 We now spell this out for some small values of $k$. 
-For $k=0$, the $0$-blob group is simply linear combinations of string diagrams on $W$. 
+For $k=0$, the $0$-blob group is simply linear combinations of fields (string diagrams) on $W$. 
 For $k=1$, a generator consists of a field on $W$ and a ball, such that the restriction of the field to that ball is a null field. 
 The differential simply forgets the ball. 
 Thus we see that $H_0$ of the blob complex is the quotient of fields by fields which are null on some ball.
