was wondering if any one puts chicken wire up around their patches to keep deer, rabbits, and the etc. creatures out?

I use black or brown spray paint and spray it down before using. That way there is no shiny metal to reflect sunlight,

Hick said:"hotspots".... hee hee..
not really 4u. the bright shiny wire attracts unneeded attention, burning it or painting it reduces that.
:yeahthat: :goodposting: Those of us that spend time in the woods, can spot bright shining thing from 30+yds. A bright spot of light will draw your attention from a long distants thru a shadowy area.

specially deep in the forest, where there are no shinny things
common sense tells me, that it could be the difference between getting found and not
camaflauge stealth and sneaky

Yeppers,
Stealth is one of those things you just can't argue. Try night vision, and go stealthy is one of my motto's.
I am called upon to a search now and then, (search and rescue), I am a tracker with over thirty seven years under my belt. I am a well trained observer, and my vision is normal. I have just trained myself to look at stuff.
Sometimes the dogs do lose the scent, and they have three different types of trained dogs, such as air scent, ground scent, and water scent. Believe it dogs can specialize.
A dog cannot say out loud however, " Hey dude look at this stone that has been kicked over, or, "hey I found a piece of chewing gum".
It's really kinda, "what doesn't belong in this picture, or, "what appears as a straight line", and heck yes, anything that shines will catch an eye fast. I have learned how to back trail very well with this training, and my success record is one that I am pleased with. Should you want to see that you are doing well in your stealth, Ha-Ha, then watch a couple of Leo's walk right past you and your grow totally oblivious to you and yours, LOL that will make your year.
smoke in peace

Layed under a multifloural rose for 3 hours with Leo walking within 30 ft and they never saw me. I still get that bunch of bushes nutes every year.
ah so tight you could not drive a needle up it with a sledgehammer.

Christmas tree growers here use green plastic mesh sleeves to protect the seedling trees. They don't stand out, much. They are about 2 feet tall and the plants grow out the top when ready. Looks like those chinese finger torture toys, lol.

not really, I sit at a potential spot for a day, and see how the sun hits it, and then if i like it, I dig my hole 100 meters away, cover it with plywood, dirt and brush.

when I did my outdoor thing, I would use chicken wire domes about 3' high, and pull them up later after they were tall enuff for the critters to not mess with. The dome also kept the deer from being able to get their head down in it. A couple other techniques I used were
1) plant when it is raining outside. something my uncle taught me when I was a kid helping him. How many have planted and went back a couple days later to find your plant dug up and laying there by the hole, dried out. For some reason the coons and skunks will smell that moist "good" soil, and thier curiosity makes them dig the thing up...not sure what they are looking for worms or grubs. But My Uncle found that if he planted in the rain, all the ground is moist and the critters don't smell your spot as easy...I carried this out in my grows and they would leave my stuff alone.
2) I take dried hot peppers, cayenne, crushed red pepper...anything hot, and pour it in a complete circle around each plant...when the critters come sniffin around...well have you ever snorted a line of cayenne??? me either but it hurts just thinking about it...they don't mess with it.
3) dog hair used the same as above. I read on here somewhere not to use dog hair because leo could do dna testing on the hair and find out it belongs to your dog...I don't know who posted it ...but I have not laughed so hard in a long time. There is no way in H E dbl hockey sticks that leo is going to do that...or have the funding. I'd like to see the rookie cops sgt's face when he asks about turning in dog hair to the lab LMAO!
4) wear a disguise to your grow, at least a hoody pulled over with sunglasses, and cover tattoo's....at least in Ohio and Michigan people have been i.d.'d by motion sensor cameras that leo sets out on a grow...so watch for them and if you see the camera's take em with you when you leave. The camera's have become cheap enough now that they ARE USING them! I don't know how well they stick in court, because you could say you were out looking for your dog and you ran across someones grow...but do you really want to have to go that far?

Are you implying that you grow on someone elses property? Not cool dude. Trespassing onto someones property is bad enough, but if you dig a whole and put plywood over the top, etc, you suck. If I found you on my property, you wouldnt like it much, I can promise you that!
I dont mean this post to be infamatory, or start a flamewar, I just wanted to spurn some thought. People pay good money for land and its not right for a person to go and do something like this. Its irresponsible and makes all of us look bad when you get caught.
Your gonna have to 14+ft to keep deer out. But please don't worry,I've found the best thing to keep CRITTERS OUT!!!! For sure. Here in So. Oregon we have two (2) big game parks. One (1) is on I-5 in Roseburg, and the other is on HWY 101, just So. of Bandon on the coast. (Some one could really make allot MONEY here.) You go to these game parks and ask for Lion, Cougar, dung. You put big cat poo around your gals, and it works better then any fence you'll bye. Critters big and small will give your plot a wide berth, won't even come close. I guess if "the price is right", I could pick some up.Peace out
