Default Post #4 Covering the seed
Trencher for Life||Avril Lavigne|| Ni hen piao liang (You're very beautiful)

Violet scooped up the soil and poured it into her pot to until it covered her seed. How much was enough? She kept pouring more until the soil reached almost to the brim. Violet was getting worried. Did she put too much soil in? Violet hoped not and continued to pat the soil. How much was not too much patting? Sigh. She just needed to relax and do it step by step. Gently.

She quickly crossed off the step and went to get a watering can for the last step which was to water the plant.

Text Cut: Violet's notes
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.
