Never prune a healthy, green leaf that is still functional. These are the regions of the plant that manufacture fruit, and removing them can decrease your strawberry yields. No matter what time of year it is, pruning should be reserved specifically for brown or diseased leaves. Even pruning your plants lightly before this time can significantly decrease fruit yields. The only thing you should do before this time period is remove dead leaves, and only from plants that were planted late, have grown poorly, or endured a cold winter. Never remove healthy and functional leaves, as they are responsible for food production, proper plant growth, and survival. About 1 week following the last harvest, mow the leaves of your June-bearing strawberries 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the plant crowns. After you're done mowing, do not mow again until next year—anything earlier will destroy newer growth.  Use a rake to clean up debris after mowing and prevent diseases. Avoid mowing late-season strawberries that are harvested in the final week of July. If your June-bearing strawberries are lined in 2 foot (0.61 m) matted rows, use a tiller to narrow them down to strips that are approximately 8 inches (20 cm) wide immediately after harvesting their strawberries. Focus on removing older plants and saving younger ones.  Space strips about 3 feet (0.91 m) apart. Late-season strawberries that are harvested in the last week of July typically don't need to be mowed.

One-sentence summary -- Preserve green, healthy leaves throughout the year. Prune your strawberry plants after mid- to late February. Mow June-bearing strawberries after the last harvest. Cut June-bearing matted rows using a rototiller after harvest.

Q: Figure out how easy it is for people to get to the party location, and make travel plans for yourself, the groomsmen and the groom. Check on travel plans for close family members and friends so you can remind them to book – as the best man it’s your responsibility to make sure the core wedding group gets to the party, even though you’re not paying for all of them. For example, if you’ve invited friends or cousins from out of town, or if the party itself is out of town, you’ll need to book flights and remind others to book them too. Large groups need to book in advance for hotels and cars or buses. Consider how many people are in the group, how long you will be staying for, and how often you’ll need transportation as a group.  Transport for large groups can be booked through limo companies, who offer cars, minibuses or larger vehicles to take big groups around town. This is also a good way to ensure nobody needs to drive if you’re going to be drinking. When you book a hotel, consider how far it is from activities, how easy it’s going to be to get from one to the other, and who wants to share rooms. Some activities will not require reservations, such as going to a water park or playing mini golf, but golf, camping, snorkeling, paintballing, going to nightclubs and most other activities require reservations for large groups. Decide when and where you’re going to be eating dinner, and if the party is going to last for more than a day or two where you’ll get breakfast and lunch. Decide if you’re going to eat out or hire a catering company.  Plan food according to your activities and where you’re going to be staying so you have time to do everything. Check if anyone in the group has food allergies or special diet requirements before booking so you can accommodate them. Figure out how much and what kinds of alcohol you need to order in advance and how much you expect to buy at restaurants, clubs and bars, or during activities. Make sure you and others are going to be able to pay in cash or by card for the planned drinks when you get there. Decide if you need a catering company for drinks.  Decide how much beer, wine and spirits you’ll be getting, and the amount of cocktail mixers you’ll need. Check if there’s anyone in your group who isn’t drinking so that you can provide alternatives like soda for them.
A: Make travel plans. Make reservations for accommodation and transport. Make reservations for activities. Plan for food. Plan for alcohol.

Article: Pugs require attention, but should also have a space of their own in which they feel comfortable when you are not home or are otherwise occupied. Provide your pug with an area of its own including a bed and blankets, some toys, and easy access to food and fresh water.  Consider putting the space in the corner of a well-used area in your home. This way, even if you cannot pay attention to your pug for a moment, they do not feel alone. Remember that pugs are sensitive to very hot temperatures and rapid temperature changes. Avoid setting up their space in areas with continued direct sunlight or near heating and cooling vents. Pugs are prone to nervousness and anxiety. You can help them calm down by being consistent in your daily routine. This means scheduling feeding times, walks, play times, and quiet times as close to the same time every day as possible. Your personal schedule may change, but it is important to you try to keep your pug’s schedule the same. Ask a friend or neighbor to help you out with feeding and walks on nights you know you’ll be home late. The pug’s distinct physiology makes them susceptible to a number of health problems, including breathing and joint issues. Because of this, it is important to schedule a vet check as soon as you bring your new pug home.  Your vet will be able to check for common pug health complications and make suggestions for care, such as what to feed your new dog. If you want your pug to be comfortable, you’ll need to learn how it communicates and how to properly respond to it. If you don’t have a lot of experience with dogs, educate yourself on how they communicate so that you can interpret your pug's body language and respond appropriately.  This is especially important if you have children in the house. Teach your children how to recognize when your dog is anxious or fearful, so that they know when to back off. For example, if a guest is petting your pug and its tail is between its legs, it is likely scared and/or uncomfortable. To make your pug comfortable, politely ask your guest to take a couple of steps back, crouch down to the dog’s level, and hold out their hand so that the dog can come to them.
