Where plant turns up in the game

plant is the word under test in two puzzles, spread across two difficulty tiers. It also sits on the board as one of the three wrong tiles in two other puzzles, where the answer is a different word entirely.

The puzzles where plant is the trap

  • worksnoun, Tier 2, Treeline. The answer there is deeds, in the sense "performance of moral or religious acts", with plant sitting one tile away.
  • engraveverb, Tier 4, High Camp. The answer there is grave, in the sense "carve, cut, or etch into a material or surface", so plant is there to be ruled out.
