SOLUTION FOR DEER FENCING! Danny, I have used a fencing method for deer that has worked for 7 years. It's virtually invisible and extremely cheap. This concept was developed by a wildlife biologist from West Virginia. The key is to make an invisible fence that deer can not see. Therefore, do not mark the fence with ribbons, string, or anything. Set t-posts approximately 20 feet apart around any area that you wish to protect. The key component is 20# monofilament fishing line. No heavier, not lighter. 20 # line works perfectly. Start at 12" off the ground, and every 16", usually 4 or 5 stands total, enclose your area. They will not jump it because they literally can't see it. We use it around 3 garden areas and our orchard. We live in a high population of deer, and it has worked flawlessly every year. As silly as this seems, it just works. Cheap Walmart 20# fishing line works great and easy to remove, and replace. We discovered that our friends had used for years to protect their apple orchard. I think you will be surprised how well this works. We remove the posts each year after the garden is done. It's neat, clean, simple, and CHEAP! Hopefully, this helps! We have watched deer right at dusk, walk into the fence, back up, and walk around all the fence posts. It kinda freaks them out and confusing them what's pushing on them. It works for us. Hopefully, it will work for you and your deer problem. PEACE BROTHERS AND SISTERS BE SAFE

I have a tree nursery in north Florida. The only deer protection that works for me is a double fence and placing my pots close to the inner fence. Their bad depth perception keeps them from making the leap.

I am starting a tree nursery in North Central Florida and work for another. Although I have yet to get hit hard with Deer I am finding that intercropping Cassava or Chaya between trees they actually eat limits how much damage they can do. There are even more trees they do not eat. It gets tricky as the potted version of Chaya and Cassava does not get as tall as my potted mulberries and Figs that deer will eat. I did have success with my in ground garden alternating Chaya and Okra. I lost the okra on the edge but once the deer hit the Chaya they moved out of the garden and ignored the okra on the other side of the Chaya. The Cyanide in Cassava and Chaya seems to deter deer. The 8 foot fence sounds like a better option but I wanted to share how I deter them.

@victorialg1270 8 ай бұрын

We do the same. An inner fence 48 inches high. An outer 1/2 inch white electric tape at 24 inches high and 24 inches out from the fence. The tape is not hot. It only gives the deer the depth deterent.

I put tin pie pans on my yard fence. They don't seem to like the sound when the wind blows and they make noise against the fence. They just passed so hunting with bows is aloud here in town. They have done a lot of house building on farmland here and the deer moved into town. So now they are going to kill them. I have two bucks in the back yard, this years babies. Momma has left to mate. I am sure she won't be back.

The pink ribbon tells the deer about how tall the fence is so they know they can jump it. If you don't put any ribbon at all they will have trouble seeing the mesh fence in the dark and be spooked when they run into it. Some might still try to jump in but I've not had any get in my garden since I put up a 7 foot deer fence just like you have (I'm in NC but we are also in a bad drought right now). If you have to have that pink ribbon there, add some sticks to your t-posts and make the ribbon 2 or 3 feet higher than the fence. The deer will think the fence is as tall as the ribbon and they won't try to clear it.

Fence height is not the solution to deer. We have seen deer clear a 20 foot fence when we were working in citrus in Florida. The solution is to have multiple fences close ( 4 to 6 feet apart) at different heights. Deer cant determine the height and distance to jump.

It's not Rosemary that deters deer it's Wormwood. It affects their very sensitive sense of smell and they will avoid it like the plague. Bonus is you can give It to your chickens as a worming agent. It's just another thing we can do to not have to buy worming stuff and save money. I give my chickens pumpkin seeds ( home grown) and Wormwood and I have never had a worm problem in 40 years of having chickens.

I use to have a deer problem, until I put an eight foot fence around my main garden plot using two strands of 48" stock wire. I was told that deer wouldn't try to jump a fence if they couldn't see the top. I've never had a deer in the garden since I put it up. I used oilfield tubing for my posts. Yes, there was an initial cost up front, but it was well worth the investment. When I was tilling this area I would have to roll back both ends, but it was worth the effort to ensure that I had a crop. Now I use this area for my no-till garden. The type of fencing you are using makes it easy makes it easier for them to determine how high they have to jump.

@elizabethjohnson475 8 ай бұрын

So glad your solution is working for you. I've heard that deer can easily jump 8 ft. fencing. In all the solutions I've seen, what is the only solution that works consistently is two fences of 8 ft. tall, one inside the other, a few feet apart.

The deer are desperate. They can't eat the acorns because they need a lot of water when they do. My suggestion is in the future you plant some of your property in a wild animal food plot. This works by steering the deer etc. to another area and makes hunting very easy as they come to you instead of you trying to stalk them.

If you can find hanging pots, like the ones that you use on balcony rails, they would probably work to hang off the top of the dog pen. Just one extra space to plant small stuff like lettuces, radishes, and marigolds. It might be high enough that the deer won’t notice it right away.

From personal experience I can tell you deer will not eat onions. One year they cleaned out my entire garden but tried one onion and spit it out on the ground. They left 5 rows of the onions entirely alone. To keep the deer out of the large garden, I had some success using 3 strands of heavy duty monofilament fish line attached to flexible steel rerod about 20 feet apart. The idea was that they would walk into it and feel it exert preessure, try it a couple of times and then get spooked. The rerod would flex and prevent the line from breaking. Tried it about 4 or 5 years and it worked pretty well. Usually had 2-3 break-ins each season. Had a lot of trouble with birds eating my corn seed and pulling the plants out to get the seed on the bottom of the plant. Solved the problem by using a hacksaw to cut 36" roll of chicken wire into 18" wide rolls. Rolled out the wire, staked the ends down and the plants grew up thru the wire. When the plants got about 12" high, two people could lift the wire off the plants and they slipped right through . No problem. Never lost another corn plant. I assume the birds did not like walking on the wire.

As you replace the soil in the high tunnels at Deep South, Plant those finished sections in food crops ASAP so long as keeping them watered is not a problem. Maybe move the strawberry plants in them to this extra long raised bed at Pecan Grove, or replant back into the new soil in your high tunnel.. You can literally do a smaller section and transplant to the new sections as you go for minimal loss of berry plants & vines and grape vines in the high tunnels. And what is happening to the pineapple plants?

@mariehenriksen67 8 ай бұрын

Your deer fencing needs to be a minimum of 8ft, preferably 10 ft. As for the rest of the stuff,even though it'll be a pain, I would use like a large dog kennel or a chicken pen(minus the chickens)with a wire top on it. You can actually buy the large wire chicken pen/ dog kennels with tops . You could probably build them cheaper. If I built an 8ft tall perimeter fence to keep the deer out I would definitely add a couple of strands of hot wire at the top and one strand about middle ways of the fencing. Its an investment but its also your food you're protecting so its a worthwhile investment.

This is very exciting to see. Your new beds look fantastic and how fortunate you are to have free access to such great components for filling their up with all that wonderful soil. Watching this was so validating to me too and it's extra exciting because it will show people that you can too feed yourself from raised bed gardening. I didn't hear you say what kind of lumber. But the size looks like what I used when I built mine 5 years ago 2x6x12 is mine yours looks like longer length but still 2x6's. Mines Douglas Fir. It's held up to our extreme weather here in the KC area just so beautifully. The awesome thing is you can come back so easily and add another board or 2 on top to make them taller as you get older. I also did the hoops over them. I just slid PVC over rebar that was drove into the ground and it's held up. I have used it for bird netting, works great to keep out critters. Did you line the bottom with hardware cloth? I did mine, 1/4" in size and it was worth the investment because it has kept out the voles and groundhogs for 5 years now. You can drape shade cloth, plastic, insect netting or frost blankets over so easy. I love my raised beds. It will be fun to watch yours during our winter time. That is what got me hooked on KZfaq is watching southerners garden in the winter when we are up here in the frozen barren tundra between Christmas and St Patty's day 😂

The murasaki-29 turned out amazing where I live. Super sweet. Used the electroculture too.

Wise decisions :) You all are being tested that's for sure. It's dry here too right now...I was outside prepping beds and cleaning up summer spent plants in my tshirt in November....amazing in SWOhio. Solving your drought issues in farming might just be the most critical decision ever. You all have planned so well - thank you for sharing Danny.

Run a single strand wire about 2 to 3 feet from the main fence on the deer side not the garden side about midway up. It messes with their depth perception and it will stop the majority of them jumping over the high fence. That’s how the big Texas high fence ranches do it because a whitetail can clear an 8’ tight lock game fence.

Wow I am learning every day. Just the other day I saw a deer walking the side of my fence. Its doubled but I am in the process of making another enclosed cage inside of the double fencing. I guess they are really hungry. Thank you for continuing to educating us daily. Like you can see schools of them all the time now. DO YOU have a squirrel problem where you are and if so how do you deal with?

Hi Danny and Wanda. Your continuing to show us how you look for solutions in 2023. Those deer are certainly hungry enough to go over the fence. The deer need to eat and the bugs of course too. I like what your doing with the raised bed. I pray you have super good success with what your growing. I'm encouraged by what your doing although I know it's a lot of work but you've got some good plans. I'm looking forward to seeing how things grow 😀

The cold winter has hit here in Idaho. We have no hoop/greenhouse to grow anything in. I'm going to be experimenting a bit with a couple area's, just to see how it'll be temp wise. I'm hoping next yr will be much better, gardening wise. Due to a conflict with a new HOA neighbor (they currently live in one & think the world revolves around him), we didn't have a way to pump irrigation to water garden or anything, so not much grew.

Been raising my onions on raised beds with fabric . The best onions I ever had and less attention needed than in the row. Honestly I forget about then and they never fail to produce

Please explain the fabric use

I use the black ground cover fabric and burn holes in it. This will be my 4th year using the same fabric

You'll have to get yourself a Pneumatic field cannon that runs off of propane like farmers that grow Blueberries, strawberries, grapes, etc, use. They run off of a BBQ size propane tank or a 50 gallon tank. It blasts about every 3-5 minutes to spook any animal away.

That's a beautiful raised bed. For perennials perhaps you could transplant some of your multiplying onions? Have y'all ever grown Asparagus or is it too hot there? Or how about a strawberry bed? Lots of possibilities for perennial plants!
