Problem: Article: Your body, and mind, follows patterns known as circadian rhythms. If you keep a consistent, healthy schedule, it will help your brain function optimally. This is important for keeping your thoughts organized and logical throughout your waking hours. Meditate before bed to help promote restful sleep. Exercising throughout the day will help make you ready for bed earlier in the evening. Aside from going to bed early, you also need to sleep late enough. The optimum amount of sleep (for most people) is between seven and eight hours. Not only does this give your brain the energy needed to think logically, sleep also helps your brain to consolidate thoughts into logical, organized memories. Avoid things like large meals, alcohol, and caffeine late in the evenings. These can keep your body stimulated and awake at bedtime. Avoid having a television or radio playing in your room. If noise from outside is an issue, try to use heavy blinds to dampen the sound. A quiet, dark room promotes a restful night of sleep. A fan or other sound constant sound can help to block noises from outside the room. A fan will also keep the room cooler, which can aid in getting restful sleep. The more things your brain associates with the bed, the harder it will be to calm down and go to sleep. Keep things like televisions, computers, cell phones, and other distractions out of the bedroom. You will wind down faster and sleep better. To avoid exhaustion and brain fog, you need to let your mind rest through the day. Recommendations vary from 15 minutes per day of down time to 15 minutes per hour. Take the amount of time that you need to keep your thoughts organized, and you will see a boost in your work and personal life.
Summary: Go to bed at a reasonable time. Aim for seven to eight hours of sleep. Keep your room quiet. Limit the activities you do in bed. Take breaks through the day.

Problem: Article: For most gardeners, it's recommended to have your soil lab tested every two years. If you're a serious gardener and want to maximize your crop, test your soil every season before you plant. The results will let you know if your soil contains low, medium, optimum, or high levels of potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients. Search online for a nearby university or other soil-testing lab, or contact your local extension agent. If you're growing fruits and vegetables, prevent potassium deficiency by giving your plants a potassium boost when they start to flower. When they flower and fruit, plants can deplete their potassium supply in a matter of days. Signs of deficiency include yellow leaves and brown leaf edges. Discoloration usually occurs in older leaves first, or those closer to the bottom of your plant. In fruiting plants, like tomatoes, you might see uneven ripening or yellow patches on the fruit. Because of its high solubility, potassium can easily leach out of soil, especially in coarse, sandy soils. Keep a close eye on your plants if you know leaching could be an issue. If possible, test your soil more frequently. Amending your sandy soil with manure and well-rotted compost can help prevent leaching. Adding more potassium can lower the amount of other nutrients that the plant absorbs. Potassium competes with magnesium most directly, so look for yellowing between leaves' veins. The veins themselves stay green, but the the spaces between them turn yellow. If you add potassium but notice yellowing occurs or worsens, just purchase an organic calcium-magnesium supplement or magnesium sulfate. Depending on your product, you'll either mix it into the soil or spray it onto your plant's bottom leaves.
Summary: Have your soil tested every one to two years. Add potassium when your crop starts to flower and fruit. Add potassium if you spot signs of deficiency. Monitor your plants more closely if you have sandy soil. Check for signs of magnesium deficiency.

Problem: Article: Most of the time, you can search an online encyclopedia by entering search terms in a search box on the main page. Pick something that seems to embody your topic to get the most relevant results. For instance, to research the Civil War, you might enter "American Civil War." Refine your search as needed. For instance, you might have to change "American Civil War" to "U.S. Civil War." You can search within a specific site using Google's search box. This method can be helpful if the site doesn't have a search box, or it doesn't seem to be returning relevant results. Start with your search terms, followed by a space and "site:" followed by the name of the site. Google will only turn up results from that encyclopedia site. For instance, if you want to search for the Civil War on encyclopedia.com, you'd type "Civil War site:encyclopedia.com." You can also find information by simply browsing, if the encyclopedia is set up for that function. To browse, look for the list of broader subjects, and narrow down to a topic that is relevant to what you want to research. For instance, if you're interested in the Civil War, start with "History" in a general encyclopedia. From there, you might click "American History" and then "Civil War."
Summary:
Use the site's search box. Try Google's search box. Browse by subject.
