Article: The purple-flowered saffron plant grows from the crocus corm (which is similar to a bulb). These corms should be purchased fresh, just prior to planting. You can order them online, or buy them from a local nursery. Crocus corms will grow best in hardiness zones 6-9. Local nurseries within these zones are more likely to carry crocus corms. Select an area of land that gets a good amount of direct sunlight. Dig into the soil to make sure that it's not too hard or packed too tightly. Crocus bulbs can die if they become waterlogged, so you need soil that drains effectively. You can til the soil prior to planting in order to loosen it. Till the location where you will plant your corms, and work organic matter 10 inches (25cm) deep into the soil. You can use compost, peat, or shredded leaves. This provides nutrients for the crocus bulbs to survive through the winter. If rodents or other pests are a common problem in your garden, planting in containers might be a good option for you. You will need plastic milk crates, weed cloth, duct tape, and topsoil. Be sure to choose a container with drainage holes or add them if it doesn't have any. Line plastic milk crates with weed cloth and secure with duct tape. Fill your milk crates with about 5 inches (13cm) of topsoil. For best results, you should plant your corms 6-8 weeks prior to the first deep frost of the season. Depending on your climate (and hemisphere), this may be around October or November. Check a farmer's almanac or ask local gardeners if you need help determining when to expect a deep frost in your region.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Purchase crocus corms. Find a planting location with well-draining soil and full sun. Prepare the soil with organic matter. Plant your corms in containers as an alternative. Plant your crocus corms before the ground freezes.
Article: The doctor chooses an antibiotic and the dosage based upon your state of health, your weight, and what microorganism(s) are causing your infection. This minimizes the risk of side effects. Do not take medication that has not been specifically prescribed for you and your medical condition. Let your doctor determine the treatment plan. Infections can be caused by a variety of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi such as yeast. An antibiotic prescribed for a bacterial infection will not treat other types of infection. Do not use an antibiotic prescribed for another person. Any drug, prescription, nonprescription, or alcohol, can interact with the antibiotic. This also includes supplements, natural or herbal remedies, and even multivitamins. The effectiveness of the antibiotic or your other medications may be compromised if you do not tell your doctor what else you're taking. You should also tell your doctor whether you have ever experienced any allergies to medication or other problems with medication, including antibiotics. Some antibiotics can cause your other medications to be metabolized slower or faster than usual. The antibiotic may cause a medicine to be absorbed into your system poorly. One of your medications could affect how the antibiotic is absorbed. Your current medications will influence what antibiotic the doctor chooses. Certain antibiotics affect the way alcohol is broken down or metabolized in the body. This can lead to uncomfortable symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and headache. You should not consume alcohol while using antibiotics. It contains important drug information including how the drug works, what the possible side effects are, and how it may interact with other drugs. Your pharmacist will give it to you when she fills your prescription. Contact your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions about what you have read. They are happy to answer any questions you have. It's always better to ask if you are unsure! Familiarize yourself with the prescribed dose (how much of the antibiotic you take each time) and frequency (how many times a day that dose is to be taken). Antibiotics come in a variety of forms: capsule, tablet, chewable tablet, or liquid. The latter are more commonly prescribed in pediatrics for infants and children. Your dose could be one or two tablets/capsules each time, or the dosing could be irregular. For example, Zithromax is an antibiotic which requires you to take a double dose on the first day and a single dose on the remaining days. Think about frequency in terms of a 24-hour period. Every 12 hours is the same as twice a day and 4 times a day is every six hours.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Take only antibiotics specifically prescribed for you. Tell your doctor and pharmacist about any other medications and supplements you are taking. Read the patient leaflet that comes with the antibiotic first. Read the label on the medicine bottle.
Article: You can seize many different financial assets from the debtor in a process called garnishment. Consider whether to garnish any of the following: Future wages. The debtor's employer will withhold some of the wages and send the amount to you. Financial accounts, such as checking or savings accounts. You can get the bank to turn over the money in the accounts to you. Stock accounts. Any payment owed to the debtor. Instead of paying the debtor, they will pay you. Florida law prevents you from garnishing all of the debtor's wages. The amount you can garnish depends on what kind of judgment you are trying to collect on and how much the debtor makes. Generally, you can only garnish up to 25% of someone's wages or the amount that exceeds 30 times the minimum wage (currently $8.10 an hour), whichever is less. However, the debtor might only make $243 or less a week. Since this is less than 30 times the minimum wage, you can't garnish any wages. If the debtor owes child support payments, then you can garnish 50% of their disposable income. Go to the clerk's office with your certified court judgment and ask for the writ. You will have to file a short motion and pay fees and a deposit. Your clerk might have a fill-in-the-blank motion, or you can find a sample online to use as a guide. Also pick up a claim of exemption form, which you'll need to give to the debtor. This is the person that owes the debtor money. For example, if you are garnishing future wages, then serve the writ on the debtor's employer. If you're garnishing a bank account, serve the writ on the bank. Eventually, you do need to give the debtor notice. Provide the notice within five days of receiving your writ of garnishment or within three days of serving it on the garnishee, whichever is later. Provide the debtor with the following documents: A copy of your motion for writ of garnishment A copy of the writ of garnishment issued by the court clerk The claim of exemption form The debtor might believe that the property is exempt. For example, the money in their bank account might be unemployment compensation, Social Security benefits, or public assistance. Also, a debtor is exempt if they are a head of household who provides more than half of the support for a child or other dependent. If the debtor wants to claim an exemption, they will send you a copy of their exemption form. If you receive the statement by fax or by hand, you have eight days to respond. You must make a statement under oath contesting the exemption and file it with the court. If you receive the statement by mail, then you have 14 days to file your statement with the court. If either the debtor or the garnishee fights the garnishment, you'll end up in court. A judge will have to decide whether to garnish. Gather all of your paperwork and take it with you to court.
