SPOILER!!: Auggie's Herbology Notes
Harvesting Puffapod Seeds

[1] Put on your protective gear.
[2] Using the scalpel make an incision down the side of the pod, from top to bottom.
[3] Insert your hand into the incision and remove the seeds from the membrane. (You should get around 4 or 5)
[4] Collect the seeds into the bags provided, remove the remaining membrane from the plant by simply pulling it off the stem and place it in the compost heap.
[5] Tidy up your work space and wait for further instructions.

You will need: Scalpel, apron, latex gloves, calico bag.


Walking over to the side of the Greenhouse that was home to the matured Puffapod plants wasn't too hard of a task in the crowded classroom setting, for most of the people were still getting their protective gear on. After a few seconds of looking the plants over, August found a nice, big, pink Puffapod membrane sitting next to a stalk not too far from him.

Quickly the boy snatched it up in his gloved hands and, using his scapel, slowly sliced an incision down it's side. Ew...now to just harvest the seeds or beans, whichever they are.
