I do have a bunch of barbed wire sitting around from removing it from my property which used to have cattle...that way I could have protected ladies AND free deer jerky, I don't even think that's against the law as it's not really 'hunting' =)
no problem sexing them seeing i look at them everyday more than once.and i always pick up every one daily cuase they don't dry out the same time either and if ya used just one or two to judge water times ya going to get a few too wet and worse if some can't get dried out properly. so if ya don't pick each one up ya are guessing on one of the most important issues when growing nice green consistant plants , the water content in the dirt.
