Ian grabbed up a piece of parchment when he was finished and walked from plant to plant that he had worked on. He copied down the notes to prepare his log.

Tinker's Log (stardate 2085.01.14)
The Tinker, Ian variety has observed locally produced vegetation and noted some strange symptoms and growth patterns. The young Hufflepuff student performed the following actions and logged them for further study by qualified herbologists aboard ship.
Plant 1 – Elephant ear plant - Yellowing leaves. Trimmed the dying leaves, checked soil and added some water.
Plant 2 – Cactus - Undersized cactus, used Herbivicus
Plant 3 – Buttercup Plant looked a bit undernourished and lacking of light. Added some fertilizer and placed in a nice sunny space.
Tinker, 4th year type feels this is an adequate sample size to predict healthy growth patterns and possible need for preventative measures to ensure an adequate food supply for follow-on explorers.
Tinker's log for this stardate is complete.
Ian was really, really bored...and he wanted a nap.
