Gardening

the deer. We had to replant the purple hull peas this year. Right after the broke the ground and got just a few sets of leaves, they came one night and eat them to the ground. They left the stems but after about a week they didn't seem to be coming back so we raked the mulch back and replanted the entire row right next to the original one. I then put up the electric fence and haven't had any problems again (knock wood). I used t-posts on the corners and then fiberglass poles that I already had - they take two strands of wire. Then I took a big roll of red weed eater cord that a neighbor gave me years ago which I have never used and put it at the top of the tposts. I read that they would not jump a red string or line? Seems to be working? Although in years past I only used the 2-strand bare wire and it worked.

I have a 20 mile AC charger that I used to use for the steers, and it will really bite you - I figure if they get stung once they probably wouldn't try again.

Not sure what I would do about those pesky rabbits 😁 or chipmonks?
