the project I like to call, "Spend lots of money planting a garden only to have it destroyed by deer yet again" has started.

on the table so far

60 Cucumber sprouts.

36 sweet corn which just broke the surface

36 Misc hot pepper plants

(no picture of these, they haven't broken the surface yet

 

36 Beef Steak tomato

(also no pictures, since they are being stubborn)

 

and a TON of misc. flowers

 

Also, we have 4 new Raspberry bushes that aren't likely to produce fruit until next year.

 

on the list to try to grow yet.....

onion, garlic, cherry tomatoes, green/red peppers.

 

Auto out-

@Lala, have you ever tried to fence out a deer? it's like keeping Nogame away from a pitcher of beer with a sign that says "please don't drink the beer"

@H2, I have decided I will be getting my hunting license this year, and for the first time ever I will be applying for doe tags, they are starting to get a bit overpopulated in our area. @ Buckeye, yes, that is a good word.

Have you tried using something like a predator urine to keep away the deer? or a motion activated flood light/loud noise type thingy? Just wondering.

@Raider, we had outside cats for a long time so I got into the habit of not using coyote urine so we didn't attract them, but now that those cats passed on, I may have to give it a shot.
