Jack nodded and said,
'Okay. Sounds good to me. We'd best get started. Why don't you come over here because I have everything set up?' and thought to himself...
well, if you didn't have your head out on the Quidditch Pitch, you wouldn't be so far behind. SPOILER!!: Jack's Notes
STANDARD CLASS XX POTION BASE
STEP ONE:
Purified water, 4 ounces
Fluxweed, two bunches- finely crushed
Lovage pollen - 2 drams
3 lovage seeds, whole
Bloodroot, 3 roots- split lengthwise, scrape inner membrane out
Apple cider, 8 ounces
Lionfish heart, minced
Griffin dandruff, 1 dram
Warm water until just before boiling.
Crush fluxweed with mortar and pestle, add to water. Allow to come to a brisk boil.
Add lovage pollen, stir until dissolved.
Potion should take on a light golden colour.
Stir slowly, alternating clockwise and counterclockwise stirs
bring potion back up to a boil and allow to simmer 5 minutes
Add inner membrane ONLY of bloodroots; do NOT include the tough outer membrane of the root!!!
Add apple cider and lionfish heart; potion should take on an iridescent sheen and a light pink to purple cast
Add griffin dandruff and simmer until your potion takes on a deep pink to red sheen.
DO NOT GO FORWARD, wait for further instructions.
Bella saw him walk towards her.she gave a guilty smile
um...actually i am a bit ahead.i have almost done with boiling part and simmering part.i am left to do with the bloodroots and the rest she said
it was better to act normally with the prefects then to show over confidence with them
and the color is light yellow,though it should be gold by now,but i dont know where i went wrong Bella said thinking
the procedure done by bella till now:

Isabella waited for long but then she gave up and began to work over the potion.setting the cauldron on the burner she warmed the water.as the water took time to warm she crushed the fluxweed and then added to the water to boil. as the water boiled Bella measured 2 drams of loveage pollen and then added it to the boiling water and flux weed solution and stirred it till it dissolved.she looked at her watch and it was already half an hour from the time she began her work on the potion.checking the instructions again she observed her potion which by now was not exactly light golden in color as expected but was a bit like yellow.slightly disappointed she stirred the potion alternating with clock and counter clock wise stirs.she had no idea for how many such stirrs she was to make so she did about seven times.she waited to see if there would be any color change.and well there was there was lightening of the yellow.not thorougly as expected but it was better then having yellow potion in the cauldron.then she bent down to turn the burner to higher level to let the potion in the cauldron boil and simmer...
