Cilantro from the herb garden. The biggest was 1-1/3lbs most around 3/4lbs . Very meaty 4 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skwerl58 707 #3 Posted September 5, 2020 Great job on the salsa. The deer jumped my 6 1/2 fence and destroyed my tomatoes, beans and cukes. Added extra row of wire and didn't stop them. Going 8 ft this winter 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heve never had a deer problem See then all the time in the yard they eat the hosta, prune my trees stand under the wild apple tree right behind the garden waiting for drops. but do not bother the garden. heck only turn the fence on early in the year. They seem to learn and have a memory. Now if I could figure put how to keep birds from pecking holes in the tomato and howto keep late blight at bay....

I would dump a few ounces at the base of each plant the first week and then a month or so later. Most blight around here is just blossom rot. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
