How to produce quality fruit jelly
Choose fruits at the right stage.
Fruit used for making jelly should be just under-ripe and freshly picked.
Be aware of the proportions when making jelly.
OPTIONS:
- There is usually 1 cup of sugar to 1 cup of liquid. Ensure that the sugar is dissolved after adding, before it comes to the boil.
- The ideal fruit to use for putting jelly in are fresh fruits, peaches, apricots, coconut, strawberries, oranges and watermelon. Ask yourself if someone has the ingredient you are looking for (celery, carrots, peas) to make the jelly.
- Similar to peanut butter, these food items do not produce the same juice and are more concentrated. Therefore, check out the fruit options listed above.
- Bananas, oranges, strawberries, apples and avocados all have a similar texture. However, lemons and pears are high in fructose and difficult to deal with.

OUT: There is usually 1 cup of sugar to 1 cup of liquid. Ensure that the sugar is dissolved after adding, before it comes to the boil.

How to be a mature preteen
Share your feelings with your parents.
When your parents or guardian ask how you're doing, respond honestly. If you're sulking around because of a fight with a friend, fill them in.
OPTIONS:
- If you don't want to tell your parents, tell your teacher or your school counselor. Don't stress about what made you angry, but be honest.
- Say something like, " i'm upset because my grades are very low. " this way, you maintain a clean slate and, hopefully, prevent arguments.
- You don't need to go overboard with the details if you don't feel comfortable. Take it a step further and initiate the conversation yourself.
- Talk to them about your dilemma and how you're feeling instead of accusing them. Your parents may be more understanding if you talk to them straight through the fight.

OUT: You don't need to go overboard with the details if you don't feel comfortable. Take it a step further and initiate the conversation yourself.

How to prune bamboo
Prune once a year in late summer or early fall to minimize spreading.
Although bamboo has a rapid growth rate, you only need to prune it once a year if you do a really thorough job. Pruning your bamboo more frequently can actually cause it to send off more shoots.
OPTIONS:
- This may sound creepy, but give it a break after it reaches the height of maturity. Consider cutting back your bamboo once a year to preserve new stalks.
- You can trim bamboo about once a year if you haven't already pruned it to give your bamboo more roots. You should cut back twice a year to avoid overregrowing your bamboo.
- Long branching canes can get cuttings quicker than longer reaching canes because the stalks bend to additional sunlight. Prune as much as possible every other year.
- Mark on your calendar when to start pruning and coordinate it with fertilizing. Cut down weak or dead canes in the spring to keep your plants healthy.
