Urgent: Two of my plants are dead!!

please help me.. im absoulutely devasted. I planted 9 clones last week up in the bush behind my house, the soil is very good... one died, i knew it would because it barely had any leaves.. but i went up there to check on the remaining 8 today.
TWO ARE DEAD.. honestly it looks like they got pulled up, and something ripped and shredded the leaves because there were parts of them all around. im so fucking pissed off i feel like drinking a bottle of rubbing alcohol.

i have no idea how this could have happend, they looked ok last night and today, they are shredded. i seen a slug close by but.. the leaves were pulled apart!!
what happend! and how do i protect the rest of them? PLEASE HELP

Man, I can feel your hurt. I used to do outside, grows and that is the shit I used to deal with. Sounds like animal damage, deer are possible suspect. Any plant eating animal is a possibility.

Enclosing with wire screen, is likely the most certain though the most conspicuous. My guess is you're looking for something a little easier. Mothballs can be a good repellent, many animals don't like them. They won't bother the weed, and you remove them later after the plants get bigger. A spray of garden soap can be used. Animals hate the taste. If you use that, search RIU for soaps that are safe with mj. Dowside if animal has to chew on a plant to get the taste, so a little damage will happen.
