Lewis eyed the fire seed for a moment, just lying there on top of the soil. So far he hadn't done that badly, had he? Hey, he had a pot, he had some soil in it AND he had a seed too. What more could they want from him? He was going to be brilliant in this class!
Except for this next step. He hated instructions like these. How was he supposed to know what 'too much' was? Lewis dug around in the soil next to the seed a little until he had a handful of it in his glove-covered hand and carefully spread it over the seed. Okay, it was now lightly covered, he could still see it if he closely enough - and probably even better without the goggles. How much soil should be on top of the seed exactly? He really wasn't good at this kind of guessing and assuming when it came to plants. Well, not only when it came to plants.
With a small sigh, Lewis glanced around the room for a moment before digging into the fresh soil some more, putting it on top of the seed until there was a small heap of of soil covering the seed. Okay, That should be sufficient right? Now, onto the patting. Erm. He reached out and lightly patted the soil over and around the seed so smoothed out a little and became hard-ish. Huh..
Had he done this right? 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.
