peer agreement (net): +2the top part of every seed was cut off Explanation: This is literal, but it makes sense to me. A method to help the seeds sprout. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2008-09-24 20:10:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The second half of the sentence may be refering to cutting the plant itself, to reproduce conditions they would have in the wild - being eaten, or broken by winds. |
