By the tracks and droppings I've seen, it's usually mom and her fawns that raid cannabis gardens. Especially in lumber cuts where there's new sunlight and fresh browse.

Big bucks get to be really big bucks by staying away from areas once they know man (or a sasquatch) is in the area. Stay safe and happy growing!

Bullets? Seriously? Whatever happened to live and let live? Call me naive, but in my part of the universe no one would think of such an extreme measure.

I shoot one deer a year, maybe two if my family over the hill wants some venison. If the freezer was full I wouldn't be stalking this buck. I'd never shoot a deer just purely to keep it from getting into a crop.

Are the deer eating your plants? I have more if an issue with raccoons and skunks digging my plants up when they are small... Not so much of a problem with anything eating them...

they're not eating the weed. the goats sometimes nip off a top cola though. the problem with the deer is this buck is huge and he's walking around the grow site at night browsing all the new grass and stepping on the occasional plant. they're autos and they only grow about 12"-15" high and they don't recover well once they've been stepped on by a big stag.

My friend does food plots for deer and he uses some kind of easy to put up and take down electric fence... It works really well to keep deer out until you want them there...

I'd love to fence it, I've actually got an electric fence controller - the problem is this site is exposed enough as it is and I'm worried about do gooders spotting it. this shit is still illegal in my little corner of the world.

As the title suggests, wild deer are starting to make an appearance and I need the best deer repellent money can buy or that man can make. I'm currently relying on bullets, which although the best deer repellent in existence is quite labor intensive as it involves sitting there all night. I have tried chopped onions and chilli powder mixed, not sure if it's making much difference. Any tips?

.300AAC suppressed bolt action with a 220 grain cast pill does the trick without alerting everyone for two miles, but a big old springfield would be nice to add to the gun safe :)

This is Diesel.....Cana Corso, he loves chasing and catching things. He has run down and caught several deer. He won't harm them, just hold them down until u get there. They were originally bread by the Romans for hunting down slaves....the deer are wary of our farm...

Empty plastic bottle with cling free dryer sheet put inside. Perforate the bottle hang from your plants. The nice smell is a deterant for most big game we don't hunt them wearing gear out of the dryer unless huge amount of scent cover are applied. Won't help with rabbits and small animals but it's been effective in keeping the bear population away from my outdoor herb. The bottle blowing in wind makes small noise which keeps animals away as well. Good luck with it
