New method to keep deer away

[auntiesocial]

Besides, you dont necessarily have to shoot the animals. Just find dead ones or buy cheap ones and kill them.

Oh yeah, that is much better.

I wonder what the karmic effects of killing animals to harvest their stench might be?

Anywho, I could name a myriad of practical ways to keep deer from eating cannabis, none of which cause the death of several other wild animals. Animals, I might add, that contribute in known and unknown ways to the ecosystem that provides the medium you borrow to grow in.

Besides, any idgit knows stinking carcases do more than attract carnivores. They also attract possums, rats, raccoons,....scavengers. Scavengers that will find cannabis to be a nice desert item.

Bad idea on so many levels.

Possums, rats, and raccoons are of no danger to anyones crop. They are scavangers as you said, they eat roadkill and trash, fruits and vegetables, not green vegetation. As far as cruelty to animals, I live in rural Michigan man, we kill everything thats not protected by law up here, and if I can kill something to use it to protect my crop, Im all about it. Bottom line is, this isnt something I just thought up, this has been used for decades by growers with far more experiance than any of us...it works.

Is anyone here farmiliar with an organic additive for soil called Milorganite?? Someone I know has a lot of deer come into his property and stomp on his wife's garden. He uses this stuff and has not seen a deer since. This has been many many years now.

I told a grower friend of mine and he started using it. After use he has not seen one deer since. Sometimes after a very heavy rain he has to re-lay it (it is like a fertilizer), but it has been 100% effective for him this year.

PS. The active ingredient that us growers are looking for in Milorganite is human waste. I believe the human remains can be smelt by the deer in the soil and they regard it as a smell they are not willing to investigate. This human shit also contains high organic nitrogen, which good growers know is ideal for plants in their vegatative state. Killer combo.

Either way, I do not use it, but have a grower friend that swears by it. If you are strapped for cash, and putting up a fence is not an option (I use a fence), then Milorganite is probably right for you.

Hmm, today at the Hardware store I saw some Liquid Fence Deer Repellent, probably going to try that out this year.

Ive had some type of animal dig up my plants before, Im almost certain it wasnt a deer because the plant wasnt touched, just dug up. I think there was something in the soil the animal liked, maybe peat, I guessed it was a raccoon. Maybe a groundhog.

Anyone know what type of animal would do that?

Yup it works great until it rains. I dont like visiting my plants every other day.

last year the deer killed my plot, and i used hair and piss, i'd recommend high strength fishing line. the one plant that i harvested last yr was attacked 3 times by deer, piss and hair just isn't secure enough for me.

Did you put blood meal ferts in the soil? Racoon's or possums would dig looking for the smell.
