FB3X Drabble Cascade #52 - Science
Title: The First Day of Class (Wizard's World 'Verse, G)
Author: charisstoma
Word count: 100
Prompt:Science
Off to one side of the room, Adrian leaned with casual superiority against a book shelf looking like he owned the room which in a way he did since Arnold, the professor of the class, was his. The class was comprised of Second Years so they should know a familiar by sight but most covertly glanced at the tawny haired youth with uncertain curiosity, ‘Why was another student not at a desk?’
“Class,” Arnold said to get their attention, “This is Familiar Science. So tell me the characteristics of a familiar.”
“They look like a cat, sir.”
Arnold smiled, “Only sometimes.”

Soda Bottle Drip Feeder
Mar. 17th, 2014 08:34 pmSoda Bottle Drip Feeder is a great DIY Project
Drip feeders are great for a variety of different vegetables. Most vegetables prefer the moisture at their roots rather than overhead sprinklers which can encourage some leaf problems. There are many retail products available but this Soda Bottle Drip Feeder makes use or recycled materials and works really well.
Just take a large 2 liter soda bottle and use barbeque skewers to poke holes in it. (I’d use less holes than this image shows so that it would be a very slow release but it depends on how dry your soil gets.)
Insert the soda bottle into the space next to the plant when it is young and leave the top off. Leave the top exposed. When it gets empty, just top it up from the hose. (Personally, I'd paint the lid bright red so I could find it easier)
This is a great image shared from a Russian Gardening page that demonstrates the project well.
I found myself looking at the text on the Russian site which is silly because I haven't a clue about the Russian language. Really want to know what it says but I'm guessing it's probably very similar to the English here just with more words. Have read that you can do things like this better with a nail and hammer with the bottle temporarily filled with frozen water to lend the sides more stability against impact.
You could also put compost tea/manure tea/liquid fertilizer in the bottle.
