Phoebe
Phoebe took a few deep breaths to steady herself, her feelings of worthlessness and stupidity all consuming. But if she focused on it, then what? She closed her eyes and wiped them once more, determined to not let any more tears fall. She couldn't know what she didn't know and when it came to this arena - trying to find ways to stop diseases in plants (which she didn't specialize in) using non-herbal remedies (which she didn't specialize in) at a cellular level (which she had known existed for but a few months) - there was a lot she didn't know.
"I suppose, but I was thinking more about the animals that survive off the plants in the forest eating those that had the applied treatment. And that's how it was tested, applying the concoction to the healthy plant sample and then introducing a blighted sample. In comparison to the plant without the treatment, it significantly slowed the spread from one to the other; it almost took twice as long." she said more directly.
"If it's no good then I will try again. I just thought that in the areas where the blight is particularly bad this might help slow it down for the time being." Until something better was found. Until a stronger medicine was developed. Just something to help the Greatwood fight back for a little longer.
