These are buried in a raised bed in our preschool's garden. They are sharing part of the raised bed with some pumpkin seeds. We live in a hot, dry environment.

No deterioration yet. Some stain spots. Have had some rain in the last week otherwise it's been very dry. Buried in my herb garden.

Essentially intact, some staining.

Very dry. No water or moisture at all.

​

We have had mostly warm weather with some really rainy days.

The experiment is being conducted in my vermicompost bin. The photo I submitted two weeks ago had bad lighting, so I have included the control linen for comparison.

Buried besides our little pond, tons of rain the past few weeks.

We’ve had a lot of rain - the book was packed in mud. The only real visible changes were color and a bit of fabric wear on back cover

No rain here for more than 2 weeks
