Rabbits like my onions
« on: May 17, 2020, 10:42 »
Had a quick visit to the plot to water early this morning. Rather annoyed to find that Hampshire rabbits have given all my onions a haircut leaving them merely one inch tall. Interestingly they were definitely English rabbits as they didn’t touch the garlic in the same bed. Looks like I will have take preventative measures for all the veg going out tomorrow!!!
Keep digging

If my experience is anything to go by, you'll need to get some protection in before you plant out. My rabbit problem started the year the neighbour's cat disappeared. They ate the tops off my onions - which recovered but they weren't as robust and big as anticipated.
The rabbits didn't touch my rhubarb or potatoes, but everything else was fair game. Now the little devils can only look and yearn!
