Ga4-2 is located in the 7th period (of 31 ending in a similar manner):

7
Ga4-1 Ga4-2 Ga4-3 Ga4-4

Earlier (at tagata) I had come to believe that the 'fully grown' season illustrated in Ga4-1 was meant to be understood as the season ending at midsummer. Now, however, that is no longer a tenable suggestion, because we know that midsummer is located around Gb1-6 (much further ahead in the calendar):

208 9 * 29
Ga1-26 Gb1-6
210 261
471

From this we learn that tagata glyphs can be determined not only by signs on the tagata glyph itself but alternatively by the following glyph. As will be proven later on in this 'excursion' it is probably the takaure season which is ending in the 7th period.
