Q: After 5 to 7 days, your celery stalk base should have begun to grow new shoots and should be ready to transfer into a pot with soil. There are a few signs that indicate that your celery stalk is ready to be transplanted. The outside of the celery stalk base should have begun to brown and break down. While the appearance may be concerning, this is a normal and essential part of the growth process. The old celery stalk breaks down in order to create natural nutrients for the new stalk to grow. Tiny sprouts of new growth have begun to spring up. This is a sure sign that the celery stalk is producing new growth and is ready to be transplanted. You will want to use your own judgement here, as the exact amount of potting soil needed will vary depending on the size of your celery stalk. The size of the planting pot will also vary depending on how wide your celery stalk base is. On average, a celery stalk base is about 4 inches (10cm) wide. To allow room for the celery to grow, you will likely want to choose a planting pot that is at least 6 inches (15cm) wide and 5 inches (13cm) tall. The goal is to fill the pot with enough soil so that you can add more around and on top of the celery stalk base so that only the new sprouts are sticking out. Gently lift your celery stalk out of the bowl and place it in the center of your planting pot on top of the potting soil. Adding just a little at a time, slowly cover the original celery stalk base with new soil, leaving only the new celery shoots sticking out at the top. While you want to be careful not to overwater your plant, it is crucial that your celery plant continues to get plenty of water so that it can continue to flourish. While there is no steadfast rule about how often you should water your celery plant, there are a few ways to ensure that your plant is getting the water it needs. Check if the soil is dry. If there is little moisture to the touch, your plant probably needs to be watered. Examine the growing celery for deterioration, yellowing, or brown spots. If any of these are present, your celery is not getting the water it needs. Celery requires a lot of water to grow strong, so if your new growth shoots appear discolored, dry, or small, water more often or use a spray bottle daily. With the proper amount of sunlight and water, your celery stalk will grow into a new celery plant that can be harvested, eaten, and enjoyed! Usually, it takes about 5 months from the time that you first cut the original celery stalk for the new plant to grow completely. After you have harvested your new celery plant, you can repeat this process and grow more celery at no additional cost.
A: Check your celery for signs that it is ready to be transplanted. Fill about 2/3 of the planting pot with high quality general use potting soil. Plant the celery stalk in the potting soil. Water your new celery plant generously. Watch as your celery stalk grows into a new celery plant.

Q: The Bible tells us that we should keep an open line of communication with God at all times, thanking Him for all He does. Not only will this help strengthen your relationship with God, but if you're constantly looking for things to be grateful for, you'll be more likely to find them. In 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, the Bible says: "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." In addition to maintaining a general spirit of gratitude, try to remember to stop and praise God for the big, life-changing events that come along. Be humble about even the biggest blessings, because as the Bible reminds us in James 1:17, "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father." Major blessings might include things like meeting the love of your life, getting a major promotion, finding out that you're expecting a child, or receiving an unexpected, meaningful gift. A prayer of thanks after a blessing might be something like: "Heavenly Father, I am so humbled that you have blessed me with the gift of a child. I thank you with my whole heart. Please protect my unborn baby and give me wisdom to be a good parent. Amen." While it's important to remember to thank God for major blessings, you should also pray any time something small makes you think of Him. For instance, you might say a short prayer of thanks because you caught a glimpse of a gorgeous sunset, or after you got a really nice compliment from a stranger when you were having a bad day. Psalms 7:17 says: "I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds." For instance, if you see one person doing a kind act for another, you might say a short prayer like, "Father, thank You for allowing me to see people showing each other the same love You have for us." Even when you're having trouble counting the blessings in your life, you can always be grateful for God's love. In fact, in 1 John 4:16, the Bible says that God IS love. No matter what else is going on, that's always something you should try to appreciate. In Psalms 118:29, the Bible also says: "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good, His love endures forever." For instance, you might pray something like, "Dear God, I'm having a hard time today, but I know that You are watching over me. Thank You for Your unconditional, unfailing love, and please help to uplift my spirit. Amen." Even if things are going well, you can still pray to God to thank Him for loving you.
A:
Thank God continuously throughout your day. Offer a special prayer of thanks after major blessings. Say a quick prayer after small blessings, as well. Give thanks for God's love even when you can't find another blessing.
