I am listening to the Half Blood Prince and am at the part after
when Harry managed to get the memory from Slughorn and
then was wondering if he could use it to get into the Room of
Requirement.  Ron mentions that it would be nice to have a
supply of it and Harry looks up the directions on how to make
it.  The directions say that it has to brew for 6 months.  But that
is inconsistent with the beginning of the story when Dumbledore
and Harry go to convince Slughorn to come to Hogwarts.  It was
during Harry's summer vacation, so there would not have been
6 months available for Slughorn to brew the potion for his first
potions lesson, unless he was already brewing it back in the
borrowed house.  It would seem very unlikely for him to do so,
as he had only taken the potion twice in his life and was living
in a house that was not his own (i.e., he had none of his own
tools and ingredients).

Did I miss something?
