So i came home late tonight after being out for about 3 days..
i layed down w/ my girl for a few hours, felt like i should check up on my crop for some weird reason,
and once i walk through and my spotlight turns on, i hear somebody running away through my tall grass,
straight out of one of my crop spots. It didnt sound like a deer hopping away or any animal, it sounded like a person running for their life. I had a flashlight but it was still hard to see much since it was pitch black.(Spotlight is up on the hill alittle bit further up) I walk into my crop to find a head snapped off of one of my babygirls, it wasn't chewed on it was just straight snapped off, i'm thinking they didn't do it on purpose, but on accident when they heard me coming. There are very few that know about my grow.. basically just family living with me that wouldn't gain anything from stealing my shit because they will benefit from it anyway. There is one old p.o.s friend from last year that knows this particular spot. But I am still unsure. I just don't know why they would already be looking when it's not even flowering time yet :/
But i was just looking for ANY advice such as traps, security measures etc. Cheap and effective. I wish i could leave my Pit tied out on the runner all night waiting to rip somebody's face off but unfortunately i care and love my dog too much to leave her out like that. Just any advice on what any of you guys do to protect your crops would be helpful i suppose.. Just don't know what to do really and getting pretty pissed off about this. I never really had to worry about shit like this but i feel like this season I'm going to have to. Thank you for reading, any input would be great
