Notes
Buried some seeds, will select afterward
2021-04-17 : First seedlings appearing (survived freeze). Will transplant some on nearby grounds and keep only one.
2021-04-21 : Thinned to one seedling. Planted remaining one in public allotment
2021-04-26 : True leaves appearing.
2021-05-11 : Suddenly became soft. Not sure of the cause, probably the lack of sun or high humidity of the soil those last few day as temperatures seem fine.
2021-05-20 : Seedling looks back to life, but suffers from plant rust. Pruning may be required.
2021-05-28 : Definitely dead.
