Article: A mix of 3 parts peat moss, 1 part perlite, and 1 part compost will keep the soil well-drained while also retaining water for your ficus. Adding the compost into the pot will add nutrients to the mix as well. You can also use a well-draining potting soil if a soilless growing medium is unavailable. Overwatering is just as detrimental as under-watering a ficus. Both can cause the leaves on your tree to drop. Pour just enough water into the pot to seep through the drainage holes at the bottom. If the leaves fold easily, you may have overwatered your ficus. If the leaves are crinkly to the touch, they may be under-watered. Water less in the winter since there is less sun and temperatures are colder. Fertilizer will promote your vegetation to grow throughout the season. The fertilizer should be diluted to half strength so it is not overpowering or harmful to your ficus. Follow the directions on the package to determine the amount of fertilizer to use with your size plant. When the days are shorter through the late fall and winter, don't fertilize your plant.

Use a soilless growing medium if possible. Water your ficus when the soil is dry 2 inches (5.1cm) down. Apply fertilizer once a month between April and September.
Article: Use your fists to hit the block. If it seems to break too quickly, stop, because there is a silverfish in the block. Another way to tell if there is a silverfish in the block is using the F3 menu. Spawner blocks break a little bit faster than regular blocks. If the block seems to be breaking at a normal rate, you are safe. This guarantees that the silverfish will not come out. Of course, you can try taking them with your iron/diamond sword, but as they are small and fast, this is not recommended to inexperienced players. Turn and run. Do not stop until you are a reasonable distance. Block up the way you came with dirt. Return later. Or, you could pillar stack 2 dirt blocks up, camp there, and fight them off with a bow or sword. Get on high ground (at least 2 blocks high) and place lava below you. This should take care of the silverfish that are chasing you. Get on one of the many stairs in the stronghold and pour a water bucket to wash them away. They'll be kept away by the current. Do not use splash potions. This will cause you to be swarmed. Note that if you decide to attack it with a sword or an other melee weapon, and you take more than one hit to kill it, you will get swarmed. But if it only takes you one hit for you to kill it, you will not get swarmed. Collect the experience, if there is any.

Prevent attacks. Place some TNT next to the block and blow it up. In the event that you are confronted by a swarm, you have four options. Go on through the stronghold.
Article: Choose two canes that are roughly the same thickness as your pinky finger. Ideally, they should grow as near to the head of the vine as possible, and the buds should be close together. The "head" of the vine is the point at which the trunk intersects with the top wire of your support system. The two canes should be positioned on either side of the trunk. These two canes will be your primary canes. During the following season of growth, they will grow new shoots that can bear fruit. Selecting canes close to the trunk head prevents the arms from becoming too long. Excessively long arms can create nonproductive gaps in the vine. Make sure that your chosen canes have firm wood with a brown outer layer of bark nearly all the way to the tip. They must not have any visible damage, either. Prune your two chosen canes down so that only 8 to 10 buds remain. Tie the remaining portions of both canes to your support system. Choose four additional shoots that are thinner than your two primary canes. Trim these down to two buds each. These spur canes will act as sources of renewal during the following year's cane production. These shoots should all be close to your primary side canes. Remove any other cane not already selected by cutting it away at trunk level.

Select one or two canes. Trim the canes down. Set aside one or two spur canes. Cut away the rest of your canes.
