problem

[zekeyboy]

I went out to check my babies today and saw a rabbit near my plants. He ran when he saw me, but anyway, when I looked at my plants, he had eaten about 5 of them. He ate every sucker leave, all the way up on all 5. They had about 6 or 7 sets of leaves. All he left was the 2 leaves at the very top and the tip. Will they make it, or do I need to start more? It's June 2. Thanks.

shootin' a bunny is easy! when he see's you he should take off hopping, they almost always stop after a few hops. bang! pull the trigger. the key is to follow them in your sights, they almost always stop.


p.s. if you got more seeds I'd sprout a couple just incase.

Thanks. Anyone ever had a bunny problem? If so, what can I do? What worked best for you? And it might get my neighbors attention if I were to go out shooting a shotgun. lol!! That's all I have. Cant take that chance.

We have a very large and ravenous bunny population around my land. The solution below has not been used by us for MJ cultivation, but there isn't any reason I can think of why it wouldn't work for MJ plants. We use this solution for all sorts of plants, from tomatoes to pumpkins to strawberries...you get the idea. So far, the rabbits haven't defeated them, so we keep using them.

Here's our solution: Make chicken wire cylinders that are at least 12 inches tall and [whatever diameter you need to accommodate your plants] wide, with the ends of the cylinders left open. Put them around the base of your plants and stake them down with weed barrier staples (or just use tent stakes or wire or whatever you can find.) This will keep them from being moved by the wildlife and/or wind.

These should keep rabbits out of your plants, with the added benefits of being reusable year after year -and- not having to add supplemental holes to your neighborhood rabbits.

So whats the best remedy for hungry rabbits, besides shooting them? A friend told me to try cedar. Ever heard of that? Anybody? Stinkyattic? This damn rabbit is eating all of my sucker leaves. And a fence might be too obvious. Cant do that.

my sister has gone crazy, trying to save her flowers, from the neighborhood rabbits, so I did a little research ... she tried every home remedy there is, and nothing worked ... a weekend gardening show I listen to on the radio, touts 3 products, a 'Deer Scram', 'Mole Scram', and a 'Rabbit Scram' ... Google it, you'll find where to find it ... it 'supposedly' works ... I know the soap flakes, tiger piss, coyote poop, etc., don't work, maybe this will ... good luck, or get a pitbull

here, I did it for ya: Rabbit Scram Rabbit Repellent â?? Get rid of rabbits eating plants, keep them away from flowers and stop garden damage - Natural Rabbit Repellant

hey zeke, I'm not sure if this works, but I was asking someone in the know, and they recommended putting some hair around the base of your plant. my only concern would be DNA evidence. just a thought.

I got him. Hooray!! Hated to shoot the little fart, but I didn't have a choice. My babies have been out there since mid March. Couldn't afford to lose em. Btw, will my fan leaves grow back, in the spots where he ate them off? The stems are there. Just no fan leaves. I heard you really need all of your fan leaves if you want big buds. Thanks.

Sorry fan leaves will not grow back but branches may start at the nodes.
