Removing her gloves, Ira checked her soil in the pot. It felt warm enough. I think this is fine.. she thought to herself and proceeded to the next step. What was it? She looked over in her journal. Now to plant a seed.

Wearing her gloves again, Ira went to where Professor Bentley was with the bottle of fire seeds. She picked one and after inspecting if it was looking okay, took a single fire seed and went back to her pot. She carefully and slowly placed it on top of soil in her.

Then she updated her journal:
SPOILER!!: Ira's Journal
Planting Fire Seeds
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.
