Message: [QUOTE="Rey, post: 111821, member: 5248"] I guess when you are close to retiring hobby changed ^_^. My 80 yr old mom is unable to tend her garden and we have many deers, squirrels and chipmunks. This year I decided to continue her legacy and I try to have my first shot of vegetable and berries and make it my new hobby. I setup a motion detect sprinkler system on the perimeter and it seems to work, the deer no longer get close. Here are some shots of my first try.. Month of May: This was when I started. I have tomato, bokchoy,eggplant,zucchini,watermelon,canteloupe,and bitter melon. [ATTACH=full]23770[/ATTACH] Zucchini: I harvested the flower after I pollinate the female with a lens brush.my first A.I. (artifiicial inseminated) was murdered by slugs so I started to sprinkle some epsom salt: [ATTACH=full]23773[/ATTACH] After Epsom salt, I could not find any slugs around this morning..
