it was warmed up. If not, he still had to wait a little. That was familiar to him too, though, this was something he had to do all the time when cooking. And patience is a virtue, right?
So when he was finally sure the soil had warmed up a little, he put his dragonhide gloves back on, grabbed his wand off tightly in his right hand and made his way back to the front. He was NOT going to touch this fire seed after all. Knowing himself he would probably drop it and set the whole greenhouse on fire. It could happen. That baby house elf had done it too!
Lewis peeked into the silver tin which contained the seeds for a moment before pointing his wand at them. "Wingardium Leviosa." He muttered under his breath and carefully levitated one of the seeds out. There, that was much easier. Slowly with his wand raised and the seed in the air right in front of his nose, he walked back to his seat. Once safely there he carefully lowered his wand and therefore levitated the fire seed into his pot, placing it on top of the warm soil. SPOILER!!: To Do List Quote: 1. Charm pot to heat itself.
2. Fill half of pot up with soil and let it rest for several minutes to warm up.
3. Carefully take a single fire seed with dragon hide gloves and place on top of the soil.
4. Cover fire seed with soil, so that pot is filled. Pat the soil down a little (not too much, you don't want to suffocate it).
5. Water the fire seed with boiling water, without drowning it.
For boiling water, add water (via aguamenti) to the watering can and heat it. This will ensure you 1. control the temperature and 2. don't over water your seed. Use a VERY small amount, simply enough to moisten the soil.
