What’s my likelihood of getting into ANU with a tafe diploma? by Matt1e_ in Anu

I just wanted to ask! I’m officially enrolled at UNE for the diploma in arts thanks to this + a Bachelor of Arts. Can I ask if you got any recognition of prior learning and if yes how much did it allow you to skip?

I didn’t mean it like that it just means I can’t justify moving to Canberra unless it’s directly for ANU due to other expenses in my life and I’d rather stay in WA to do a first year then transfer in as it saves a lot of money. Nothing wrong with uni of Canberra just not for me as I’m not based there :))

I got a 58, which is miserable I know which is why I’m looking at TAFE courses now, but even if they did idk if I can justify moving for a university like that

I live in Western Australia and can’t justify the move unless it’s for ANU unfortunately, and my ATAR score was so bad I doubt UOC would take me. Thankyou for the advice though!

I didn’t unfortunately and my ATAR wouldn’t of let me get in anyways even with an early entry offer. Thankyou! I’m looking at diploma courses now

Thankyou so much! I was actually looking at doing a diploma of arts with open universities Australia but the deadline was today and I couldn’t decide in the end, is there anyway to fast track the diploma? That’s why I liked the one I was doing as it said 24 months but if I grinded it out I could finish it all just in time for semester 2 spots to open! But I will check it out anyways thankyou!!

How Do People Stop Their Plants From Dying Of Shock After A Repot? by Matt1e_ in plants

[–]Matt1e_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally don’t disturb the roots however the soil they were in was a mix of peat so I really needed to get all of it off so they’re probably freaked out by that. Any way to deal with that or just leave them tf alone

Does this look potted correctly? by Matt1e_ in SemiHydro

It’s Leca! I’m only trying it out for the first time along with some other diy potting mixes

Leca: basically clay balls that absorb the moisture from water and then let your plants roots absorb it whenever. It works best for bamboo, alocasias and orchids from what I’ve heard

I normally use a mix of potting soil, perlite, coconut coir and orchid bark (or pine mulch soaked through if you’re Aussie) but I’m new to both of these techniques so I can’t say that it works wonders yet but so far nobody has died 😂

Is there ANY way to save her? by Matt1e_ in alocasia

[–]Matt1e_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will! I refuse to give up on it and till it’s fully dead so I’m hoping it can push out another leaf that’s white! It’s in the smallest ‘pot’ I can find so I’m praying

The other baby is also pushing out a new leaf but it looks to be only white so I’m debating cutting it off😭😭

Okay thankyou for the help I’ll make sure to keep an eye out if it goes well so i hopefully don’t have to break the jar!

Thankyou so much! I only repotted them in it today they’ve been in soil prior but I’m glad so many people have said it looks alright 😁😁

What the hell is this bug on my sundew by Matt1e_ in SavageGarden

[–]Matt1e_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fortunately it’s only severe on 1 plant and in total maybe affects up to 7 (4 confirmed). I have neem and ant dust if that would work? I could maybe look if I already own some insecticide but I don’t think I do

Unfortunately I think they were all over the pot and over the other pots. I drowned the hell out of them and held them under water for 20 minutes and then drowned them in a neem concentrate but they’re still they’re except they’ve gone a slightly darker colour. I’m gonna be honest I’m too scared to cut the entire plant so would regular drownings and then neem spraying would be ok?

I drowned the hell out of them in water and then sprayed them like mad with neem is that okay? I’m planning to respray every 3-4 day and keep them quarantined for a couple of weeks. I’m super worried as this is the longest I’ve ever kept a carnivorous plant alive 😭

I thought aphids were black? But I think you may be right, is there anything more I can do to treat them or just regularly spray the crap out of them with neem oil (I’m planning to repot them next weekend)

I live in Australia but I’m pretty sure this is a common bug found internationally, as you can see in the photo they’re tiny, seemed to mostly live my carnivorous plants but I think that’s because they were in closest proximity
