Some birthdays are more culturally significant than others. If you know someone who's having a particularly significant birthday, such as turning 18 or 21, you may want to congratulate them specifically for reaching that milestone age. Use either alles Gute zum Geburtstag or Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, placing the word for the number before the word Geburtstag. Some significant ages are:  16th birthday: sechzehnte Geburtstag  18th birthday: achtzehnte Geburtstag  21st birthday: einundzwanzigste Geburtstag  30th birthday: dreißigste Geburtstag  40th birthday: vierzigste Geburtstag This phrase means "much health, happiness, and contentment for the birthday child." While it is most frequently used among family members and close friends, it can provide a sense of warmth and good cheer to someone who's not feeling so excited about their birthday.  Pronounce the phrase FEE-ehl GEHS-oond-hight, gleuk uhnd TSOO-freed-ehn-hight dehm geh-BUHRT-stahg-skihnd. The word Glück can be used to mean happiness or luck, depending on the context. In birthday wishes, it frequently means both. You can also say Viel Glück zum Geburtstag. The word should be fairly easy for English-speakers to remember – just think of it as the words "good luck" smashed together. Alles Gute zum Geburtstag is fine for a friend or acquaintance, but for a significant other or close relative, you may want to use something more heartfelt. As in English, there are many German birthday phrases that capture the love you feel for the person celebrating. Some more personal birthday greetings are:   Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, which means "heartfelt congratulations on your birthday"  Alles Liebe zum Geburtstag, which means "much love on your birthday"  Von Herzen alles Gute zum Geburtstag, which means, "from the heart, all the best on your birthday" The phrase es lebe das Geburtstagskind (ehs LEH-beh dahs geh-BUHRT-stahg-skihnd) literally means "long live the birthday child." This phrase is more commonly used with little kids, but may also be used among close friends and a bright, joking manner. This phrase is more likely to be used by an older person wishing a happy birthday to someone younger. If you use the phrase for someone who is older than you, they might consider it rude or mean-spirited. Many birthday wishes are warm and friendly. However, in some relationships, more formality is required. This is especially true if you're writing the phrase in a birthday card rather than saying it aloud. To communicate respect and honor while still wishing someone a happy birthday, you might say Ich wünsche Ihnen ein gesundes und erfolgreiches neues Lebensjahr!  The phrase, pronounced ich WEUN-sheh IGHN-ehn ighn geh-SOON-dehs uhnd EHR-fohl-grighsh-ehs NOY-ehs LEHB-ehns-yahr, means "I wish you a healthy and prosperous new year of life." Note that the phrase uses the formal form of the German second-person pronoun, Ihnen. The formal second-person pronoun is always capitalized. If you're writing out your birthday wishes, rather than simply saying them out loud, you may want to try something more elaborate than the basic greeting. Some extended birthday wishes you might write include:   Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag, für einen guten Freund, which means "happy birthday to a lovely friend"  Man wird nicht älter, sondern besser, which means "you don't get older, just better"  Auf dass Dein Tag mit Liebe und Freude erfüllt ist, which means "may your day be filled with love and happiness."

summary: Add the person's age for significant birthdays. Comfort someone concerned about aging with Viel Gesundheit, Glück und Zufriedenheit dem Geburtstagskind. Try more personal birthday greetings with someone you love. Congratulate a birthday child with Es lebe das Geburtstagskind! Send more formal wishes when appropriate. Add creative birthday wishes to a card or letter.

Regular rainfall is usually sufficient, but if the season is a dry one, water the chickpeas twice a week during the flowering and pod formation stages.  Avoid "overhead" watering. Water can get on the flowers and pods, causing them to break off prematurely. Pouring water over the plant can also invite mildew to develop. When you water the chickpeas, water them directly at the soil level. Once the pods mature and the plant begins to die back on its own, cut back on watering the plant. Once every one to two weeks should suffice. Doing so encourages the drying process, which you'll want to the plant to go through before the harvest. Once the weather warms up, you should add a light coat of mulch around the stems. Doing so can retain an adequate amount of soil moisture, which is especially important if your plants are receiving full sun. Mulch can also help prevent weeds from invading the plant bed. You can add a little aged compost or similar organic material to the soil around the chickpeas mid-season. As before, though, you should avoid adding nitrogen-rich fertilizers. Chickpeas work with microorganisms in the soil to produce their own nitrogen, so they receive all the nitrogen they really need. Any excess nitrogen will cause the leaves to grow bushier and may dampen the eventual yield. When removing weeds or adding anything to the soil, you need to work carefully to avoid disturbing the plant's root system. The root system of a chickpea plant is quite shallow, so working too close to the base of the plant can cause damage to its roots. You should also avoid handling the plants when they are wet since doing so can cause fungus spores to spread quickly. Chickpeas are vulnerable to attacks by a range of different pests. You should avoid pre-treating the plant for pests, though, and instead wait until you spot pests before taking action against them.  Adult aphids, leafhoppers, and mites can be controlled with a blast of water from the hose or insecticidal soap. After noticing adult pests, look for eggs and crush them between your fingers. Alternatively, simply cut away any leaves with egg cases on them. For notably bad infestations, try a natural and food-safe pesticide containing pyrethrins. You should also keep the garden free of debris to reduce the number of pests. These plants are also vulnerable to a few different diseases, including blight, mosaic, and anthracnose. Plant disease-resistant varieties when possible.  To avoid the spread of disease, keep the planting bed free of debris and avoid handling the plants when they are wet. Remove diseased plants and discard them to prevent the disease from spreading. Burn them or put them in the trash, but do not use them for compost.
summary: Water regularly. Mulch as needed. Fertilize with caution. Handle the chickpeas carefully. Manage pests as you see them. Keep an eye out for signs of disease.
