Error in an observation of whole plant vegetative phenology #28

Open Rekyt opened 2 years ago

Rekyt commented 2 years ago

While playing around with publicly available BIEN traits I found an error in one observation of the trait "whole plant vegetative phenology" here is the reprex:

  count(trait_value)

Maybe you can correct this in a future BIEN release ;)
