INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Start by moistening the seed-starting medium thoroughly, so that it provides a good growing environment for the seeds. Fill the containers with the medium, leaving about 12 inch (1.3cm) of space between the top of the growing medium and the rim of the containers. Place the containers in a sunny, well-ventilated area with a steady, warm temperature. The way you sow your seeds is depending on what type of plant you're growing, so it's necessary to read the seed packet carefully first. Many seeds can be scattered evenly across the surface of the growing medium. Be sure not to place too many seeds in the same growing container, since you don't want them to crowd each other too much. Most seeds should be planted twice as deep as they are wide. Some seeds should be planted about 12 to 14 inch (1.3 to 0.6cm) below the surface of the growing medium. Check your seed pack to make sure you sow the seeds correctly. Some seeds do best when they are chilled or soaked before sowing. Be sure you're providing the right sunlight conditions for your specific seed species. Most seeds can germinate without light, but they'll need sun as soon as they sprout. Most seeds do best with a temperature of about 78 degrees, but some need colder or warmer conditions to germinate. Seed growing medium tends to dry out quickly, since there's no soil to hold the water. Be sure to water the seeds consistently, never allowing them to dry out too much. You can lightly drape a piece of plastic wrap over the seed trays to help trap in moisture. Don't overwater the containers, or the seeds could become waterlogged. They should be moist, but not dripping wet. As the seeds sprout into seedlings, you'll see thin green stems emerge from the growing medium. If the containers aren't already placed in a sunny area, be sure to move them to a place with direct sunlight or provide them with grow lights overhead. Keep them moist at all times and make sure the temperature never drops below the recommended level. You can place a heat mat under the seed starting tray to maintain the correct temperature. After a week or two, weed out the weaker-looking seedlings so that the stronger ones have more room to grow. Leave about 2 - 3 seedlings per container.

SUMMARY: Prepare the growing containers. Sow the seeds. Keep the seeds moist. Keep the seedlings healthy. Weed out the weaker seedlings.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you're in a hurry, you can speed things along by placing it in front of a dehumidifier or fan on a low setting. Once the gelatin is fully dried, it will curl up and peel away from the plastic sheet. Re-grind these larger pieces for a more uniformly fine-grained glitter. However, if you're okay with more variety in glitter sizes, you can skip this step altogether. Your edible glitter should last for months, but may lose some sparkle over time. Be sure to keep away from water and sunlight to prolong its shelf life.
Summary: Allow the glitter solidify overnight. Sift your glitter through a sieve to separate out larger pieces. Store in an airtight container or jar.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you're able to choose which direction to walk, start at the Brooklyn side of the bridge. Strolling across the bridge from this side offers stunning views of lower Manhattan's towering skyline. Additionally, Brooklyn Bridge Park and Cadman Plaza Park on the Brooklyn side are picturesque places to start your trip. If you're walking with friends, arrange to meet up at either park. The pedestrian entrance is at the northeast corner of Cadman Plaza, so this park is the most convenient meeting place. While Brooklyn Bridge Park is a short walk from the bridge's pedestrian entrance, it offers the best views of the bridge itself. While the Manhattan side sports superior skyline views, Brooklyn is packed with things to do. If you're starting in Manhattan, stroll across the bridge and lounge around Brooklyn's waterfront, which is lined with parks and vibrant neighborhoods. Jane's Carousel is a popular waterfront destination, and it's an excellent activity for kids. The neighborhoods surrounding the bridge are also packed with restaurants, shops, galleries, and other attractions. While you could walk briskly and cross the bridge in about 20 minutes, give yourself an hour or so. That way, you can stroll slowly and appreciate the views. Once you get to the pedestrian walkway, look for the stenciled markings that designate the bike and pedestrian lanes. Both lanes are narrow, and you'll need to stay in your lane to avoid speedy cyclists. Be sure to stay on the right-hand side of the bridge to avoid oncoming pedestrian and cyclist traffic. If you're walking with kids, hold hands to avoid accidents. At the start of your walk, the bridge's incline will be too low to see much of the view across the river. Whether you depart from Brooklyn or Manhattan, these first few minutes are perfect for people-watching. Seize the opportunity to peek at passersby. Look for locals briskly crossing the bridge to run errands in the neighboring borough, or try to figure out where nearby tourists are from. If you started from the Brooklyn side, lower Manhattan's skyline will come into view as the bridge's elevation increases. Look for the Freedom Tower, the Woolworth Building, and the Financial District's towers. The Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and other iconic Manhattan skyscrapers will also be visible. If you're heading toward Brooklyn, you'll see its park-lined waterfront, charming neighborhoods, and growing skyline. The Brooklyn Bridge is an architectural wonder, so take the time to admire its impressive neo-Gothic structure. When it opened, it was dubbed the eighth wonder of the world, and its towers were the tallest buildings in the Western hemisphere! If you started from the Brooklyn side, look toward the left, or to the west. If you started from Manhattan, look toward the right, or east side, to find the Statue of Liberty. Though she'll look tiny, you'll get a clear view of the Statue of Liberty from the span of the bridge between its central towers.

SUMMARY:
Walk from Brooklyn to Manhattan for sprawling skyline views. Cross from Manhattan to Brooklyn to explore parks and neighborhoods. Plan to spend up to 1 hour crossing the bridge. Stay in the pedestrian lane and steer clear of bikes. Do some people-watching for the first part of your walk. Look for iconic skyscrapers as you walk toward lower Manhattan. Check out the bridge's beams, trusses, and wire supports. Watch for the Statue of Liberty in the distance.
