Output Error, Help Please

dtrumbore88 (7)
Hi, I'm trying to produce an algorithm with branching paths so that the output reads,in the context below, as follows:

Enter the seed color (red or blue):
red
Enter the temperature (F):
65
A mushroom will grow.


However, when I input the temperature at 65, it reads this instead:

Enter the seed color (red or blue):
red
Enter the temperature (F):
65
Enter the soil moisture (wet or dry):


I don't want it to ask me the soil moisture. I was trying to streamline the logic so that it wouldn't ask that redundant question, because if the seed is red and if the temperature is below 75, then it shouldn't ask that question. Can you please help me? The code is written below. Thank you.

Hello, it worked for me.

Are you sure you are running the latest build?

Wow, you're right. It's amazing how many silly little things I tend to overlook. Hopefully, when I get more experienced, they won't be so many. Thanks for your help.
