Seren smiled, "Yes, but powerful in what way?" ... though that was somewhat self-explanatory.

EWWWW!

This couldn't get any more disgusting. And smelly.

Ah, the Mooncalf dung. She remembered perfectly that smell. Why did they use it? "Because it's more... special?" Helena suggested with her hand raised.
"Special... yes it is special... but why?"
Seren could see on the girls face that she wasn't ammused by the topic thus far.. it always ammused her how students didn't like dung.

SPOILER!!: Strong answers

"Yes, thats exactly right."
“Mooncalf dung is re-known for its effects on magical plants. It helps plants grow stronger and faster, which is good when you’re a little pressed for time. Generally speaking Mooncalf dung is used quite sparingly, or as a solution. It’s also particularly good to use on cuttings as it increases the speed of root growth, which is essential for the plants survival.”

Flicking her wand once more the Mooncalf dung disappeared... and the table was clear again.

“Now before we go onto the practical portion of our lesson today, there are two more things we need to cover. Firstly... watering.”

Seren peered along the table at the students faces. They should know this by now... but there were always a few that were clueless.
“What are the dangers of over-water or under-watering a plant?” she asked... “And are the effects reversible?”

OOC: I will post the next part of the lesson- which is leading into the practical portion- in approximately 7-8 hours.
