In my experience all deer deterrents work best if the deer have something else good to eat in the immediate neighborhood; and none of them work very well if you're trying to keep the deer out of the only thing edible by deer for some distance. A nice green clover cover crop (close to but outside the area you're trying to protect) helps a good deal. Deer grazing on it will only add to the fertilizer benefits. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 6A now I think Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
