Q: to make tea. Traditionally, jasmine buds are steeped in teas for a fragrant herbal tea. Although you can grow your jasmine as a strictly decorative plant, harvesting its buds can help you get more use out of it. You can also cut jasmine flower stems with shears and transfer them to a vase as an indoor decoration. As your jasmine's flower buds develop, wait until they are green but not yet opened. Use your hands or pruning shears to pick as many jasmine buds as you need for your tea or oil. Use the jasmine buds immediately after picking for ideal freshness, particularly if you're making tea. Place the jasmine buds on a baking sheet and set the oven to 200F (93C). Keep the buds in the oven for 2-3 hours or until the jasmine buds are completely dry to the touch. You can store the dried jasmine buds in an airtight container to help them last longer. Bring a kettle of water to a boil and steep the jasmine in the water for about 2-5 minutes. After steeping the water, turn off the stove and pour the water into a cup to serve. The ratio of jasmine buds to water should be about 1 tablespoon (15mL) to 8 ounces (230g). You can also mix the jasmine buds with black or green tea leaves for a stronger flavor.
A: Harvest jasmine Pluck green, unopened jasmine buds at the stem. Dry the jasmine buds in an oven. Steep the dried jasmine buds in water to make herbal tea.

Article: Prune your weigela plant after the threat of frost is over, sometime in the late fall or early spring. You can prune the weigela before it blooms to promote more flowers this year or after it blooms to promote stronger growth during the next blooming season. Weigela should not be pruned after mid-July. Over-pruning a weigela plant can weaken or even kill it. Never prune more than 1/3rd of the entire plant in a single season. If you need to remove a lot of growth, do it gradually over the course of several seasons. Weigela is prone to growing wispy and weak looking branches with a lot of offshoots. This can detract from the natural beauty of the weigela blooms. To prevent these types of branches from taking over your plant, you should prune it once a year. Sharp shears will prevent damage to the weigela plant. Wipe down the shears with rubbing alcohol after each cut to prevent the transmission of disease to other plants. If your shears are breaking or snapping the branches rather than cutting straight through, purchase new ones. An upward facing bud will continue to grow out and upward, while a downward facing bud will grow downward. Cutting the branch immediately above a bud will allow you to control the direction that it grows in. If you are pruning to maintain the look of your weigela plant, keep this in mind.

Prune weigela in the late fall or early spring. Never prune more than 1/3rd of the plant at a time. Prune weigela once a year. Use sharp, sterilized pruning shears. Prune branches above a bud to control the direction of growth.

Problem: Article: You can do this as you would normally, listening to music on a stereo or through the speakers of your car. Avoid putting headphones directly on your stomach, as this can overstimulate your unborn child. The recommended volume for your child to best enjoy music that you play should be at about the level of the ambient noise made by a washing machine. Children begin to hear and make sense of sound in the womb at about 25 weeks into your pregnancy. Exposing your child to music in the womb does not guarantee that your child will be mathematically inclined or musically apt. But by engaging your child with sound, you give it practice at discerning differences in it. Simple melodies will be less overwhelming for your child. Consider songs you might put your baby to sleep with, or childhood songs like: The ABC songYou are my SunshineHush Little BabyTwinkle Twinkle Little Star Children can recognize the voices of parents and other family members that it has heard while in the womb. By talking to your baby or reading them books, you will help them begin learning about sound while still in the womb. Different languages follow different rules of stress and intonation. Studies have shown that your newborn will have the ability to identify their native tongue, so they might benefit from being familiarized with other languages. You might consider: Watching foreign films. Sitting in on classes teaching language. Doing light volunteer work with an ethnically oriented outreach program. While it is unlikely that your child will learn the song you are singing in the way young children or adults do, familiarization with common childhood songs may encourage their learning of it after being born. There are many songs for you to choose from, including: One Two, Buckle my Shoe One Potato, Two Potato Three Little Piggies Months of the Year Song
Summary: Play music. Talk to your baby while you are pregnant. Find a multilingual environment. Sing educational songs.

Q: Band t-shirts should be the number one item in your wardrobe. You should have more of these than anything else. After all, being emo is all about the music and showing support for the bands you care about. Tour t-shirts that you actually bought at the band's gig are best, but t-shirts bought in stores or online will do as well. They should be as tight as possible (while still actually fitting), and girls can knot up the ends or cut out the backs to expose a little skin, if desired. Some classic emo bands whose t-shirts would make cool additions to your wardrobe and lend you some emo cred (provided you actually listen to the music) are: The Promise Ring, The Get Up Kids, Sunny Day Real Estate, Texas is the Reason, Rites of Spring, Braid, Thursday and Cursive. Tight jeans are essential to completing the emo look. If you're skinny, wearing skinny jeans is recommended. However, skinny jeans have been what some emos (especially guys) get made fun of for. Who cares, they look good, right? So stand up to the haters and wear your skinny jeans with pride! Opt for black or blue, and if it's got a few rips and holes in it, all the better. Although skinny jeans (which are tight all the way to the ankles) are probably the most common, tight jeans can also look good. Even though you want your jeans to be tight, they should still fit you properly. Jeans that are too tight will be uncomfortable and hot and you won't enjoy wearing them. Plus, jeans that fit you properly will look better too. Girls can substitute skinny jeans for skirts and tights, if they like. They skirts will usually be short and black, though sometimes a tutu style is worn, and tights can either be plain black, colored or patterned. Feel free to experiment! What you put on your feet is just as important as what you wear, so take some time to consider your shoes. The classic choice is Converse high-tops, which should be as dirty and worn in as possible. If Converse aren't your thing, skate shoes like Vans, Etnies and Circa are popular alternatives. Even if your shoes are brand new, you should take some time to go jump in the mud and use a permanent marker or white-out to draw or write graffiti all over them. Adding patterned or brightly colored laces is another way to funk up your shoes, allowing them to reflect your personality. Even emos get cold, so when you need to layer up, opt for worn-out army jackets and black band hoodies. These look great layered over shirts and band tees, but can really be worn over any outfit you like, which makes them a great investment. Authentic combat-green army jackets can be found in thrift stores or online and look great loaded with pins and iron-on patches. Black band hoodies are easy to get your hands on and provide another opportunity to profess your love of a particular band. They should also be worn tight and with the hood up, if you want to look brooding.
A:
Always wear band t-shirts. Invest in a few pairs of tight jeans. Get your hands on the appropriate footwear. Wear army jackets or black band hoodies.
