This year was my first attempt to grow. I started nine bag seeds from some really good stuff. Seven sprouted and got off to a great start. Two weeks ago I planted them outdoors in, what I thought, were prime locations on some private land. Two in one spot, two in another, and the final three in yet another spot. Each "spot" was at least a mile away from the others. Although I did worry some about helicopter flyovers this fall, there was no way anyone else was going to find my plants.
Yesterday, I went back out to check them. We've had plenty of rain, but I was curious to see how they were doing and if they were showing sex yet.
Five of the seven were completely gone. The only clue to their disappearance were deer tracks in the soft dirt surrounding the planting spot. The two that were still there had been chewed down to nearly nothing, although it did appear that they were trying to put on some new growth.
Here's hoping those two can somehow bounce back and at least one of them turns out to be female.
I may not try outdoor again. Deer are so thick here. I literally see dozens of them every day. Indoor isn't a much better option for me either. Growing just may not be in the cards for me.
