I drop 10 autos down / around a spring I have on the back side of of my place.. they came up and was doing good these I was just letting grow on there own and I went to check on them and there gone... they were 6 weeks old:(,
when i was gorrila growing ,i always sprinkled blood meal around the area,deer and many others dont like the smell,i have right at 45 deer that come to the fence for there goodies twice a day,only way i keep them off and out of my gardens is feeding them,we have 2 that will let mama pet there velvet horns right now hahaah,i have had quite a bit experience watching them grow ,fight ,sick and daily patterns of feeding and what not,my fence on the top by house were we hand feed is only 5 ft tall,one jumped it in 3 years been here,if you want to keep deer out of your garden ,this i can say is the only thing that works hands down,jumping isnt even a factor,but the landing is,i put my containers right at 4 ft from fence,they dont look at what they have to jump but instead look for what they will land on,ive watched them case the [place and fences out like a bank robber hahaahh,they wont jump it,containers are too close.
next year plan for this,use reg seeds and plant a bunch,build a make shift ring from sticks and twigs,dont use foilage they will eat it and stomp right threw the brush to get to it,with no leaves ,no food if you dig,so not even wanted,as the brush settles add more,like a ring of fire with a access to get in and out,dont put plants together,they will clean them out,deer are very lazy and always shoot for condensed area to feed
if they havent got in from this side,a tpost about 4 ft from that fence were they can see it,they wont jump there im telling you for sure ,one got skaird and cleared my 10 ft fence around the back side of garden,then you know it better to keep the front side with some totes they wont jump,they will clear a a 10ft fence with ease but they wont jump were they know it gonna hurt,i havent had any more jump the fence yet been 2 yrs now,these tote i grow in are 4 ft from fence and if they do well best to die doing itOldschool This is the 4ft fence I have around 1 ac, well 1st I have 6' chain link fence for the dog pens.. but then I have this around 1 ac. then I have a 3 wire elc fence around 3 ac. I'll be growing right within the 1st ac next yr. these were just a hell Mary.... 30 acs away..... lol

That would suck.. My plant got way bigger than expected. I put cattle pannels all the way around. when it grew over them i put barb wire a couple feet out side the panels. i put some pics on grasscity and they called me ripper cuz the pics were taken from over a fence. They also said the barb wire was unnecessary but i dont think soI drop 10 autos down / around a spring I have on the back side of of my place.. they came up and was doing good these I was just letting grow on there own and I went to check on them and there gone... they were 6 weeks old:(, View attachment 892819View attachment 892821View attachment 892822View attachment 892823
