Field notes

Compare follow-up, then compare percentages

A larger recorded percentage is not automatically a better seed lot.

Put the observation span in view

A trial observed through day 8 has had a different recorded follow-up from a trial last visited on day 4. The comparison table prints each trial's last observed day and flags unequal follow-up. It does not rank the samples or calculate statistical significance.

Check rules and conditions

Matching counting-rule text and follow-up days are useful checks, but cannot certify a fair experiment. Sample selection, species, conditions and visit frequency may differ. The app compares entered labels and dates only. A small home observation is not a certified seed test or proof of a treatment effect.

Closing an observation

Mark a trial closed when you decide to stop recording. This does not convert unrecorded seeds into failed or dead seeds. Closed trials remain in reports and can be reopened through trial settings before observations are changed.

Take a recoverable copy

JSON preserves editable trials, notes and observations. CSV contains all trial records, including a clearly labelled row for trials with no observations. The selected-trial SVG is a static chart, not an editable backup. Downloads are produced locally and may contain your labels and notes.

There is no autosave or account. Save JSON before closing or refreshing the tab. Undo keeps the last 30 saved states in memory, but it is not a permanent backup. Review the exported files before sharing them with another person or service.
