My plot's already heavily fortified.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Ours sit in trees like vultures watching every move, so all our brassicas are netted or fleeced.

Ours treat my plot like Tescos. They'll be wanting a loyalty card next. They walk up and down the paths picking out what they fancy. But I did see the mutilated corpse of one today, so hats off to the foxes.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Pheasants are my biggest bother at present, they've even had a go at the Jap onions, and nothing's ever eaten them in the past. They must be sick of eating sprouts and cabbage.
