It is unreal how much stuff is gone each morning. The person I feel sorry for is the one that took parsley and the catnip. I got a feeling someone is going to be very sick.

We had the same crap happin to us last year with our sweet corn. My fault for plantin it so close to the road, wont do that again.

I'd say the crooks got away with over half of our crop, my bets are it was one person but I cant say cause I didnt see him doin it. Hes the black sheep of the family down the road aways.

Pisses me off!

That really sucks.  Somebody is always looking for the easy way.

They'd probably steal the camera too  :(

Good idea though.

Yes they do but you can lock them up and hide them and they will work at nite

The heck with that run you a Hot Wire. Make sure it is rated for 20 miles or better. You will know exactly when they enter the garden or field!!

Warning: Do Not use grounded paint sprayers around wire. If you get too close and an arc is created you WILL have a Blow Torch in your hand and more than likely a load in your shorts!!

Plant the row closest to the road as field corn and/or popcorn, not sweet corn.    Hope he has a good dentist..   ;D

I'm movin the crop over by the dog kennel this year, they will have to go down my drive to get to it.

Squirt, its easy to tell the diff between the 3 just by lookin at the plant.

Most folks don't have a problem if you knock on the door and ask either. Especially when there is a big field of it. At least around here one doesn't have any problems.

Had some Asian friends who lived in SF.  They had a problem with someone stealing fruit from their trees.  Simple solution.  Dig punji pit.  Add cover that a cat can't break thru but a human can.  Wait.  After a week the cover was broken thru and some sticks were bloody.  End of problem.   ;D ;D

I wouldnt have a problem if they asked, heck I give most of it away anyhow.
