Kick In The Balls

Well this is my first post but i have been reading up very hard on the stickies. Well lets just say the jist of my story is i had about 10 plants that were up to 3 inches high, they were getting too obvious at my house so i transported this in peat moss pots to the back woods and let them go for 3 days. Well I just got back from looking at them and they had been dug up and looks to have been eatten. Is this a common problem or what?

Insects, maybe even rabbits. Or someone walked by and snatched your plants .

No man i had them way i then back of the woods, my money is rabbits for sure.

they need to be vegged for 1 month + before hardening them off gradually. Once they are completely hardened off they are going to do well outside most likely. They might be too big for rabbits to devour but deers on the other hand...

Very common for outddor growing. In fact, the same thing happened to me just a few days ago. The plants were completely dug up. Since they were in the woods, I'm thinking it was deer or rabbits. Moral of the story is: the forest is not a safe haven for young pot plants.

bieve it or not raccoons and possums are the worst for young plants ouside...Oddly enough you can use ground up red pepper n black pepper ect n sprinkle around them.but the effect will only last for a day or 2
