STATUS: A second set of hands has checked the count and recorded where the methods differ. The current rule remains in force at the Deep Garden terraces beneath the south cistern.
RECORD: The bed rotation map and the growers’ sample notes. This file counts 60 beds showing the same pale edge on their leaves; the prior count was 62.
DISPUTE: Growers see the pattern spreading along one trench; the garden office says the samples do not yet distinguish rot from mineral stress.
WHY IT MATTERS: The decision concerns whether the affected beds should be isolated before the next communal harvest. The current count does not settle how the rule should allocate the cost.
NEXT: The soil readers will take paired samples from both sides of the trench. The clerk has marked the file GARDEN-ROT-01 for the next public review.
