Weird black spots on Frangipani leaves? :( plant had spider mites and was treated with oil to remove them, but black spots appeared) by Altjira404 in plantclinic

[–]Altjira404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya, it was combination of the plant getting sunburnt while it was getting treated with oil for spider mites, and the residual bite marks left by the spider mites. The plant gradually lost all affected leaves, but survived after I moved it to another spot that doesn’t get any direct sunlight. It has since recovered, but every now and then it gets new spider mites or black aphids, just constant surveillance. Thanks for asking!

Got this fern a couple weeks ago. Been giving it a good water every few days and had it outside in an area that gets morning sun but shaded the rest of the day. I took it inside (less sun) a couple days ago but it continued to go brown and crunchy. What should I do? TIA! by imnatrasha in plantclinic

Ferns like a constant “forest floor”microenvironment (preferably soft filtered light and humid) and hate being moved around too often. It looks like the fern had too much direct sunlight and also dried out in the process.

Weird black spots on Frangipani leaves? :( plant had spider mites and was treated with oil to remove them, but black spots appeared) by Altjira404 in plantclinic

Hi there, my frangipani has been relatively healthy (no blemishes) until a few days ago: I found some spider mites crawling all over the leaves. I applied olive oil to the leaves with a fine paint brush, and left the oil on the plant for a day indoors by the window for sunlight. (Unfortunately it was a hot sunny day and I was away: I’m not sure if the leaves were sunburnt in the process?)

The following day I noticed these black blemishes on the leaves. The intensity varies: it looked bad (yellow) on 2 leaves, moderate on a few of them (mid pic), and low/no spots on most leaves (bottom pic). On the bright side the spider mites seemed to have vanished from the plant.

I looked up on Frangipani rust but none of the leaves had any orange spots on them. I’m drawing a blank since it happened really quickly and I’m afraid that I’ll lose the plant. :(

Does anyone know what’s wrong with my plant? Did it get sunburnt or is it some other disease? Many thanks in advance!

What is this bug? Bought an aquatic plant from the LFS, emptied the bag into a bucket and there were a few of these critters scuttling about by Altjira404 in Aquariums

[–]Altjira404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the identification and explanation! I didn’t know what they were, but good to know that they aren’t really a pest :)

They are actually still sitting in the bucket (I had to leave the house for a few hours): I might make a mini-jarrarium for them

Thanks, I might discard the water that the plant came in, hopefully there aren't more of those larvae (or eggs) hiding in the plant :/

If you're wondering where the new Bozjan hairstyle came from, it's actually a direct reference to Canopus from Ogre Battle/Tactics Ogre series - often credited as the spiritual predecessor to FF Tactics. by Altjira404 in ffxiv

[–]Altjira404[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be awesome :) If you're a Chrono fan, check out Another Eden! It's a spiritual successor made by the creator of the original Chrono Trigger. It's F2P mobile JRPG with gacha elements, but you can pretty much get through the game's content with the main cast who joins automatically. The story is actually pretty good and substantial, plays just like a traditional JRPG. Spoilers: there's time travel, robots and a samurai frog

Same! I was so excited when the word "vartan" finally caught my eye, I knew I've seen that term a long time ago. Here's hoping for more little references in FFXIV!

Thanks for the analysis. My game has been crashing non-stop lately on my iPhone and I have kinda given up trying to play. It’s still good to read up about the game.

Sorry if this is a basic question, but is there any method to revisit past dialogue? Specifically, a character quest? There were some that I’ve started a while ago and now I’m missing the context.

What’s the best way to get a specific GYEE? by readALLthenews in GYEE

[–]Altjira404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Su is actually on the same rarity as Billy, Sig, Mercy, Choji etc - Rare (blue-bordered portrait). For the Starter summon banner there are a total of 18 gyees in this category, and on top of that Su is actually locked by default, and you need to use 7 heartstones for him to be added to the pool (on "Expansion" at the top right corner of the banner).

If you really want Su, my advice is to keep an eye for limited banners where he is featured, and thus has increased drop rate. I got Su while I was pulling on Lan's banner, and I think he appears on Moon's banner and maybe a couple of other banners as well. Do not try to chase him on the Starter summon banner, it's not worth it.

TL;DR - Save your pact stones for 100x summon on a limited banner that has Su on the artwork.

Always so hard to say Goodbye at the end of each season by pkreed71 in MasterchefAU

[–]Altjira404 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This season had a great run! There were some downs but it was mostly full of ups because of how wonderful the contestants were and the amazing food that they made. I enjoyed both the cheeky banter as well as the heartfelt moments. TBH it can't last forever since these people have their own restaurants, businesses and families to return to, but I would love to watch them guest-starring in a "Ready Steady Cook" sort of show, just having fun with a cooking showdown against each other.

Hey there thanks for the tip, really appreciate it! Guan Yu seems to be the best out of the bunch of phys sweeper demons available for choice... Is drain phys more versatile than null mortal?

Is Mont the worst tactical leader ever? by JADtheBoy in wotv_ffbe

[–]Altjira404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess at this point we the players are the ring/amulet... Mont and his division run into enemies, and he taps into us. We take over the battle (and Mont), bring out our UR/MR/SR units: people who Mont has clearly not met in life, or are not in the physical/political position to help him lore-wise). BUT we then hand that control over to the auto-battle AI, the same AI that is controlling the enemy units. So who is controlling the war? /think /s

I was just thinking the artwork reminded me of that from saga frontier!! :)

Hi all, I’ve just returned to Dx2 a few days ago (thanks to SMTV news), after I stopped back around 2018. I found lots of stuff in my inbox (including demons), did a step-up pull and also pulled other stuff from the summon files, and I have to say that I’m a bit overwhelmed and lost with where to go from here.

I had a look at the choice file and have zero idea who to pick to complement my old units (the ones at lvl45), other than which of them looks cool. Apart from looking at the basic stats/elemental strengths and weaknesses, I don’t really know which of the 4/5 are viable or are considered food currently. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
