i planted about 90 seeds outside somewhere in the middle of nowhere about almost a month ago. after the first couple of days go by i come to check up on them and i almost pissed my pants. i see two deers(i dont see to many deers)mauling the shit out of my site. so im thinking damn that was a waste of time but i go back and check on the site a week later just incase anything happened. to my suprise theirs like 5 or 6 4"-6" inch healthy looking plants. but the problem is maybe their was a delay or something cuz theirs about 40-50 young little plants all around everywhere. so do u think it would for the best to pluck all of those little plants out of the ground and focus on the 5 or 6 good looking ones. cuz from my understanding one male can fuk it all up and i can end up having a sausage party. what do u think?

why would you plant 90 seeds then pluc all but 5? they all have the same chance of being male(50/50) grow them out until they show sex then get rid of males. there is no reason to kill seedlings just because they might turn out male. if you are that worried about males then use clones.

Your best bet about deers and other animals is CHICKEN wire... I had a friend who frew hundreads of plants in the wild never got caught never got jacked never got eaten.... Trust me chickenwire will save your babies

use the green coated wire so it is harder for potential rippers to spot

My thought exactly....
build a fence asap!!!!

you may also want to fill a few peanut butter lids full of beer and place it around your plants as well.. this will drown snails and slugs and other alcoholic bugs...

Man, that's why outdoor growing would just stress me out too much. Deer, bugs, thieves...fuck...

Good luck, though, dude.

does pissing a circle a couple of feet around your plant really push off deer?

i mena a circle with at least a foot between the plant and the piss lol
