INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before you rent your house, go through it room by room and determine what needs to be fixed. Make a list of essential repairs that need to be made in order for the house to be safe and functional. Making sure the house is up to code before tenants move in will be a good way to start your landlord/tenant relationship. Make sure the plumbing is working properly. The toilets should all flush without a problem, the showers and sinks shouldn't be backed up, and so on. Check to see if the electrical outlets and light switches are working properly. Replace light bulbs that need replacing. Make sure any staircases are safe to walk up and down. If there's a broken step, you'll need to fix it. Install a banister if you don't already have one next to steep stairways. Fix broken doorknobs and other odds and ends so that the house is functional. If you're offering use of large appliances like a washer and dryer, refrigerator, or dishwasher, make sure they're in working order. The roof, gutters, and other outside features should also be in good repair. You'll be able to charge more rent if you provide some newer features that make the house more comfortable and durable. Look around to assess what upgrades might make a big difference at a low cost to you. Your house might already be in tip top shape, in which case you don't need to worry about installing upgrades. How does the flooring and carpeting look? It might be worthwhile to get a sturdy new flooring or carpeting that can stand up to years of rotating tenants. Assess the kitchen and decide whether to install new countertops or cabinets. You might want to renovate the bathrooms if it has been awhile since they've been updated. Decide whether the walls and ceilings could use a coat of fresh paint. A little landscaping around the house's exterior also increases the value of the rental. While you want to make sure the house is comfortable and nice looking, it's not necessary to go all out with fancy light fixtures, cabinetry, new appliances, and so on. Rental houses tend to endure a lot of wear and tear, so it's not a good use of your money to install expensive items. If you do decide to install new fixtures, choose sturdy, mid-range items instead of high-priced items made from expensive materials. You might be able to get a good deal on fancy items at a salvage store. If you want to add interesting details like stained glass windows or a claw-foot tub to your home, look for used items instead of buying them new. Before you begin showing the house, empty it out of all of your possessions (unless you're renting your house furnished). Clean it from top to bottom so that it looks presentable when people come to view it. Even if your house has older features, cleaning everything thoroughly will help it seem like a comfortable place to live. Have the carpets deep-cleaned and wax the floors. The bathrooms and kitchen should be sparkling. Get rid of mold spots, dust in the corners, etc. Wash the windows both inside and out. Sweep away leaves and other debris outside. Mow the lawn and trim the bushes.

SUMMARY: Make sure your house is up to code. Install upgrades that will pay off in the end. Don't spend money on expensive fixtures or features. Empty and clean your house.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Never prune a healthy, green leaf that is still functional. These are the regions of the plant that manufacture fruit, and removing them can decrease your strawberry yields. No matter what time of year it is, pruning should be reserved specifically for brown or diseased leaves. Even pruning your plants lightly before this time can significantly decrease fruit yields. The only thing you should do before this time period is remove dead leaves, and only from plants that were planted late, have grown poorly, or endured a cold winter. Never remove healthy and functional leaves, as they are responsible for food production, proper plant growth, and survival. About 1 week following the last harvest, mow the leaves of your June-bearing strawberries 1 inch (2.5cm) above the plant crowns. After you're done mowing, do not mow again until next yearanything earlier will destroy newer growth. Use a rake to clean up debris after mowing and prevent diseases. Avoid mowing late-season strawberries that are harvested in the final week of July. If your June-bearing strawberries are lined in 2 foot (0.61m) matted rows, use a tiller to narrow them down to strips that are approximately 8 inches (20cm) wide immediately after harvesting their strawberries. Focus on removing older plants and saving younger ones. Space strips about 3 feet (0.91m) apart. Late-season strawberries that are harvested in the last week of July typically don't need to be mowed.

SUMMARY: Preserve green, healthy leaves throughout the year. Prune your strawberry plants after mid- to late February. Mow June-bearing strawberries after the last harvest. Cut June-bearing matted rows using a rototiller after harvest.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: "Who's" is the contracted form of "who is" and is suitable for use only where the non-contracted form would also be suitable. Ex. "Who's coming to dinner?" "Whose" means "of whom or of which" and is a possessive pronoun, meaning it must be used to modify another noun. Ex. "Whose car is blocking mine in the driveway?" In question form, "whose" can modify a noun that isn't explicitly mentioned. Ex. "Have you ever heard her music?" "Whose?" "Kelly's."

SUMMARY:
Use "who's" as instructed. Use "whose" as instructed.
