Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Test the soil Adjust the pH with eggshells or coffee so it's between 6.2 and 6.8. Mix in a natural source of nitrogen into the soil if needed. Raise the phosphorus content by adding bone meal to the soil. Increase the levels of potassium with wood ash or granite dust. Place any nutrients you add into the top 6 inches (15 cm) of soil. Mix in an artificial fertilizer for an easy way to increase the nutrient content. Add compost to help the soil retain moisture and nutrients.

Answer: to find its nutrient and pH levels. Knowing the pH level of your soil is important because different plants thrive under different pH levels. It's also helpful for you to know the nutrient levels so you know what you need to add to the soil to help the tomato plants thrive. Use a commercial testing kit to collect and test a sample of the soil where you plan to plant your tomatoes.  Tomatoes grow best in slightly acidic soil, with the optimum pH level being between 6.2 and 6.8. Soil that falls below 6.0 is too acidic for tomato plants to thrive. An even balance of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium is necessary for your tomato plants to produce lots of healthy fruit. Too much of 1 nutrient can affect the health of your tomato plants. If the pH of your soil is below 6.2, mix in crushed eggshells at a ratio of 1 pound (0.45 kg) for every 100 square feet (9.3 m2). For soil that has a pH above 6.8, you need to make it more acidic. Mix together equal parts water and cold coffee in a water can and apply it to the soil.  For example, if you have a tomato garden that is about 20 square feet (1.9 m2), then mix in about .2 pounds (0.091 kg) of eggshells. Turn the soil over and mix it up after you apply the eggshells or coffee mixture. Retest the soil to see if the pH level is between 6.2 and 6.8 before you plant your tomato plants. Your soil needs to have an even ratio of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus for your tomato plants. If you have a low amount of nitrogen, add in a natural source, then retest the soil to make sure the levels are even. Combine the nitrogen source with the top layer of soil and compost by mixing it together with a shovel.  Natural sources of nitrogen include alfalfa meal, blood meal, feather meal, and fish meal. You can also add artificial nitrogen fertilizers like ammonium nitrate or ammonium sulfate. Bone meal is a great organic source of phosphorus that you can add to your soil raise the levels of that nutrient. Mix in the bone meal with the soil then retest it to make sure the levels are even with the nitrogen and potassium levels.  Artificial phosphorus fertilizers include rock phosphate and superphosphate. You can find bone meal and phosphorus fertilizers at garden supply stores, nurseries, and online. If you need to elevate your potassium levels so they're even with the levels of nitrogen and phosphorus in the soil, add some wood ash or granite dust and mix it in with the top layer of soil. After you combine it with the soil, retest it to make sure the levels are even.  You can use potassium sulfate or rock sand as artificial fertilizers that will raise the potassium content of your soil. Find wood ash, granite dust, or artificial potassium fertilizers at local nurseries, home improvement stores, or online. No matter what fertilizers or nutrients you plan to add to your soil to prepare it for tomato plants, you need to add them to the top layer of the soil that you tilled for your garden. Mix in the compost or nutrients well with the soil so the roots of the tomato plants can start to absorb them as soon as you plant them. Turn the dirt over with your shovel to help combine the nutrients, compost, and soil. If your soil is lacking in nutrients, you can add a continuous-release fertilizer that will provide the nutrients your tomato plants need. Artificial fertilizers are less natural and organic, but they quickly raise the nutrient content of your soil. Mix in the fertilizer with the top layer of soil and compost.  Choose a fertilizer that has an even ratio of potassium, phosphorus, and nitrogen for your tomato plants. You can find fertilizers at garden supply stores, plant nurseries, or online. Popular continuous-release fertilizers include Miracle-Gro, Tomato-tone, and Fox Farm Tiger Bloom. Add the artificial fertilizer according to the directions on the packaging. Different fertilizers have different concentrations and application methods. The compost will add a small but continuous amount of nutrients and will help the soil hold water and keep the roots from drying out. Cover the top of the soil with a 1 inch (2.5 cm) layer of compost, then mix it into the soil.  Compost will also help any fertilizer that you add stay in the soil until it's needed by your tomato plants. You can find compost at garden supply stores, nurseries, or online.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a compelling concept. Create your characters. Draw up a couple of test comics. Get some feedback. Decide on an update schedule.

Answer: For many webcomics, this means having a good plot. Your webcomic doesn't have to have a plot, but having one will make it easier to come up with ideas and stay motivated.  Use tools like Monomyth and Act Structure to make sure that your story has good pacing and that your readers will be able to connect with the story. Choosing some themes and issues to cover can also help. Remember the most common writing advice: write what you know! It's good advice! This doesn't necessarily mean that you should only write about your life or make realistic fiction style stories. It just means that you'll usually write best when you write about overall experiences and emotions that you know about. Create some primary and secondary characters, if your comic will have regular characters. Draw a character sheet for them so that you're sure to stay consistent with their look. Then write yourself a "cheat sheet" of their character history, personality, flaws, and other details. Remember that characters that lean more heavily on the flawed side will give you more to work with as writer and develop over time. Balance is important, but you need to give yourself wiggle room! Write three or more test comics. They should incorporate all your main characters (if you have them) and be in the style you want your webcomic to be. Don't make it very quick and sketchy or very careful and precise if this isn't how all the comics will be done. The goal here is for you to get an idea about how long it takes you to make a comic and learn how you might streamline the process. You might end up deciding that you need a simpler style, less coloring, or other changes. Show them to your friends to review. If you don't think your friends will be a very reliable source, try to find a chat-room or some online friends to send them to. You'll want to understand what's good about your comics and what things you need to do to improve. Ask for a good amount of detailed feedback on them, not just an "I like it!" or "It's funny!".  Don't worry about catering to what every single person says. You want to deal with what the most common complaints are. Do people dislike your main character? Are your jokes funny? Is your drawing style a bit slapdash? Work on things like this before you complete your final comics. You'll want to have a regular schedule that you can update on and then stick to that schedule. This is so your readers will know when to come looking for a new strip. Having am irregular publishing schedule is a good way too lose your readers and deter new ones. An update schedule will also help motivate you to work on your comic, as working on it as a habit will help you overcome laziness and procrastination.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Determine if there are any pre-requisites. Obtain the appropriate eviction forms. Make sure your eviction papers are in order. Decide who will be serving the tenant. Learn the permissible times to deliver the papers.

Answer:
Landlord-tenant eviction proceedings are governed by the laws of each state, so you have to be sure you’ve met all your state’s requirements before serving eviction papers.  Check with your local landlord-tenant court—either in person or online at the court’s website—for instructions on handling an eviction, including any notices you may have to give the tenant before serving eviction papers. An example of a pre-requisite is a Notice to Cure, in New York. This has to be served on a tenant before serving an eviction notice. It tells the tenant what he or she did wrong, and provides for a ten-day period to correct the problem.) It depends on your state, but you'll commonly find the eviction notice referred to as a Notice to Quit, Notice to Vacate, or Notice of Termination. This is normally combined with a Demand for Possession (of the premises). You can usually get these forms from the court's website or at the court clerk's office. Before serving the papers on the tenant, make sure the contents of the notice completely comply with the form's instructions. Again, the needed information will depend on your state's laws, but some common information to include is:  The full name of the tenant or tenants. (You want to be sure everyone you’re seeking to evict is on the notice.) The date by which you want the tenant to leave the property. The reason for the notice (such as failure to pay rent or breaching specific terms of a lease). The date by which the tenant must cure (remedy) the problem in order to avoid eviction. An indication that you intend to hold the tenant responsible for any current and future rent or other fees due, under the terms of the tenancy. Someone has to deliver the eviction notice to the tenant. In many—if not most—cases, the landlord is permitted to do this. However, some states (like New York) prohibit the landlord from serving papers.  Find out what’s permitted in your state. If you’re allowed to serve the papers yourself and you choose that option, always bring a witness to corroborate exactly what you did. You might also think about having a friend or family member (over the age of 18) deliver the papers, again if your state allows it. Note that normally this person can’t be involved in the lawsuit.  Consider using a professional process (legal papers) server. Many times these are personnel in the local Sheriff’s or Marshall’s office. You can also use a private process server, if your state approves of that. Many states will limit the time of day during which you can serve papers on a tenant (such as 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.), as well as prohibiting serving papers on particular days, like Sundays or certain holidays.
