TheWoWDBSo, having had this quest today, I can confirm it is 6 days between the first and second quests (first was on Wed, 2nd on Mon so 5 if you don't count day one as being the day you got the first Q)

The Smoldering Sprout begins the process of getting the [item=210774] / Ochre Dreamtalon.
It can be found at /way #2200 48.68, 67.90
When you interact with it, and put out the flames, it turns into the [npc=209468]
You'll interact with it one more time to brush it off, at which point it will turn into the [npc=209292], and the first quest, Some Water..., will pop up. This will send you to Professor Ash (maybe a reference to Professor Oak / Ash Ketchum?) in Amirdrassil at /way #2200 49.59, 62.81
It has a 'staggered' progression, so you can't finish the chain all in one go.
The quests below are part of the chain, though I don't think it's all of them. I'll update the chain as I go through it again:
Day 1: Some Water...
A Dash of Minerals...
The Right Food...
A Little Hope is Never Without Worth
Not every fish have bones...

Description
I think we have a chance with this one, {name}. But we'll need to begin revitalizing the soil if we want to see this plant flourish. Head to the Eye of Ysera and harvest fish bones from the Fathomless Lurkers in the depths of the water. They're rich in minerals and degrade easily. It won't replenish the soil on its own, but it's a great start.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
