sweet deer.
if ya make a few 4X8 frames with chicken wire over em, put em over certain areas of the plot, it will allow it to grow,
then ya move it to a spot that needs it, and plush plot will last all year, basically your rationing it.
if that dont make sense, your putting a screen down that the deer cant get through so it has time to grow...2X4's work great, i used old ones from a fence....
the deer are like us, when that 1st mator is done on the vine, i am there pickin it.
