These are the experimental logs of the seismic botany department at Paintbridged, decicated to discovering what happens to plants in cave-ins.

General experimental set-up

The general arrangement was to take a patch of land with vegetation, mine underneath it, erect a support underneath connected to a lever, channel around the edge of the area, retreat to a safeish distance and pull the lever. The contents of each map tile were recorded before and after the cave-in.
