Although we do not have a set required commitment from our citizen scientists, the data set would greatly benefit if every citizen scientist contributed at least weekly to the database. Additionally, it would help if you looked at the same plants every week (until no longer in bloom); so make a selection of plants when you start and make an effort to revisit them at least weekly, if not more often than that! On the other end of the spectrum, we ask that you do not make observations on the same plot twice within the same day.
