INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Applying a fertilizer twice a month can keep your plant healthy and strong. Purchase an organic fertilizer from the store or make your own compost to give your plant supplemental nutrients. Spread the fertilizer around and in the soil  (by tiller or by hand) so your pepper plant can absorb the nutrients.  How much fertilizer you use depends on its strength. Read the instructions as you use your fertilizer to determine how much your black pepper plant needs. Black pepper plants respond particularly well to liquid fertilizers. Pepper plants have a shallow root system and soak in organic nutrients well. Mulching your plant every 6 to 8 months can keep the soil damp and reduce temperature fluctuations during the day and night.  Organic mulches made of grass clippings, leaves, or manures work well with pepper plants. Plant your mulch at least 2–4 inches (5.1–10.2 cm) below the ground, so your plant's roots can more fully absorb it.

SUMMARY: Fertilize the pepper plant every 2 weeks. Mulch your plant twice per year.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Male sperm are thought to be weaker but faster than male sperm. It's thought that if you increase the overall number of sperm, you can raise the odds that a male sperm will reach the egg first. Keep in mind that newer studies have shown this not to be true. But it won't hurt to try to:  Sperm production is at its highest when the testes are slightly cooler than body temperature. The male partner should avoid hot tubs or warm laptops. Don't smoke or drink. Men who smoke and drink heavily are more likely to have low sperm count. If you're having a hard time quitting, talk to your doctor. Don't take illegal drugs, as they can slow sperm production. Avoid certain medications. A variety of medications can affect a man's fertility. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns. In general, aim to have sex in the narrow window starting 24 hours before ovulation and ending 12 hours after ovulation. During this time, conceiving a boy is more likely, because male sperm are thought to be faster. Researchers have shown that this is likely not true, but it's okay to try this method.  Avoid sex in the days leading up to ovulation. It is thought that this will help make the male sperm more concentrated. To find your ovulation date, calculate the day that is about 2 weeks before your next expected period. You can also purchase an ovulation kit at the drug store.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Purchase an over the counter (OTC) acne cleanser that contains salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Squirt some of the cleanser into a soft bath sponge and then rub it over your back. Try to wash your back for at least a minute so the cleanser can penetrate your skin. Then rinse it off.  It's easiest to wash your back while you're in the shower. Wash your back with the cleanser twice a day unless it dries out your skin. If your skin is too dry, wash just once a day. Buy an OTC exfoliant and squirt some of it into a soft bath sponge. Massage the exfoliant into your back for at least a minute and then rinse it off. The gentle exfoliant will help to remove the blackheads on your back.  To make it easier to scrub your entire back, try using a scrubber brush that has a long handle. Many products designed to exfoliate blackheads also contain salicylic acid. Apply the cream once a day. Check retinoid cream or gel products to ensure they contain 0.1% adapalene. This will help unclog your pores so it's easier to get rid of blackheads while preventing them from forming.  If you have hard to reach blackheads, ask someone to help you spread the cream or gel for you. Rub the cream onto your back after you get out of the shower or before you go to bed. You've probably seen a lot of acne medications that contain benzoyl peroxide which reduce inflammation and treat bacteria that causes acne. Since blackheads aren't caused by bacteria and they don't cause inflammation, benzoyl peroxide won't remove your blackheads. If you have acne on your back that's causing pimples, cysts, or pustules, the benzoyl peroxide would help by removing the bacteria that's causing them. If you have a lot of blackheads that aren't responding to skin care products, talk with the dermatologist about microdermabrasion. The technician will drag a small machine over your back that sprays very tiny crystals over your skin. The machine also sucks up the crystals and dead cells from the surface of your skin. Your skin will be smoother and feel softer after the microdermabrasion.

SUMMARY:
Wash your back with salicylic acid and glycolic acid cleansers. Scrub your back with a gentle exfoliant once or twice a week. Spread OTC retinoid cream or gel after washing your back. Avoid using products that contain benzoyl peroxide. Ask your dermatologist about microdermabrasion.
