In my neighborhood deer will eat small vegging plants on site, as will rabbits,woodchucks. They don’t make it 3 nights.
Your setting yourself up for a let down if you don’t defend against herbivores. That’s 24” of chicken wire at the base of a 5’ cage
have had pheasants destroy young plants as well as deer and rabbits and woodchucks
I only have to worry about two legged animals in my back yard.
Thanks, good advice. There certainly are a ton of critters where I am going to do this. Deer on my lawn are really common.
sounds like you got some poor climate. i do not think deer will be a problem. how ever varmit will be a problem. depending on the nutes you use. would be a goog idea. to put a low fence around them to keep varmits away.
Bugs is all I can think of but that’s a given on outside grows …an auto popped up in my vegetable garden last year, first auto for me…I don’t know how it got there and I definitely didn’t put it there. The auto flowered around late June and in zone 5 pot plants would start flowering in mid August…the rest of my pot plant started flowering the 2nd. week of August.
Sativa Dominant Auto
This one I planted chopped down around November
Wish something like that would pop up in my garden!
