I hade 7 seedlings outside. I checked on them and they were fine. I went to drain the main vein, and came back and what do I see? 4 raccoons making a snack out of my seedlings, luckily they where all females and they got 4 out of seven, so I was lucky, but I don't want this to happen again, should I shoot the raccoons with my 45? Or what?

it would be what i would do!

set up raccoon traps!

ahh dont you just hate mother nature sometimes?

if you have some coons....you probably have a lot more. 2 nights ago i caught 2 in a single live trap. they must have walked in side by side,only thing i can figure. anyway, when i went to release them, (was after stray cats) there were 3 more coons in the bushes. and i live in the middle of town.

you better find a way to keep ALL the coons off your stash. dont know how, but dont think you could kill every coon in your neck of the woods even if you stayed up every night for the rest of your life.

yeah, but drastic measures call for you to do what must be done. fox piss is another option, but bullets are cheaper!

they're attracted to some types of fertilizers

that sucks i would use a combo of traps and coyote or some kind of predater urine to combat them. if its in your backyard and you have a bigger dog leave him out

just cuz they are hungry is no good reason to kill them. this could be your karma be thankful you have something left. killing animals could bring worse karma. maybe use some wires around the plants to keep most animals out. since they are just seedlings they dont have to be in the ground yet. could be in a cup somewhere no animal could reach.

If they are ruthless pot eating raccoons.... get a trap that doesnt kill them..

i used to date a girl named karma. a lot of good that did me. shoot the little fuckers
