Today got home from work and the wife informed me a dear had some of her beans that just came up for a midnight snack, put a second radio in and turned up the one we Already had in, some one must have turned it down hopefully that does the trick. Headed to the pumpkin patch to take down the covers over the mains I had up because of the heat and something had ate a side vine from the first plant and two side vines from another plant. Looked around and there was some dear tracks, it must have been a dear that ate the 1790 main a week ago. I was very lucky it was real hot and I had to have the mains covered or I'm sure the dear would have ate the Mains instead of the side vines. hopefully the dear walked over the ends I only have a foot and a half of fence up and didn't jump the four foot high fence. now the fence is all four foot high and there is country cranked up on high playing in the patch and I will keep the mains coverd for now. The side vine I trained into a new main on the 1790 is four foot long and has a baby pumpkin that will open in the next week.
