Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Soak your seeds in hot filtered water overnight before planting. Start your seeds indoors if you don't live in a tropical area. Plant outdoors when temperatures stay above 50F (10C). Plant the indigo at least 1 foot (0.30m) apart. Consider potting indigo if your area isn't tropical.

Answer: The seeds have a hard coating around them, so it's hard to get them to germinate. Soaking them softens that shell so that the seeds can sprout. They should soak for at least 6 hours. Use filtered or distilled water, as tap water is treated with chemicals. Pour seed starter into individual seed-starting cups. Place the seeds under the soil about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) deep. You may also decide to start your seeds indoors if you'd prefer to plant seedlings instead of seeds directly into the soil. The best time to start your seeds is 5-6 weeks before the last frost. You can find your first and last frost dates by visiting the Almanac's website here: https://www.almanac.com/gardening/frostdates. This is the minimum temperature for placing the plants outdoors. Keep in mind that cooler temperatures can cause your seeds or seedlings to fail to thrive. If you started your seeds indoors, harden them off before you move them outdoors. To do this, place them outside for a few hours each day, gradually increasing how long they're out there. Start with 2-3 hours, adding an additional hour each day for a week. Make sure that they are protected from the wind while they're outside by placing them near a wall, fence, or other protective structure. This ensures that each plant has enough room to grow, and that the root systems are able to absorb the nutrients they need. You can plant your seeds closer together and thin them after they sprout. This may be a great option if you're worried your seeds won't sprout. You may be able to grow indigo in a pot, though its growth will be limited. Your pot should be at least 6 inches (15cm) deep, but a larger pot will give you better results. However, you should choose a pot that you can bring indoors during cold weather. You likely won't be able to harvest your potted indigo for dye. Some people grow small indigo plants in their windowsill. Use well-draining potting soil.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Go over the technical analysis method. Use a stock's moving average in price to determine a market trend. Research the price of a stock using trading volume.

Answer: Technical analysis does not consider the financial performance of a company. The profits and cash flow of the business are not considered in this analysis. Technical analysis considers statistics that relate to the market activity of the stock. Technical analysis is not aimed to discover what investors think, but what they do by looking at buys and sells of securities. Two widely used statistics are the stock's historical change in stock price and the stock's trading volume. A technical analyst believes that historic trends in a stock's price can be used to predict a future change in the stock's price. Trading volume refers to the number of shares of a stock that are traded each day. Technical analysts also believe that changes in trading volume can be used to predict a change in a stock's price. Moving average simply adds up the price of a stock for a certain period and divides that total by the number of trading days in the period. Moving average is a statistic used to chart a trend in a particular stock's price. Assume, for example, that you add up the prices where IBM stock traded for the first trading 10 days of October, then divide the total by 10. The average price is $150. Trading days refers to the weekdays that the stock market is open. You then repeat the calculation each trading day. On October 11th, you calculate the moving average for prior 10 trading days- including the 11th. Drop the first day and add the 11th day to maintain a ten day average. Each day's moving average calculation will be slightly different. Say that your analysis shows moving average prices of $150, $150.75 and $152. You technical analysis concludes that, over time, the trend of the stock price is slowly increasing. If the moving average starts increasing at a faster rate, that change indicates that a technical investor should buy the stock. On the other hand, if the moving average decreases at a faster rate, a technical investor may sell the stock. The trend is considered broken when the stock price breaks the moving average line. Trading volume refers to the number of shares that trade during a specific period of time (Day, week, month). Trading volume results are usually combined with other types of analysis to make a decision about buying or selling a stock. Assume that IBM's common stock normally trades 100,000 shares per day. If the number of shares traded increased or decreased sharply, that may be an indication of a trend. Say, for example, that the trading volume increased to 150,000 shares per day. At the same time, the stock's moving average began to increase sharply. The increases in both of these technical indicators may present a signal to buy the stock. Technical analysis shows that the stock price is moving higher. Increasing volume with an upward trend indicates accumulation, while increasing volume with a downward trend means liquidation. Most technicians consider movement without volume has little value. If the trading volume increased and the moving average declined sharply, that may indicate a downward trend for the stock. The technical analyst may conclude that more people are selling the stock, due to the increase in trading volume and the price decline. Other technical indicators that technicians consider to determine buying or selling opportunities include short interest and support and resistance levels. Short interest measures the total number of shares of a stock that have been sold short without being covered or closed out. A high short interest is a red flag. Support and resistance levels refer to price levels beyond which the price of an asset will not go in a certain direction.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Learn your size for heels. Buy platform or wedge heels. Look for shoes with straps. Pick closed-toe shoes.

Answer: Many people wear different sizes for heels than they do for flats, which can make getting your size right tricky! Try on heels a half-size larger than your usual size to see if they fit more comfortably. Try on different brands to see which ones fit you best. That will help you walk with comfort and ease, so your heels will be less likely to slip. Stiletto heels look great, but they're much harder to walk in. Buying wedge heels or heels with a platform sole will level your foot out and make it easier to walk. This will make it much easier for your foot to stay securely inside the shoe! If you've got your heart set on wearing pumps, try buying a pair slightly shorter than usual. Sometimes, the actual shape of your shoe can prevent slipping. If you're having problems with your feet slipping out of your heels, try picking shoes that will make them stay put. Ankle straps, T-straps, and Mary Janes help keep your foot firmly in place. Over the course of a day, gravity and moisture can make your feet slide down into the toes of your shoes. If you've got open toes, your toes can slide down so far that they actually poke out, leaving lots of space in your heel! Try buying closed-toe shoes to keep your toes inside your shoe.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Reduce your consumption. Avoid disposable packaging. Favor sustainably-sourced products. Beware of chemicals. Reuse Recycle

Answer:
Buy less and be conscious of where your money goes. Challenge yourself to only buy things that you need and that you will use. Before you make a purchase, ask yourself: "Do I need this? Will I use this?" Not all indulgences are bad but a big part of living green is being aware of how your choices impact the world around you. Try to buy products that minimize plastic wrap. As a general rule: if a piece of plastic is flimsy and does not hold its shape, then it almost certainly cannot be recycled at your local center. Buy food in bulk! Look for a local wholesale grocery store that features bulk food bins. You can purchase grains, flours, nuts, fruits, vegetables, and other staples by the pound, no plastic packaging necessary. Bring your own canvas bag when you go shopping. If you have the choice between "paper or plastic": choose paper. Use reusable baskets, bins, and cardboard boxes to carry bulk purchases. Try storing food in jars or Tupperware containers. Wash out plastic bags and reuse them. Drink tap water, not bottled water! It is cheap, and it is safe. When you do need to purchase goods, try to be a discerning consumer. Avoid spending your money on products that you know have been manufactured using unethical practices. Look for organic, free-range, humane, local products. Try to buy food that is in season, rather than food that has been frozen for months or shipped halfway around the globe to your local supermarket. Buy local, when possible. It takes a lot of money and fossil fuels to transport goods around the world. Supporting farmers and craftspeople in your area can be a great way to reduce your carbon footprint. Buy recycled products, when possible. If you must buy paper and plastic, then buy recycled paper and recycled plastic products. Read the labels on the products that you buy. Make sure that the chemicals hidden in these things will not leach into the environment during or after use, harming humans, animals, and ecosystems. Avoid industrial-strength cleaning products. Make sure to safely dispose of chemical products. anything that you can. Find creative ways to reuse paper, styrofoam, old CDs and DVDs, empty water bottles any consumer product that is not toxic or completely unusable after its intended single use. Try to break out of the self-perpetuating cycle of "use and dispose." Refill glass and plastic water bottles. Clean out food-packaging jars and use them for drinking or storage. Use rechargeable batteries. It's hard to safely dispose of traditional batteries, and they are not designed with reuse in mind. Rechargeable batteries can dramatically increase the time between battery purchases! what you can't reuse. Learn what you can and cannot recycle. In general, you can recycle all paper products, some metal products (aluminum, tin, steel,) some plastic products, and most glass. Try to make it a practice, but be aware of the limitations. Every area is different, so make sure that you understand which municipal recycling options are available to you. Recyclable items need to be clean and free of food residue, especially paper products. If you have mixed material recycling, the residue on glass and aluminum can contaminate paper products.
