yea seems like no matter where your at in the world, there's always something munching on a marijuana plant lol. starting your plants indoors for the first month makes a HUGE difference. One of my biggest problems as well as other growers is slugs, an army of those nasty cocksuckers can destroy plants overnight. The easiest thing I found is to buy a box of slug bait pellets and sprinkle around plants and reapply every 2-4 weeks, I have very little to no slug problems anymore. I don't know how well the human piss thing works, but anytime I'm back at my spot I will piss around the perimeter lol. Rabbits are another big concern where I live, Ive had hundreds of plants wiped out by rabbit throughout the years. The best way is simple chicken wire around the circumference of the plants or plant. I seen somebody mention using soap, and thats a no no around here, it attracts mice and rats like crazy! their attracted to the fat in the soap. Its really about trial and error, every grower thinks their way is the best, you just have to do some experimenting and see what works best for you. Other than that, Give those plants some nice fluffy soil to grow in, lots of light, lots of water and nutrients and aloota luvin and your on your way to some monster plants. hope that helps, happy toking
