i was thinking of chicken wire wrapped around the plant but i was also thinking about motion detection lighting and camera. to add to the chicken wire i was thinking about putting wood dowels into the ground about 1 foot apart and then a metat conduit about 6 ft up. attach the chick wire to it and cover the top with chick wire also. i was thinking about the addition of a powered fence device simular to a cow fence the farmers use where i grew up to keep the cows in(not deadly but hurts like hell). then around that till about 3 ft off the ground using a plactic fence about 6 inch away from metal so my dogs dont go near the electrified fence.

do you think this would be to much? also i would do this when plant is about 4 ft high.
