Not only is it easier to cut branches with sharp tools, it's also better for the tree. A clean cut heals faster, allowing the plant to devote its energy to bearing fruit and resisting disease and insects. To sharpen your tools, use a carborundum stone or diamond file and always take precautions to prevent injuries. All diseased, damaged, or dead branches should be removed to allow the tree to put its energy toward developing healthy branches and fruit. Cut the branches as close to the base as possible. Bag and dispose of these branches to prevent the disease from spreading. To prevent disease from spreading, you should always clean your tools after cutting diseased branches. Use bleach or 10% methylated spirit water to disinfect the tools, then rinse them thoroughly with tap water and dry them with a clean cloth, taking care not to cut yourself. If you use bleach, be sure to dilute it first. Mix 1 part bleach with 9 parts water before disinfecting your shears. Weak branches will be unable to hold the weight of the fruit, so it's best to remove them before they break. Crossed or tangled branches rub together, removing the bark and exposing the wood to diseases and pests. To avoid these issues, make sure to remove them at the base of the branch. Long branches and those that stick out above the canopy can be trimmed. So can those that skim, or almost skim, the ground, as these branches are most susceptible to fungus and disease. Aim to lift the “skirt,” or bottom of the tree, 3.3 feet (1.0 m) from the ground. Make the cuts 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) above the bud for best results. The goal is to create an attractive, balanced tree. While long or unruly branches can be trimmed from the canopy, you should avoid lacing a citrus tree. Lacing means opening up the canopy to allow sunlight to reach the interior of the tree. Some fruit trees, like plum and peach trees, benefit from lacing, but lime trees do not. Let the canopy grow naturally to prevent the tree from getting sunburned.

summary: Sharpen your shears or loppers before pruning the tree. Remove dead, damaged, and diseased branches at their base. Disinfect your shears or loppers after removing diseased branches. Thin out areas with weak, crossed, or tangled branches. Trim branches that go beyond the desired size and shape of the tree. Avoid opening up the tree's canopy.

Think about a sport you’ve always wanted to play, like volleyball, dodgeball, or water polo. Make an effort to improve your athletic skills by joining a local sports club or camp over the summer. If you can’t decide on a sport to learn, choose an activity that best suits your interests. Ask your friends and family members if they’d like to join you if you choose to join a sports club or team! If you prefer team sports, you might like group-oriented sports like beach volleyball, soccer, or tennis. If you’d prefer to play by yourself, try an activity like swimming, diving, or gymnastics. Take a few minutes each day to practice sketching or doodling on your sketch pad. While you might feel discouraged at your lack of progress, keep chipping away hobby. Practice drawing things that are especially difficult for you, and see if you notice an improvement over time!  If you have a laptop or computer, you might want to try digital art instead. For example, if you don’t feel skilled at drawing facial features, spend 1 day working on eyes, then another day working on noses. Don’t be afraid to ask your friends and family for feedback! Search online or look in your local library to find language learning resources. Start with the basics, like simple grammar exercises and basic greetings. Continue practicing a little bit each day, working until you become more comfortable with your language skills!  If you can’t decide on a language to learn, choose one that’s spoken on a widespread level, like Spanish, Hindi, or Mandarin Chinese. Websites like Duolingo, Memrise, and Busuu are great online language learning options. If you know of a friend or family member who speaks the language that you’re learning, ask if you can practice with them. Surprise your friends and family with some delicious treats throughout the summer months. Have a flash preparing cupcakes, pies, cookies, or whatever your heart desires to bake. If you want to prepare a special surprise for your friends and family, try cooking a meal for them in the middle of the summer.  Start with simple recipes before working your way up to complex foods. Ask for permission or assistance if you’re working with hot surfaces in the kitchen. Get in touch with your musical side by renting the musical instrument of your choice. Ask your parents or guardians if they’d be willing to sponsor you for music lessons, or if they’d help you chip in to rent or purchase a fun instrument. Use books and video tutorials to teach yourself how to play basic notes and songs! Only rent or purchase an instrument if you’re prepared to make a commitment to your music.

summary: Practice playing a sport that you’ve never tried before. Work on your drawing skills throughout the summer. Study a foreign language to impress your friends. Hone your cooking and baking skills in the summer months. Teach yourself how to play a musical instrument.

Hives, rash, a swollen face or lips, difficulty breathing, and a light-headed sensation may be signs of a life-threatening allergy. If you notice these symptoms, call for help immediately. This includes a bloody nose, runny nose, crusty nostrils, or loud breathing. Tell your doctor when the symptoms began and how long they lasted for. Other adverse reactions to Flonase include headache, nausea, vomiting, or dizziness. Call your doctor if you notice these symptoms. Flonase may cause serious side effects if taken with certain medications. If your doctor wants to prescribe a new medication, tell them that you are taking Flonase. For example, Flonase may interact with some antifungal drugs or antiviral medication for the treatment of HIV/AIDS. While rare, steroids, like Flonase, may stunt children’s growth. Keep an eye on your child’s growth while they are taking Flonase. If your child stops growing or if you have any concerns, talk to their doctor. Generally, children shouldn't be using Flonase long enough for it to stunt their growth. Talk to your doctor if you're concerned that your child has been on Flonase for an extended period of time.
summary: Get emergency care if you get hives or another allergic reaction. Call your doctor if you have any pain or discharge around the nose. Avoid taking new medications without your doctor's approval. Monitor your child’s growth if they are taking Flonase.
