The initial sample collection went well and I had no difficulties implementing the sample strategy. The data I collected was very surprising as two of the four trees had buds and those trees were at opposite ends of the courtyard. I expected to collect similar data from trees at similar point in the courtyard, where that was not the case. Tree four had buds which is at the highest point in the courtyard and tree three had buds which is at the lowest point. I plan to continue sampling the trees based on the same approach I used in my initial data collection. Sample collection was easy and I feel like it was effective use of my time.
