When you notice the tank starts to look smeared or dirty, it's time to wipe it down. Just use a damp cloth to wipe down the sides and the lid. The substrate will get dirty over time as your snail uses it for a bathroom. That means it needs to be changed out frequently. Once a week, throw out the old substrate and provide the snail with a new, clean layer. Once in a while, you'll need to clean the tank fully. Clean it at least once a month, though some owners clean it weekly. Take everything out, and scrub the tank down thoroughly with hot water. You don't want to use cleaners or disinfectants, as the snails will absorb those through their skin. Snails also need regular baths, though only about once a month. Keep in mind that snails absorb through their skin, so you don't want to use soap. Just bathe them in lukewarm water, gently wiping them down with a soft cloth. After you do anything with your snail, from bathing it to cleaning the cage, you need to wash your hands well. Using warm water and soap, scrub them for at least 20 seconds before rinsing. Though the risk is low, snails can act as an intermediate host for certain parasites. Washing your hands well is important for protecting yourself from possible parasites.

Cucumber plants grow long, skinny vines early in their blooming season. The vine runs down the center of the plant. Locate your main vines so you can find the suckers, which grow laterally off the main vines. Suckers are the small lateral stems that grow off the main vine. Either pinch them off with your fingers or cut them off with your pruning shears. Prune them away at the base of the stem, and make your cut at a 45-degree angle. To identify the sucker, look for the fuzzy, floral-like end coming off of the main plant stem. If you leave the suckers on the plant, you will have a smaller overall yield and may grow smaller cucumbers. Get rid of any browning or rotting cucumbers as soon as you notice them. Make your cut where the cucumber grows from the main vine, and make your cut at a 45-degree angle. This keeps your plants healthy by distributing the nutrients to the growing cucumbers rather than the damaged ones. When pruning, only cut off the suckers. The stems of the cucumber grow leaves and flowers as part of its natural growing cycle. If you cut off the flowers, your plant will not grow cucumbers.

One-sentence summary -- Follow the main vine up the plant to find the suckers. Get rid of 4-6 suckers growing from the bottom of the cucumber plant. Cut off any damaged or unhealthy cucumbers using pruning shears. Avoid removing the leaves or flowers of your plant.

For the most part, when interviewers ask about conflict they're looking for an example. An interviewer might ask a broad question like, "Can you tell me about a time you've dealt with conflict at the office?" As you're preparing for your job hunt, keep a running list of conflicts you've dealt with professionally over the years. Workplace conflicts can range from small misunderstandings to large blowouts. You should pick something that is fairly easy to explain in a few sentences and stick to examples that highlight professional conflicts. Talking about how you and a co-worker had creative differences while working on a presentation is a better example than two employees dating and then breaking up. Pick only conflicts that were fixed. Interviewers respond best to narrative examples, with a clear beginning, middle, and end. You don't want to choose a conflict that was left unresolved as an open-ended closing is unsatisfactory to a potential employer. Your examples should highlight your own actions. Select a conflict that you took action to resolve rather than choosing a disagreement that was fixed by an outside party. Also, select a conflict that was somewhat substantial. While the conflict does not need to be cataclysmic, it should be an issue that lasted more than a day or two. One example of a good workplace conflict would be something like, "I was working on a brochure for an upcoming charity auction our company was hosting. I was working with Ramona, a designer for the company, and she missed a few important deadlines. As a result, I was concerned we would not finish the brochure in time to do adequate advertising for the auction." This is a conflict where there is something at stake, a brochure, and the resolution is not necessarily black and white. Your interviewer will want to know how you dealt with this conflict. Consider this carefully. It can be helpful to jot down a few short paragraphs explaining how you dealt with a handful of work conflicts. Focus on how you resolved the disagreement in a way that was both professional and productive. Emphasize overcoming any feelings of frustration to work on a solution that was beneficial to your workplace. Do not just talk about your actions. Also, talk about your mentality while coping with the conflict. What were you thinking, and why? Take the above example. A good follow up might be, "When I tried to discuss my worries with Ramona, she blew up at me and I was taken aback. I tried to remain calm and consider her feelings. She explained she had a very specific plan for the brochure and did not feel the company gave her enough time to complete to project. I asked if there was any way I could help, and she told me if I would allow her to train me to do a few simple design tasks it would take a lot off her plate. I agreed and we managed to work together and complete the brochure in time." This shows that you took action in the face of conflict and highlights your capacity to empathize with a co-worker's situation. You should make sure you can explain the situation briefly. A potential employer will be conducting many interviews throughout the course of the day and might not remember details if you include too much. Try to write down the basics of the situation in bullet points and then practice telling the story a few times before your interview.
