Sidney watches Professor Lefay demonstrate the process. It looks very complicated and easy to mess up. She pulls out her morter and pestle and moves the mandrake leaves to within easy reach.

Quote:
SPOILER!!: potion directions
Capillation Potion


1 galleon pumpkin juice
4 oz. flobber worm mucus
8 drops of lavender essence
1 cup Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica)
5 mandrake leaves (adult plants)
6 spoons honey
12 fluxweed seeds
1 sprig pepperment
1 drop re’em blood
3 knotgrass blossoms
3 rats tails
10 drops Saw Palmetto Extract
2oz. Zinc

Clean your cauldron.
Add the pumpkin juice
Turn on the fire
Bring the pumpkin juice to a simmer
With a wooden spoon from your potion kit, take the mucus and stir it into the potion.
Add drops of lavender essence
Use goggles and dragonhide gloves for this step
Add the Gotu Kola and magically stir potion 9 times clockwise, one time counterclockwise.
At the same time you place one mandrake leaf in your mortor and crush it with the pestle at the same time using the same motion as the stirring. You add the mandrake leaf when you do the one counterclockwise turn. Repeat until all five leaves have been added to the potion
Sidney writes the directions down in her journal, says a small prayer, and gets started. She places a leaf in the mortar. Sidney then puts her wand in her left hand and performs the Locomotor Charm. I hope this works. My right arm is my dominent arm. She picks up the pestal. Then Sidney starts moving her wand in a circular direction while she crushes the mandrake leaf. Five, six, seven, eight.... Sidney looks down at her mortar. Thankfully the leaf is crushed. "Nine..." Sidney picks up her mortar and empties the leaf into the potion, then starts her wand moving in a counterclockwise direction one time. She then breathes a short sigh of relief, and starts the process over again.


OOC:Please point out to me if I wrote the directions wrong. I had trouble paraphrasing your comments.
