Well, im suffering deer attacks on my 5' plants and my theory of deer predation has been proven once again. And folks, i live in an area of the US with the highest concentration of white tail deer in the world, with 45-50 deer per square mile and in my view, thats an undercount. On any given day, i can count 20-30 deer grazing in fields right along side the cows, when walking to my grow.
Drought.
When there's lots of green shoots, alphalfa and clover, when there's been plenty of rain, deer would choose to eat their native foods as opposed to my cannabis plants. But when it gets bone dry and the green shoots dont grow and the clover dies, look out.
The only product ive found to have any effect at all is "brown eyed susan tea". Deer dont eat BESusans becuase of an astringent chemical the flower produces and im guessing when you spray the plant with the tea, the deer thinks its a BESusan and doesnt touch it.
But Ive had deer eat my plants while still dripping Deer Away. You might as well pour wolf piss, your piss, the dogs piss, mothballs and all of the other useless products out the door. They only work when the deer doesnt really want your pllants anyway. But let drought hit and look out.
