DAMN GROUNDHOGS!

[Purple Banana]

The climate where I am at is very very warm, so I plant at the end of july, but I have one problem.

Depsite all of the fences, sprays, and human hair and blood I place around my babies (I don't really have to worry about the popo; I am only growing a dozen plants in the middle of my 120 acre farm), groundhogs ALWAYS chew off the tiny leaves that are first sprouting.

A. What ELSE can I do to prevent this?

B. What are the chances of my plants surviving if the first leaves are chewed off, but the rest are left alone?

Its called a fence, Look in to one at a local home depot.

If you read his post you wouldve read despite all the FENCES he puts up. Im from australia and have no clue what a groundhog is but im guessing it burrows? maybe dig a trench about 1 foot deep (if theyre that shallow) and line it with chicken wire?

I have tried chicken wire, and it digs it up (I buried it 2 feet below ground) so I'm transplanting them to inside an old boat that sits up high in my yard, they've handled it well.

PS: I'm a girl ;)
