Article: In most climates, you'll need to plant your ginger in the early spring or summer. This gives the plant plenty of opportunities to absorb the heat and develop an extensive root system. Then, the plant will be mature and ready to remove from the ground by the middle or end of the fall months. A good growing estimate is that your plants will start to develop roots after 2 months. They can be harvested at any stage of maturity, but they are best after 8-10 months. Most ginger varieties will be mature and ready to harvest after they've completed a flowering cycle. You'll notice that the flowers will die off and fall away from the plant. Then, the leaves will dry out and do the same. Different varieties of ginger produce flowers of varying colors. Use a trowel and your hands to dig 2 to 4 inches (5.1 to 10.2 cm) to the side of the sprouts in a circle. Keep digging down until you reach the rhizome.  The rhizome should be pretty easy to spot in the soil, as it will appear white or a light brown against the darker color of the dirt. Most ginger rhizomes sit about 2 to 4 inches (5.1 to 10.2 cm) deep, so you won't have to dig for very long. Once you've exposed the root system, use your trowel to gently leverage the entire plant out of the ground. If you happen to break apart pieces of the root when pulling upwards, it's okay. Use your trowel to dig those broken sections out of the soil. Grab and firmly pull the green shoots of the plant to help you remove it from the dirt. Pick a spot 2 to 4 inches (5.1 to 10.2 cm) away from the green shoots and make a small hole 2 to 4 inches (5.1 to 10.2 cm) down. Look for a rhizome while you are digging and if you locate one, use your trowel to slice off an end piece. Then, refill your hole with dirt and the ginger will continue to mature and grow.  This is a great way to quickly and cleanly get ginger for a meal. It only takes minutes and doesn't harm the plant. If you don't find a rhizome with your initial small hole, dig slightly to one side or another.

Choose stilettos in your size and put them on. Try to raise your heels up 1 inch (2.5 cm). You should be able to do this comfortably if the shoes fit properly. Your toes shouldn't feel pinched and there should be no gap between the arch of the shoe and your feet. If you're buying stilettos, place them on a flat surface and tap the sides. The shoes shouldn't wobble or fall over. Consider purchasing stilettos made of a material, such as leather, that will stretch slightly. Before you break in a new pair of stilettos or while you're getting used to walking in your pair, place toe gels, moleskin insoles, arch supports, heel pads, or blister strips into the shoes. These will cushion your feet and prevent rubbing that could cause painful calluses. If you're not sure where to put insoles or supports, wear the stilettos for about 5 minutes and pay attention to wear the shoes are hurting your feet. Use duct or medical tape to wrap your third and fourth toes together. This will reduce the amount of pressure on the nerve between these two toes. Remove the tape when you take your stilettos off and stretch your toes. It's easy to think that once you get used to wearing high heels, you can purchase a new pair of stilettos and wear them right out. Since each pair of shoes is different, your feet need a chance to adjust to the material, fit, and feel of the shoes. Wear them around the house until they feel comfortable. Then you can wear them out. It's fine to wear stilettos on carpet or rugs in your house. The point is to get your feet used to how the shoes feel. If you're planning on wearing stilettos to the office or a social event, have a comfortable pair of shoes ready to change into if your feet start hurting. You can also take breaks and change back into your stilettos throughout the day. For example, commute in comfortable flats and change into stilettos when you arrive at the event or office. Rest your feet after wearing stilettos. Fill a small basin or bath with water and dissolve some Epsom salt in it. Then soak your feet for up to 20 minutes. Once you get your feet out of the water, dry them and massage moisturizer into your feet. To massage your feet, use your thumbs to rub the balls of your feet using a circular motion. Then massage towards the heels of your feet. Do this as much as you like.
