salient part of this vital news item is at the very end…

no brains

– Closely related to vertebrates, in their larval stage sea squirts look like tadpoles and swim around

– But once they find an appropriate rock to attach to, they metamorphose into something resembling a brightly-coloured vegetable

unfortunately blodgett’s peaceful agrarian existence recently disrupted by both planned and unplanned maintenance.

all back to normal now though, and grains have been harvested! turns out they were barley.
will probably reattempt this growing with more accurate guidelines. overall yield almost exactly what blodgett planted! rinse and repeat.

in particular, blodgett will plant grains less densely: more germinated than expected, much fell over due to combined efforts of heavy rain and neighbourhood cat, and could not stand up again.
