"Is it OK to add a comment or a data field entry if I learned it by reading books, magazines, or other online sources?"
"Is it usefull to enter the same comment to many species within a genus?" For example, pre-soaking Salvia seeds really speeds up sprouting and makes a higher % oif seeds sprout. However, that one comment could be added to hundreds of sp3ecies or cultivars. Maybe it is too generic to be added at all.

I think that's important- how a plant performs for real gardeners in their yards. A catalog can say or print about anything, a gardener's experience is probably more honest and realistic.
